A Great Addition To The World of GTA 4, And Also A Bargain With A Latino esque-Scar Face Story and Also a Biker Gang

User Rating: 8.5 | Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City X360
Well here we are, at first the DLC for GTA 4 was only downloadable but both are now available on a single disk for quite a good price, you also get value for money with it. At one time or another, both DLC's The Ballad of Gay Tony and The Lost & The Damned cost 1200 microsoft points on Xbox Live Marketplace so to get both it would be 2400 points now true enough it would be just cheaper to download them off marketplace but the problem is space on your hard drive as they both take up wads of memory.

Its ideal to download for those who do not mind giving up the memory for it, or those with an Elite hard drive which is bigger than average kind.
Now to the DLC itself, you have two completely different storylines; from a tale of retribution and vengeance following a Biker gang named The Lost to a Latino gangster and club bouncer who is forced to try and survive the actions and reprecusions of Niko Belic's own journey.

With this both DLC's focus on incidents that Belic created or was a part of, but show them from the viewpoint of two totally new characters.
With this comes new perks; like drug wars and biker side missions that earn you cash and rewards.
Basically the DLC is like two smaller adventures of two new characters in the world of Liberty City.
Its worth forking out the cash for both stories on a single disk, unless you don't mind downloading them.

The Good:

- Episodes From Liberty City features two individual stories; one featuring a Biker gang battling rival Biker Clubs and criminal organisations for Liberty City's turf. The Balad of Gay Tony is more of a free, fun, enjoyable open adventure with more comedic value however with a touch of Scarface similarities, as a Latino gangster involved in the protection rackets and private security for the nightclub scene is a change of pace.
- New weapons to enjoy including a sawn-off shotgun you can wield whilst on your bike.
- Lots of replay value to enjoy, from side missions and diversions in both separate stories.

The Bad:

- Too short for both stories, averaging to about 2 - 3 hours of gameplay in the main story. So you only really get 6 hours or more of gameplay to enjoy, for the release price of £29.99 its a lot to pay for just 6 to 8 hours of gameplay.

Either way you get value for money and you will not be disappointed, other than of course the obvious fault; how short the DLC is but that is a given.
