Before GTA V: 10 Greatest Deaths In GTA History

9. Ivan Bytchkov - GTA IV

Gta Ivan In recent times, deaths and murders have been given more interaction in that Rockstar allow the player to decide a character's fate in certain situations. A feature known as "Executions" were introduced to GTA IV that, when triggered, showed a cinematic of protagonist Niko Bellic carrying out the kill. One of our favourite executions came in the mission "Ivan the Not So Terrible" which finds Ivan desperately clinging onto the end of a broken fire escape after a short rooftop chase with Niko. The player can either shoot Ivan, help him to safety or watch a cut scene in which Niko stomps on his fingers as the poor guy plummets toward a sticky end on the sidewalk below. No prizes for guessing which option we plumped for.
