The Ballad of Big Gay Tony: GTA4

    The second vid of this addon on is up on a few sites.




    Looks good and over the top like the older GTAs. I spotted 3 new weapons in the vid, Uzi and P90 smgs and an assault shotgun. Two new choppers to boot.

    The scene with the chopper lifting the railcar reminds me of Swordfish with the chopper lifting the bus at the end. Also reminds me of the mission in San Andreas where you use a similar chopper to rob a bank van.

    This looks like GTA getting back to its roots.

    Definately seems like they are putting some of the "fun" back into GTA, which was slightly lacking in GTA4. Did I see a shot of the character climbing up the side of building, because I remember reading in previews before GTA4 was released there was mention of the fact that Niko could scale buildings and telephone poles?

    I'm probably the only one who thinks this, but I'd be way more exicted if they put all this effort into making GTA V. It really just seems like they are trying to rehash the game over and over.

    This is effort that could have pulled in GTA V release date by a couple of quarters. I'll be way more excited about that than some DLC for a game I've already played for ages.

    oh, looks pretty good alright. I thought TLAD was great so will look forward to this. Probably wait til next year to pick it up though as the quality of games being released is picking up now.

    Colour me excited. The main GTA story bored me to tears but TLAD was a big step in the right direction and great fun. Which reminds me that I have to get back to it.

    Looks like they'll put in a Dance Music station. Really looks great, out in Rocktober though not a good time for any game other than Brütal Legend.

    Yeah looks good alright.
    Are there any more plans for more dlc's for GTA iv or is this the last?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    This looks really good. I liked GTA IV anyway so I doubt I'll have much trouble enjoying this.

    If I recall correctly, Microsoft paid Rockstar a lot for exclusive rights to the first two DLC packs for GTA IV, so they wouldn't appear on PS3.


    So, I reckon there's at least one more pack gonna come out that'll add a small bit more to the game, but will bring the PS3 owners up to speed with the stuff they're missing from not being able to get the last DLC packs.



    I wish they'd hurry up with GTA V though (or whatever sub-title the next game gets). GTA IV is essentially the only game I play, and the city is getting kinda boring now.
