theundertakergonzo | June 19, 2008 | Pictures | Playstation 3 XBOX 360

Gamesradar has captured a bunch of images from Grand Theft Auto IV and compared them to screens from famous movies. From movies like the Warriors to Spiderman take your pick of your favourite screen.

Grand Theft Auto IV's Liberty City is roughly based on New York. Lots of movies are filmed in New York. Here we try and recreate some of Hollywood's New York-based movie scenes using locations from GTA IV. Check out our handy work...

The Film: 1979 flick The Warriors depicts a Brooklyn street gang who find themselves in the Bronx being hunted by every other gang in New York. After fighting their way thorough the Bronx and Manhattan the Warriors return to Coney Island.

Real-life location: Coney Island, Brooklyn.

Robert De Niro was asked to play the role of Cowboy, but he turned it down and the role was given to an unknown actor, Tom McKitterick who left the world of film for the stage soon after filming was complete.
