PS3 Crew: GTA4: Episodes from Liberty City (16/04/10)

Robert1986 · 9 Apr 2010 at 19:43

I'm so excited to play some more GTA4. GTA4 was the only GTA game I actually completed, and I did it in 3 days.

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City is the brand-new Grand Theft Auto, containing two complete games - The Ballad Of Gay Tony and The Lost And Damned - together in one box!

The Ballad Of Gay Tony
The Ballad Of Gay Tony injects Liberty City with an overdose of guns, glitz, and grime. As Luis Lopez, part-time hoodlum and full-time assistant to legendary nightclub impresario Tony Prince (aka "Gay Tony"), players will struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price.

The Lost And Damned
In The Lost And Damned, experience Liberty City as Johnny, a veteran member of The Lost, a notorious biker gang. Johnny has been creating business opportunities for The Lost in Liberty City but his first loyalty must be to the patch he wears on his back and to Billy Grey, the club's President. However, when Billy returns from rehab hell-bent on bloodshed and debauchery, Johnny finds himself in the middle of a vicious turf war with rival gangs for control of a city torn apart by violence and corruption. Can the brotherhood survive?

Are these both full games? As in huge ones like other GTAs?

supposedly around 15 hours each. Don't know for sure though.

no, they're about 15-20 hours each including side missions. They're must plays if you like GTA though.

Took me more like 8 to finish each one on the 360, TLAD was the shorter of the 2 from memory.

got it on pre-order for ps3, can't wait as loved gta4

Nymins · 9 Apr 2010 at 20:19

Definitely not 15 hours long. Finished them in about 6hrs without much side missions. Still great addons.

cheets64 · 9 Apr 2010 at 23:02

Both are great, really enjoyed them stories and missions, BOGT is probably the best of the 2.

Almost finished GTA IV (first playthrough!) so I'll be sure to pick these up after.

Fantastic game, so, so much to do, and the missions are varied and fun!

But anyways, hope they've sorted out the framerate in these as it was what ruined GTA 4 for me

I played GTAIV on PS3 and really enjoyed it - then I played Lost & the Damned on 360 and couldn't believe how bad the pop-up was... it was terrible and made the game unplayable for me. So glad it's coming out on PS3 so I can complete it

Fuzzyheid · 10 Apr 2010 at 10:15

Was looking forward to this

pushed back from 30th March release date for some reason tho

apeZ · 10 Apr 2010 at 17:24

Just completed GTA IV. Fantastic game, really enjoyed it the whole way through, and loved the ending!

Watching credits roll and realising that this is the first time in a long while that I've really enjoyed playing a game the whole way through

Time to work towards 100%, and then deal with the DLC...but first... revision!
