    The amusing dialogue, fun gameplay, and delightfully absurd missions make this a must-buy for everyone, whether by download (in which case it requires a copy of GTA IV to run) or on disc with The Lost and Damned.

    The Ballad of Gay Tony again takes the cheeky and impossible spirit of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, and brings it back to life with the fantastic technology from GTA IV. An amazing opportunity to revisit the always amazing Liberty City.

    GTA returns to its utmost craziness through a great and charming story.

    Funnier and more diversified […], Gay Tony extends the fun for 10 hours at least.

    The Ballad of Gay Tony is the second of the episodic content for GTA 4 and follows the story of Luis, Tony Prince's 2IC. The main story sees Luis get into a whole lot of trouble and really is just the same structure of GTA4 and provides some great thrill in the missions. But the ridiculous dialogue is starting to get a bit stupid. I understand that this is GTA but this is just plain ridiculous, every single cutscene has some profanity in it and it is just plain ridiculous. This content isn't that bulky but the main new feature is the nightlife. Gay Tony is a club owner and Luis is the Operations Manager of those clubs. He can venture into 3 clubs and be a bouncer in 2 of them. The bouncer jobs are really just venturing between looking, throwing, sex and conversation so it gets a bit boring. You can also dance and drink at the clubs and you still get those looks when you fall down the stairs drunk as hell which is nice. There a couple of new weapons and vehicles and they add alot to the mix. But the best feature in this content was the base jumping, finally when i jump out of my helicopter (at a new higher altitude) I can land safely or just fall from a higher distance. Minor graphics improvements are included and a couple of new songs and thats about it. Gameplay-10-GTA gameplay is still the same old awesomeness Sound-8-Some of those club songs get really annoying Graphics-9-Minor improvements make it look slightly better Value-6-$30 for some new weapons and a couple of new features is ridiculous Story-8-Great moments and funny albeit stupid dialogue Overall-41/50-A great addition to the game but a bit lackluster in content… Full Review »
