Finally the Playstation 3 owners get to play through Rockstar's wonderful expansions for Grand Theft Auto IV. Elfving delivers the verdict on the The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Microsoft paid $50 million for the first 2 episodic contents to be exclusive to the Xbox 360. After paying that kind of money everyone thought that it would be an exclusive deal forever. A year later it turns out that it was a timed deal and being released on PS3 and PC after all.

Two years have passed since Grand Theft Auto IV was released and a year later, the last two chapters of the GTA IV saga (Lost & Damned and Gay Tony) arrived as Xbox 360 exclusives. Now, Playstation 3 users who have been loyal to the Sony brand can play these two great pieces of content. .

Rockstar hasn't let gamers down with their promise of supporting Grand Theft Auto IV with downloadable content. Last generation, although it eventually made its way onto other systems, Grand Theft Auto meant PlayStation.

Short. Like the Episodes themselves, I will strive to keep this brief, as I have already done a review for GTA IV, and these are simply extraneous downloadable packs for that title. As a result of this, I will focus mostly on comparing and contrasting the two titles.

Some of the other negative points we noticed were the side missions and activities. As previously mentioned, arm wrestling in The Lost and the Damned is pretty lame. In the same way, managing the club in The Ballad of Gay Tony is only fun the first time you do it.

on my at the time newly acquired PS2 console, I immediately fell in love with Rockstar (North), the "bad-boy"-developer of the video games industry. While I'll be honest here and admit that it was the revelation of the stunningly unique open-world gameplay at the time, and not so much their wicked...

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City finally makes its way over to the PS3, and it contains all of the downloadable episodic content that the Xbox 360 received earlier this year, which means that you're getting both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony .

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City is a robust and highly enjoyable package that is held back by the limitations of the original game and whether or not you can remember what happened in GTA IV.

The Lost and the Damned drags you down to Liberty City's seedy underbelly and then The Ballad of Gay Tony recolors the world with flash and style. It's a great compilation, and the additions to both the narrative and the mechanics do well to compliment the aging Grand Theft Auto IV.
