GTA IV DLC Details Emerge

GTA IV DLC Details Emerge
Written Thursday, November 20, 2008 by Dan Webb

The GTA IV DLC has been AWOL for sometime now and the confusion between Rockstar and Microsoft employees doesn't really make you feel that confident about it. Nevertheless, details emerged today detailing the episodic content, from USA Today of all places.

They report that the DLC will be released on February 17th and will carry the title "Lost and Damned". The story is said to revolve around Johnny Klebitz, a member of the Liberty City bike gang, The Lost. Whilst we don't know much regarding the story, Dan Houser, VP of Creative Development promises us "that the story will show you a different side of Liberty City".

At least we have a date now anyway. No word on price or the like yet. Either way, I personally can't wait for the DLC to drop.

[Thanks scourge]

A different side of Liberty City? I hope it's the side that has some colors in it. After how awesome Stilwater was in SR2, GTAIV's take on Liberty City is awfully boring.

Meh indeed. New cars, weapons, ridiculous vehicles and modes was what was needed, not another bland story in the same bland city.

Do you think we'll be looking at a Shivering Isles sort of price tag? (i.e. costs more than the game itself, second hand) I've just sold my copy of GTA4, it was good but I felt like I'd had my fill of it. If the DLC's just a mission pack, I'm not sure I'll bother.

single player is good. Multiplayer is one of the worst online setups ever!

Glad this was delayed - Feb is usually a barren times for new games. Completely agree with #11 re multiplayer, hopefully all new achs will be campaign based. Please Rockstar no more bloody collectables!!!!!!!!!!

Im ok with this being delayed till feb- gives them time to make it better and well....there are way too many freaking games out at the moment.

i agree it should of been earlier because as this room suggests people have sold it and moved on i also agree that i wont be buying that let down and waste of money for some dlc that a will have to pay for 2 lol

I really thought Saints Row 2 was more fun than GTAIV.

It a shame I got rid of this game now due to boredom. I may have to get the game again to check this out. Either way sounds cool.

Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 08:49:34 AM

A year ago, I would have been hitting the ceiling reading that... since GTA has now jumped the shark, I'm far less bothered.

Luckily Saints Row 2 filled the massive gap which GTA4 left.

I mean, 200 pigeons?? Really!! From the pioneers of the sandbox genre, that's all you can come up with..?

Comment #25 by MorrissonNL
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 08:51:42 AM

Yeah and I heard that the first 1000 people that pre-order the game get 1.000.000 MS points for free

I'll get the DLC. GTA IV is the best game.

Comment #36 by Hells Zargon
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 10:21:32 AM

To be honest right now I don't really care. What I'm really interested in is Left 4 Dead. Which reminds me, when are Valve planning to get the expansion to Team Fortress out on the 360?

Comment #37 by Avenger
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 10:24:47 AM

Shame it took them 10 months to get the DLC ready. Not many people will still be bothered about it, having sold it and moved on to one of the many other blockbuster titles that have launched since.

Hmmmm How can you preorder Down Loadable Content??
check your sources mate i think there taking the piss outta you...twat.

GTAIV sucked balls dull boring and drab i got all the points i could be arsed to get then traded it the same week, i aint buying it again just for 1 new mission pack that should of been out months ago!! shoulda spent this time making a good game instead!!

Wow more GTA news.... I'm so excited, better get my game out and start practicing.... What? Why yes that's sarcasm in my tone about GTA 4.

How long ago did GTA IV release and now they are finally getting the downloadable content out there.

Comment #42 by ThaNurpleR
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 11:55:38 AM

Well at least I'm not the only one who traded it in months ago. Is it just me, or is the game completely repetitive? It just seemed like every mission was pretty much the same. Boring as hell if you ask me.

Good thing I kept the game.

Comment #44 by cortex21
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 12:34:17 PM

They should of release this content before the summer holidays and it will be bullshit if it's going to be the same cost of GTA: SA (1200 or 1600 points) for one chapter should be 400-800 no more.

Comment #51 by Masta Mylez
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 01:46:41 PM

Why is everyone complaining about the 200 pigeons when San Andreas had 250 hidden packages. I love GTA and the Saints Row fanboys know GTA is a superior product. Like #48 said, too many trolls.

i also just traded this game in to get left 4 dead. the MP is crap on GTAIV but i kinda wish i held onto it except for the fact that i'd rather play L4D anyday.

besides i've already played a sandbox game with zombies in it. its called dead rising.

Comment #56 by ChrmoSchwinn
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 02:47:15 PM

i wonder if rockstar knows how many people have traded in gta 4 already, i doubt these said people will rebuy the game just to play the dlc. this should have been released no later than december 1st. just like this silly girl i know, it's too late..

Comment #57 by hoochie mama 88
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 02:49:04 PM

I hate how people bash this game when they played it for 1 week something and traded it in. the game took me over a month or two to beat. I feel sorry for them because they didn't have the patience to play through such a wonderful game.

Comment #58 by INFERNOII
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 02:51:56 PM

GTA IV might of been "realistic" but to me that took away the whole fun factor of the game. Saints Row 2 suceeded where GTA suffered, in the most important part of a game, GAMEPLAY

Comment #59 by xtremegamer113
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 03:37:09 PM

wow i literally just traded it in

"I love GTA and the Saints Row fanboys know GTA is a superior product."

Pre GTAIV I would've agreed with you. For me, I'm having a lot more fun with SR2 than I ever did with GTAIV. I'll pass on the DLC unless there is a Saint's Row mode which makes the game entertaining.

Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 04:35:00 PM

Haven't played the game in months, don't know if the DLC is worth dishing out money for, since its coming out this late.

AWOL is a military term which stands for:
Absent WithOut Leave

Comment #68 by Atarii
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 06:01:57 PM

I thought it was away without leave, but it's all the same.

Anyway, I can't wait for the DLC, it's about time we got some details.

Comment #69 by twotonkoala
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 06:18:32 PM

Too bad I've already gotten rid of the game. Waiting almost a year for DLC isn't good enough with a game that had gotten old after a couple months.

Comment #70 by OMGmyFACE
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 06:58:40 PM

If by different side, they mean more of NJ as opposed to NY, I'm not too thrilled. But DLC for GTA4 FINALLY!

Comment #71 by n8ryder
Thursday, November 20, 2008 @ 07:34:58 PM

Yep I traded it in too. It took way to long to release any DLC. Not going to bother buying or renting again.

as long as it has achievements....

Comment #73 by iamtehwin

Rockstar should have noticed that everyone was playing this for a week and then after that I couldnt even find anyone that had played it in about 20 games (on their list) I mean, cmon who cares about a sub par games dlc a year after everyone stopped even thinking about it :P

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
