====[[Fist]]====
====[[Fist]]====
Unarmed, the player has the choice of disarming, counteracting a move, ground punches and kicks, lefts and rights, and uppercuts and jabs. Moves can be strung together to create a combo. On some occasions, the player can perform "Stun" hits. Also, fighting unarmed is the best way to fight someone without killing them, something that can be important in several missions. With the fist selected as current weapon, the player can pick up random objects off the streets, such as a plank, a brick, or a bottle, however the player cannot switch weapons while an item is picked up, unless the item is a thrown item such as a brick.

All items on the street thet the player picks up do the same damage when thrown and send the target to the floor. This is rather strange when the player picks up and throws ciggaretes and coffe cups.

Line 37: Line 37:
The bat can be swung left or right. The player can also block attacks with it. The bat can be useful when the player doesn't want to draw attention to themselves, since it is considered a "silent" weapon, though less so than the Knife. The bat is a superior weapon against an unprotected opponent to the Knife, as it will floor them in one blow and kill them with the second blow. In [[The Lost and the Damned]], the Baseball Bat can be used to attack enemies during a motorcycle race.

====Brick====
*Anywhere in Liberty City
The brick can be found in junkyards around liberty city and can be picked up with L1 or LB. The brick is the only thrown melee weapon and is the only thrown weapon that does not explode. The brick will easily knock someone over but it is not ideal to use it against AK-47s and M4s.
