:{{Rebut}}If Niko got shot in the leg and he would limp to cover it would give the enemy plenty of time to kill him. It would get annoying after sometime as you could not get to cover quickly and you would be killed.  It would also be annoying that if your health was low and you couldn't shoot well, you'd also be killed easily.

::{{Gripe}}Adding to the realism that the player should use more caution when engaged in a fire fight.  Okay, so maybe not everytime Niko is shot, but how about when low on health he should limp and not aim too well?

:::{{Rebut}}Just think for a minute, you're about to pass the mission but you're low on health.  With that feature, you could not kill the last couple of guys you needed to


{{Gripe}}Wish there was the ability to prone and shoot.

:{{Rebut}}Try barely holding the fire button, that will put you in free aim mode.

::{{Gripe}}Right, I know about the "Free aim mode," in fact, I don't even use auto-aim at all.  Just saying that I wish you could lie down and shoot, say as in SOCOM.

:::{{Rebut}}Niko isn't exactly a Navy SEAL. Plus, lying down and shooting is really for when your taking cover when there are no good boxes or cars to cover behind. 


{{Gripe}}When tossing a hand grenade into a gang, some of them still survive the blast, despite being thrown directly at their feet.

::{{Gripe}}Not these enemies, they just get right back up and shoot at you like nothing happened.  No slumped over, walking away in pain, nothing.  They just slide back into cover as if no grenade went off.  Also, an annoying glitch with some is the enemy can be seen "standing up" in mid-air after a blast and land back on their feet.

{{Gripe}}GTA IV's cover system is the crappiest I have ever seen. It doesn't properly work half the time, or Niko takes cover in the wrong area. Gears of War's cover system is better, and GTAIV's system is supposedly taken from that. What happened?

:{{Rebut}}It isn't crappy, you just don't know how to use it.  When I play GTA4, the cover system always works fine, and the game automatically selects the nearest cover, not the smartest, due to the game isn't as smart as you think it should be.  Its only 2008, and not all systems used in video games are perfect.
