I might shed some light. If you watched The Cousins Bellic scene Roman says that his English is better than his Serbian. [[User:Kanzler31|Kanzler31]] 03:16, 22 November 2010 (UTC) | |||

== Jimmy == | |||
When does Niko get called Jimmy? [[User:The Tom|The Tom]] 11:09, September 26, 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Francis McReary calls him Jimmy at the Police Station during "Final Interview" cutscene. -- [[User:peterp|peterp]] | |||
== Niko's Preferred Choices? == | |||
I think that the optional murders should be included somewhere on Niko's page. I remember seeing on a wikia, or the old page, that players determined that Niko would kill Playboy X based on his personality. Even though the game gives the player the choice, there are things Niko would actually do if put into that position. Think about it, he came to Liberty City to find Florian and get revenge, but discovering it was Darko, he wanted to kill him, though still given the choice. At the end, I doubt Niko would have worked with Dimitri again, claiming that he didn't want to aswell. -[[User:darkye|darkye]] | |||
:It's a matter of opinion. The choice is up to the player so Niko could not have a preferred choice at that situation. It's either one or the other, not one preferred. It's the same idea whether you want Niko to kill innocent civilians during free roam but more restrictive. In other situations when there was no choice, that would be Niko's preferred choice.-'''[[User:Spaceeinstein|spaceeinstein]]''' 07:14, 17 January 2011 (UTC) | |||
Yes, but there are choices where Niko feels better and more happy than having done the other choice. For example, when Niko goes to kill Dwayne, he hesitates to shoot him. But when killing Playboy X, he chases him down and in the alley Niko goes up to him and shoots him. -[[User:darkye|darkye]] | |||
You really can't just say "niko would do this or niko wouldn't do that". Thats kinda the whole reason for these choices, so your involved in the story. If you choose deal Thats what niko's preferred choice...if you chose revenge again then that would make it his preferred choice. and for Those decisons you think he wouldn't do, well thats YOUR opinion..not everyone elses. | |||
== Niko's Appearence == | |||
I know Niko seems to be based off of Sasha from Behind Enemy Lines, and you can even re-create his outfit from the film, but I have another theory on the inspiration for Niko's appearence. | |||
Niko's default appearence may have been inspired by the character [[wikipedia:Tyler Durden|Tyler Durden]] (played by [[wikipedia:Brad Pitt|Brad Pitt]]) from the 1999 film ''[[wikipedia:Fight Club (film)|Fight Club]]''. | |||
In the film, Tyler wears a wide-collared shirt with a leather jacket as well as track pants and work boots, much like Niko's outfit. Other than the colouring, the only difference is that Tyler's shirt is more colourful and is button-up while Niko's is less colourful and zips up. Also, at the end of the film, Tyler shaves his head. | |||
That's just my opinion and I thought it was worth noting the similarities. | |||

== Music == | |||
Though Niko has no favorite radio station, Niko says he doesn't have a favorite music, as you have the ability in gameplay to change the station. [[Pathos]] asks Niko if he listens to hip hop, and Niko replies "some of its good, but not too much." He may not like rap, but he sure doesn't dislike it.

== Shouldn't another alias for him be "Nikolai"? == | |||
I remember Tom Goldberg calling him Nikolai. We should put that under as one of his alias. --[[User:TheJustinAllenK|TheJustinAllenK]] 05:01, 12 September 2011 (BST) | |||
Nikolai is not a alias for niko its just an assertion from tom goldberg | |||
However, throughout the rest of his chat with Niko, he still keeps on calling him Nikolai. Also, Fatty Romans Cousin is also an assertion that only Vlad calls him. | |||

== Regarding War Crimes and Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome == | |||
1.Definition of atrocities: An extremely wicked or cruel act: "war atrocities".<br> | |||
2. Definition of war crimes: The legal definition of War Crimes is Excessive brutality during war, in contravention of an international treaty or convention. The body of laws that define a war crime are the [[wp:Geneva Conventions|Geneva Conventions]]. | |||
There is nothing stated, or any proof that Niko has commited any specific war crimes, the atrocities he experienced can be just the standared murdering he did during the war, and the fact that twelve friends died right before his eyes and at one point he found is Aunt raped and murdered. There is also nothing that suggests Niko has Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome, especially since he's been in constant danger and firefights his entire life since the war. It's all he really knows at this point. Therefore I'll be removing these Trivia points.

:In the interest of aiding any further discussion that may arise from this, I would just like to add that based on [http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0077027/quotes this conversation] (Ctrl-F, search for "children"), Niko was supposedly involved in murdering 50 school children during his time in the war. I doubt that that can be considered ''standard murdering''.

I agree with AJ here so far - there's nothing really to say he has PTSD or has committed war crimes. Both of those things are assumptions based on assumptions. The phrases he uses during gunfights might be things he said during the war, so say THAT. Don't assume he has flashbacks, and don't assume they're caused by PTSD. As for the war, that children quote is a good find, but it doesn't say whether Niko did it. He admits he killed/smuggled/sold people, but it just says he walked into a village and ''saw'' 50 dead children, not that he murdered them. It's more suggesting how horrible the war was, and he doesn't like that he was involved. I'm happy to mention those points, but don't make the assumptions on top.

:The only reason I added the war crime trivia is because that it was mentioned in the article. From article: "During the war, Niko both witnessed and committed numerous atrocities" though now I know the difference between the two.[[User:Gtajesus|Gtajesus]] ([[User talk:Gtajesus|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Gtajesus|edits]]) 12:59, 4 July 2012 (UTC) | |||
Yeah, I definently agree that suggesting that Niko has flashbacks/PSTD is ridiculous - There is no evidence for any of | |||
that, and if Rockstar wanted to make that a part of his character, they would have shown it in the game (we would have seen the flashbacks). I was really just adding to the list of bad experiences that AJ started.
