Meltdown (GTA IV): Difference between revisions

'''Meltdown''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. The [[diamonds]] obtained from the [[Taking in the Trash|previous mission]] were never delivered to [[Ray Boccino]]. Believing [[Luca Silvestri|Luca]] and his friends are to blame, he sends [[Niko Bellic]] to [[Castle Gardens]] to retrieve the diamonds from them.  

== Description ==

Niko finds Luca's [[Lokus|car]] in Castle Gardens. As he approaches, they can be overheard discussing a trip to [[Las Venturas]]. Niko confronts them about the missing diamonds, but Luca feigns innocence and claims he gave them to Ray. Taking offense to Niko, [[Joseph DiLeo |Tunafish]] insults him and then speeds away. Niko steals a nearby [[Banshee]] and chases Luca through the streets of [[Algonquin]] and [[Star Junction]] until Luca's car eventually crashes outside the [[Middle Park]] bathrooms. (Note: as the on-screen directions indicate, Niko's job during the chase is not to kill Luca, so don't try doing any drive-by shooting. The Banshee has a rather low damage limit before it blows up, so the key is to try to avoid hitting anything and not lose their car until it arrives at the park.

Luca, [[Johnny Barbosa |Johnny Spaz]], Tunafish, and an unnamed assosiate escape on foot and flee from the wrecked car. Niko kills the unnamed assosiate, Johnny Spaz, and Tunafish before making his way into the bathrooms where Luca had fled. Niko shoots open the locks of the bathrooms stall doors until he eventually finds the one Luca is hiding in. Luca attempts to bribe Niko with a cut of the diamonds in return for sparing his life, but Niko [[Executions | executes]] him with a shot to the neck.
