Places to Take Michelle in 'GTA 4'

Dating women is required to get 100 percent story-mode completion.

In "Grand Theft Auto IV," the life of a criminal is filled with stress and never-ending danger. Dating gives you a chance to relax and get to know some of Liberty City's friendlier women. One of the women available to date is Michelle. Unlike most of your potential partners, dating Michelle is mandatory, at least temporarily. Fortunately, Michelle is fairly easily impressed, enjoying casual activities like going out to eat or shooting pool.

Restaurants

Michelle is a casual girl, and that means she enjoys casual dining. She usually gives her approval even if you take her to a cheap restaurant. Local restaurants like Cluckin' Bell or Burger Shot are an inexpensive way to start off your night with Michelle. Michelle also likes diners, like the 60 Diner, located in Westminster, or the 69th Street Diner, in Broker. When you take Michelle out to eat, unfortunately, you do not get to go inside the restaurant to watch the date.

Bowling Alley

Liberty City offers two Memory Lanes bowling alleys, located at Union Drive West in Westminster and on Firefly Island in the Broker district. You are forced to take Michelle to a bowling alley for your first date as part of a story-related mission. Inside the bowling alley, you can play a game or two with Michelle. If the game takes too long, you can skip Michelle's turn. You don't win any money for winning in bowling, but Michelle always tells you that she had a good time.

Pool

Michelle has a competitive nature and loves to play pool. Pool tables are located in the Homebrew Cafe. A pool table is also located in Playboy X's apartment. To win at pool, you need to pocket more striped or solid-colored balls than Michelle does. If you pocket the wrong color ball, you lose a turn. You also lose a turn if you shoot a ball off the table. As with bowling, Michelle's turn can be skipped.

Bar and Darts

If you're in the mood for bit more social interaction, head to the Lucky Winkles bar, located in Algonquin, or Steinway Beer Garden, located in Dukes. Besides drinking, darts is the only activity you can enjoy with Michelle at a bar. To play, throw darts at the sections of the board until your score reduces zero. The player who lowers their score to zero first wins. If you have a few drinks with Michelle after a game of darts, Niko always leaves the bar drunk. Take a taxi back to Michelle's apartment to get her home safely. If you drive drunk, the police instantly start to chase you, and Michelle is not impressed.
