'''TW@''' (pronounced ''[[wp:Twat|twat]]'') is an [[Internet in GTA IV|internet]] café that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]], and is interactive in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] and its [[GTA IV Episodes|episodes]]. The "TW", in "TW@", stands for "Totally Wireless", as can be seen outside some TW@ Internet Cafés. This phrase is a take on "Totally where it's at." | '''TW@''' (pronounced ''[[wp:Twat|twat]]'') is an [[Internet in GTA IV|internet]] café that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]], and is interactive in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] and its [[GTA IV Episodes|episodes]].

In | In [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]], TW@ internet cafés can be used to browse the in-game [[Websites in GTA IV|websites]] from the start of the game. The Internet is formally introduced to the player in the mission [[Logging On]] where the player has to set up an [[Eyefind.info|Eyefind]] e-mail account. It costs [[Money|$]]1 to use the computer. The stores can be [[Store Robbery|robbed]] by simply opening the cash register and taking from $10 to $170, but doing so will usually result in a one star [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level]]. But this can be avoided, if the player crouches behind the counter of the Snack Shop, out of sight and then opens the cash register, no one will notice and will act as if nothing has happened. In the introductory cutscene to the Logging On mission, Roman actually speaks the name of the establishment, confirming that it is indeed pronounced "twat". | ||
In [[Grand Theft Auto V|GTA V]], the café returns as a non-interactive business with two stores located in [[Little Seoul]], although one is available for rent suggesting it has closed down. | |||
