In ''[[The Ballad Of Gay Tony]]'', whose timeline intersects the original GTA IV frequently, Gay Tony mentions in [[I Luv LC]] that "the banks" had been bailed out which was made official in early October. A Weazel News segment on the radio says that the events in [[Paper Trail]] and [[Entourage]] were about one month apart. The entire plot also likely happens in less than three months - a celebrity named [[Cloe Parker]] has a three-month-old child, and in tabloid tradition there would have been extensive coverage of her pregnancy. The real-life New York City begins to snow around late November, and it never snows in the game. | In ''[[The Ballad Of Gay Tony]]'', whose timeline intersects the original GTA IV frequently, Gay Tony mentions in [[I Luv LC]] that "the banks" had been bailed out which was made official in early October.

''Grand Theft Auto IV'' follows the story of [[Niko Bellic]]; Before the events of the game, he fought in the Bosnian War as a teenager, was betrayed by one of the members (which got most of the squad killed) and is now obsessed with getting revenge. After fighting in the war, bad circumstances led him to work for [[Ray Bulgarin]] in human trafficking, which ended with Niko being blamed for a sinking ship and leaving Europe to escape Bulgarin's wrath and power. While spending the next 7 months in the merchant navy he made the decision to move to Liberty City, where his cousin [[Roman Bellic]] claimed to be living a life of luxury (as well as to hunt down one of the two suspected traitors, [[Florian Cravic]]). | ''Grand Theft Auto IV'' follows the story of [[Niko Bellic]]; Before the events of the game, he fought in the Bosnian War as a teenager, was betrayed by one of the members (which got most of the squad killed) and is now obsessed with getting revenge.
