The '''Fist''' is the standard [[Weapons|weapon]] available on all of the [[Grand Theft Auto]] games.  
The '''Fist''' is a 'weapon' available in all of the [[Grand Theft Auto]] games.  


The fist icon is the unarmed state for the [[protagonist]], and it allows the player to fistfight. Punches and kicks are its moves, and is actually quite powerful when fighting one-on-one with someone.
The fist represents the unarmed state for the [[protagonist]]; he will not draw attention in weapons-free zones, and merely locking onto pedestrians or police will not result in any physical action which might cause a panic or attract a [[Wanted level]]. In some GTA games, fists can be augmented with [[Brass Knuckles]] to increase damage.


Unlike any other weapon, the fist is always available for use. Its main disadvantage is that it lacks power and range. Free-aiming with fists also has no effect on [[Pedestrians|pedestrians]] or [[Police|police]], unlike a firearm which would cause panic and [[Wanted Level|wanted-level]] stars.
Naturally, fists are a last-resort weapon in the GTA games, lacking the range of firearms and power of melee weapons. Bare-handed attacks have unique properties -- for example, they can be chained, causing the protagonist to unleash a series of various punches and kicks, including a stomp or ground-level kick if an enemy is lying prone. In [[GTA San Andreas]], the player is able to learn more powerful moves by fighting and defeating [[gyms|gym]] trainers. [[GTA Vice City Stories]] introduced new abilities while fistfighting, including breaking opponents' necks.  In the [[GTA IV]] era, timing elements have been introduced into physical combat, to allow dodging and 'finishing' moves.  
 
In [[GTA San Andreas]], the player is able to learn new moves by winning the [[gyms|gym]] trainers in a fight. The new moves are all powerful and put down an enemy faster than the normal moves. In [[GTA Vice City Stories]], the player has increased abilities when fistfighting and can perform new moves including grabbing pedestrians by the neck and killing them.
