EasterEggs-GTAIV-TitleThe sign of "No Hidden Content This Way" under the Statue of Happiness in Grand Theft Auto IV.


Secrets

HappinessIsland-GTAIV-HiddenVehicle01 HappinessIsland-GTAIV-HiddenVehicle02
  • Car on Happiness Island
    On the west side of Happiness Island, there is a random spawn that can be a car. This is unusual as there is no way a vehicle can be brought on to the island unless unloaded by a ship.
Westdyke-GTAIV-HiddenVehicle
  • Sultan RS behind an abandoned mansion
    Behind an old, rundown mansion in Westdyke, Alderney at the end of the dirt roads, there is the hidden, extremely rare Sultan RS parked in some bushes. This is practically the only way to find the car ingame. The only other way to obtain it is if the game has it stored in the temporary memory (perhaps because one appeared in one of Brucie's Races), and automatically spawns it parked or driving around the streets.
  • Re-start a breakdown vehicle by phone
    If your vehicle has been damaged to the point that the engine has stopped, calling any number on the mobile phone will start it again. This does not work if the car had set on fire.

Easter Eggs

StatueofHappiness-GTA4-statue'sface File:Hot Coffee Cup Torch.jpg
StatueOfHappiness-GTAIV-NoHiddenContentThisWay StatueOfHappiness-GTAIV-HeartOfLiberty02
  • Face of the statue & the Hot Coffee

The Statue of Happiness' face bears a striking resemblance to former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. This resemblance, along with the cup of coffee in her right hand, may be a reference to the Hot Coffee controversy which Clinton took investigation in, also suggesting that new regulations be put on video games.

  • "No Hidden Content This Way" sign

The southern door has a sign: "No Hidden Content This Way". This is similar to the sign on top of the Gant Bridge in GTA San Andreas and The Hidden Sign in GTA III.

  • Heart of Liberty
    Within the Statue of Happiness is a giant beating heart, supposedly the "Heart of Liberty City." In GTA IV, access into the area is only achievable via an entrance marked by a "No Hidden Content This Way" sign at the upper level of the statue's pedestal, which can only be reached by helicopter. Once inside the pedestal, the player must scale a ladder up to the midsection of the statue, where the heart is located. It can be shot at, but nothing happens. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, if you drink too much, you will re-spawn at random locations, one of which may be the Heart of Liberty City.

  • Maverick's warning message

    There is an easter egg in The Libertonian; the plaque describing the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops. The texture of the text is low-resolution, and thus hard to read properly, but reads, roughly:
    "This big bastard took a few days to knock up because it had to be done by the sole hand of a prop artist. But alas, and feast your eyes on this 21000 poly maniac. Trex right up your arse. How do you like them apples?".

Easter eggs references to previous games

File:RIP graffiti (GTA4).pngGraffiti found on certain run down apartment corridors. File:GTA 4 easter Egg.jpgA modified version of the above image.
  • The "RIP/we'll miss you" graffiti
    On the staircases in most apartment blocks in the game, you may spot some graffiti referring to past protagonists set in GTA III canon (Claude, Tommy, Carl (CJ), Toni, and Vic), that suggests they have passed away, though it is likely metaphorical as GTA III canon is over so they won't be seen again. The only onscreen death of a protagonist so far is Victor Vance and Johnny Klebitz . The graffiti is intended to serve as "a little joke for fans of the series", as a different design approach to GTA IV meant the games' timeline could only inherit various fictional brand names and certain radio personalities; it is, however, no indication as to whether or not GTA III canon has been retired.[1]
UrbanMythsRunWild-GTAIV-LibertyTreeOnlineNews
  • Myths from San Andreas
    There is a Liberty Tree article that talks about urban myths in Liberty City. This could be referring to the myths that were created around San Andreas.
File:BabiesOvernight1.jpg File:Petsovernight.jpg

    On Happiness Island, in front of the entrance to the statue, it is possible to find a street-artist's easel/display stand with several pictures.

The easel can also be seen in south-central Algonquin, very close to where Hossan's random encounter takes place and in front of the The Libertonian.
  • Hot Coffee in Liberty City
    There are signs scattered throughout Liberty City that say "Hot Coffee Shop", clearly a reference to the Hot Coffee sexual content and controversy from GTA San Andreas
  • San Andreas on TV
    One of the TV shows is a program called The Venturas Poker Challenge. It features a casino in Las Venturas from GTA San Andreas. When shown, the commercial doesn't have GTA IV graphics and art, it features GTA San Andreas graphics, the most obvious being the building designs and taxi. Similarly, footage of the Vinewood sign from GTA San Andreas is used for another TV ad; it is recognizably San Andreas animation due to the transmission tower visible right behind it, which was also in the earlier game.
  • Chiliad8888
    Niko can receive an email from Chiliad8888, which calls the recipient "Pilgrim", makes many spiritually- and philosophically-charged (and anti-government) comments, ends with "Feel the Truth, Live the Freedom", and links to whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com. On this website there is a discussion topic titled, "Jump to a new level of Spirituality" posted by "Trooth". This discussion thread includes more philosophical thoughts, mentions Peyote, and provides a map of the Unique Stunt Jumps in Liberty City. "Chiliad" was also the name of a location in San Andreas (the highest mountain, in the southwestern wilderness). These clues suggest that the author of the email and discussion topic is The Truth, a character from GTA San Andreas.
  • Drawing on prison chart
    If you look closely at the chart behind Gerry on the prison, you can see the penis-shape drawing the students in GTA III had drawn.
  • Ringtones referring previous games
