    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.
  2. Vandal

    GTA returns to its utmost craziness through a great and charming story.
  3. 3DJuegos
    90
    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.

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

    Pretty good addition to GTA IV. Nice characters like Tony. I liked that main characted had to help his family - it showed that he had good heart

    The Ballad of Gay Tony perfectly completes the story of Liberty City's life. Yes, the plot addition is inferior to The Lost and Damned. First,The Ballad of Gay Tony perfectly completes the story of Liberty City's life. Yes, the plot addition is inferior to The Lost and Damned. First, it is not unique. This is also GTA 4, secondly, the duration and saturation of the story is inferior to the first DLC. There are a couple of bright crossover missions here. In general, by filling the ideas of gameplay, The Ballad of Gay Tony is a transitional stage to GTA 5. In general, the story is not outstanding by the standards of Rockstar Games, but only most other games are made an order of magnitude worse. It is a pity that Rockstar abandoned the plot DLC for the sake of big money from GTA Online.… Expand

El mejor juego de Grand Theft Auto en las consolas de la generación actual.… Expand
