Does taking revenge instead of the deal in GTA IV affect the ending?

When I was playing as usual I got a call and there was a Red Knife and Cash sign on map. So from the calls, I think it's revenge and deal. This is my first time playing this game, so I want to know if the choice affects the end or not?

Best Answer

Yes, your choice will affect the ending. Specifically, it will affect the current mission, as well as the following 2 missions.

Since there are only 3 missions left (one of which is simply a cutscene), you might want to make a separate savegame so you can witness the results of both choices.

Deal

If you take the deal, Roman will be shot (and dies) during his wedding by an assassin sent by Dimitri Rascalov to kill Niko. In the final mission, you will have to chase and ultimately kill Dimitri.

Revenge

If you take revenge, Pegorino will attend Roman's wedding in a car and start shooting, killing Kate in the process. In the final mission, you will have to chase and ultimately kill Pegorino.

The reward money for either choice is ultimately the same. If you take the deal, you will receive $250 000 after the deal, but no reward for the last 2 missions. If you take Revenge, you will only receive your $250 000 reward after the final mission.

Also, while both endings are different, they are still fairly similar to one another.
