Finished GTA IV and the add-on game The Lost and the Damned? Itching for more? Then this Autumn your dreams will be answered. Due out this Autumn, The Ballad of Gay Tony will be available for download on Xbox 360 (1,600 MS points). It will also come on a Xbox 360 disc – complete with original download-only content Lost and Damned – as a standalone product. This means you won't need to the original GTA IV game to play it. Good news, although the price is likely to be 30-odd quid (though that is only a guess, it could be less).
So what can 360 owners expect from Tony and his friends?
According to the release:
"Grand Theft Auto IV's second downloadable episode, The Ballad of Gay Tony injects Liberty City with an overdose of guns, glitz, and grime. As Luis Lopez, part-time hoodlum and full-time assistant to legendary nightclub impresario Tony Prince (aka "Gay Tony"), players will struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price."
As usual, the premise sounds great. And as The Lost and the Damned showed the writing and story are likely to be powerful. But will the action have enough variety to excite those who have already spent hours and hours in GTA IV? Roll on Autumn…

Posted by: vincentco on Tue Jun 02 04:39PM | Report abuse@3 and 4 Sony can't afford it because they spent all that money just to get less back, they reported their first loss this year which is almost half their money, hopefully Sony have something up their sleeve to get them back in the game, or they are going to lose all developers to Microsoft. Like Spike said, Microsoft paid a lot for these but they most likely got more profit from TLAD on its self!
