Welcome to the main page of this wiki!
--------------------------------------
When editing this page, please note a few things:
* The inexperienced may want to check out the "How to help" section on the "community portal" article linked on the sidebar.
* Remember this page is the most public face of the wiki - test edits are best done on a separate page.
* Sections within "<! --" and "-- >" markers (without the spaces) - like this entire section - are hidden comments, and can be separated by several lines. Be sure not to break them.
* We strongly recommend you do not change the <mainpage-rightcolumn-start /> style tags - these keep your page format safe from unexpected breaks.
Please note that Wikia protection policy advises against the protection of this page unless it is the active target of vandalism.
* Protecting the main page can do more harm than good, for example by preventing links being added.
* See http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Protection for more info.

The main page design code follows. Edit me!

===The notorious Liberty City makes a repeat appearance in GTA IV===
[[Liberty City in GTA IV|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] has been remodeled to look much more like New York City compared to its [[GTA III era]] [[Liberty City|renditions]], featuring [[Broker]] (Brooklyn), [[Algonquin]] (Manhattan), [[Dukes]] (Queens), [[Bohan]] (Bronx) and [[Alderney]] (New Jersey). The total map area is slightly smaller than that of [[San Andreas]], but is immensely more detailed and has no "wasted" open space such as countryside or desert.
