GTA 4 Police Officer Cheat on Xbox 360: Doesn't Exist—Mods or Other Games Offer That Fantasy

There is no cheat to play as a police officer in GTA IV on Xbox 360 (or any platform). You are locked to Niko Bellic (and Johnny/Luis in DLC). The game does not support character switching or faction joining.

Why It's Not in the Game

• Narrative focus: GTA IV is Niko's story—an immigrant criminal. Playing cop would contradict the writing.
• Technical scope: Cop AI, dispatch, arrest mechanics, pursuit logic exist only for NPCs. Player cop would need entirely new systems.
• No precedent: No GTA mainline game lets you play as police (except GTA 2 "Cop" cheat—cosmetic only).

Closest In-Game Experiences

• Vigilante missions: Steal a police car → press L3 (LS click) → chase criminals. You act as cop but remain Niko.
• "Friendly Fire" cheat: BAGUVIX (phone) – Pedestrians don't attack you. Some follow. Not a cop role.
• Call Dwayne / Playboy X: They send backup cars—you lead a squad briefly.

Games Where You *Are* the Police

• L.A. Noire (PS3/360/Switch/PC) – Detective Phelps, interrogations, cases. Rockstar-published.
• Police Simulator: Patrol Officers (PC/PS5/Xbox Series) – Procedural patrol, traffic stops, accidents.
• True Crime: NYC / LA (PS2/Xbox/PC) – Undercover cop, morality meter.
• Sleeping Dogs (PC/PS3/360/PS4/Xbox One) – Undercover cop in Hong Kong. Best GTA-like with badge.
• GTA V (PC mods) – LSPDFR (Los Santos Police Dept First Response) – Full cop mod: patrol, arrest, pursue, callouts. Requires PC.

On Xbox 360, L.A. Noire and Sleeping Dogs are your best police fixes. GTA IV will never let you wear the badge.
