Gamesradar: Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City Review

While great on their own, bringing The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony together makes for an impressive package that rivals GTA IV itself while completing the story it began. The missions, gameplay tweaks and parallel stories make this a must-buy for fans who haven't already downloaded either add-on.

If you haven't downloaded either add-on yet, then you might want to consider picking up Episodes from Liberty City, which collects them both on one disc that you don't need Grand Theft Auto IV to play. It doesn't offer any new features over the downloadable editions, unless you count a static game-select screen as a "feature," but if you lack the time or the bandwidth to wait for the lengthy downloads, or just don't have GTA IV, this is the best way to get your hands on them.

Gamesradar= FAIL.
IT's bot central over there.

Uncharted 2 10/10

I guess that means all of them are good, but you wouldn't know that, because you fail to use the search bar on Games Radar.

[mikepmcc]

@seaking

shame, you're really missing out.

[Saaking]

wow, that's a BIG surprise/ sarcasm.

Didn't they already review The Lost and Damned? Why are they re-reviewing what is basically the same thing?

[kissmeimgreek]

they're reviewing the set and seeing if theyre both worth forty dollars together.

[WenisWagon]

10/10, that's higher than uncharted 2. True AAA found only on Xbox 360!

[Greywulf]

1 AAA at the end of the year, then dlc of a 1 year old game. I loved GTA... but at this rate, you will pretend to love DLC for the rest of the years to come if its not old by now right? keep buying 20 dollar add ons every year no?

[The 1]

More crying. Are you going to find another article claiming 360 fans are being bent over by Microsoft because of AAA game expansions?

LOL Trying to spin GT4's AAA expansions that add value to the software people spend their hard earned cash on.

We know the routine NASIM/ANTAN/TheBandit/Saaking/ Greywulf/Pirate Thom/ Bash something you don't have until you get it.

[ReviewsArePolitics]

We missed you, long time no see

/s

Anyway, lol to the 10 out of 10. This game is far from perfect and far from comparing to the best games ever made, Zelda and Uncharted. This is a 9 at most. Also, lol @ paying full price for DLC, but that's what you guys like

[takecontrol]

Looks like he's got you in a panic or should I call you thebandit or is Canadianguy420?

[WildArmed]

Seems like the GTA review crap all over again.
GTA IV was extremely overrated (getting a metarating of 98)
I wouldnt be surprised if this went above GTA IV's score.

Then again, I havnt played the DLC so I shouldn't be quick to judge.
Will pick up Liberty City Stories and see for myself

I dont know but I'm skeptical of games that the media praises to be good as Z:OoT, bioshock, goldeneye etc etc.

[Antan]

You called "The 1"? For anyone unfamiliar, "The 1" is our old friend Power of Green, Why Dis, Really Duh, I Did Not Murder Him, Cooliris, PSSlim and his "other" new accounts are Morganfel and Gamearts.

He likes to force his opinions down peoples throats but doesn`t like it when other opinions differ from his, but you know what, after nearly 4 years you get used to his wisecracks and his "great" knowledge of the industry and the technicalities of it.

This below is how he shot himself in the foot using onne of his many accounts.............

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...

But the mods are aware of the situation.

And of course if any people would like to check my history, please enlighten me and show me where i a game, but as you know or will come to know, its a little trait of his to start pointing fingers at other users......instead of himself.

2 AAA in one month! And two Flops in one month AKA AFRIKA and eyepet.

PS:Afrika and Eyepet Flop!

2 AAA in one month! And two Flops in one month AKA AFRIKA and eyepet.

PS:Afrika and Eyepet Flop!

Well afrika was a big flop, about that there isnt doubt, butttttttttttt, but if u didnt now fckbot eyet is selling wat more than forza in uk, who knows where else, it is also selling more than uncharted 2 in its first days it came out. so guess one of these flop...is beating the crp out of flopza jajajaja.

[I am Legend]

that's some good news.

[WildArmed]

shouldnt be surprised.
From what I've heard Lost N Damned was a great DLC episode.
And by the media reviews, so is Gay Tony Jr.

Atleast the DLC isnt bad as Fallout 3 lol
Now that was some bad DLC.

[Saaking]

haha, you bots are a joke.

EDIT: @below: yet it has the best games? haha, man I can't believe how bad you own yourself.

[XboxUltimateAlliance]

The Sony PS3 is a joke.

[XboxUltimateAlliance]

I laugh at PS3 all the time, have been for 3 years straight. It's just a funny little blu ray player.

[stb]

i laugh all the way to that signle dvd ubber crppy player that die everytime you put a fcking game on it. lol

[drdre74]

I bought the PS3 version of GTA so I'll be getting this just to get the two episodes. But may have to wait still call of duty is coming soon and I'm playing the best game ever Uncharted 2

[Elven6]

This release is 360 exclusive.

[WildArmed]

I dont think you got the point that he got GTA IV for ps3.. even though he OWNS a 360. So he can play the DLC by getting this disc.

[Serjikal_Strike]

cuz one of ur many expansion pack games this year got a 10/10...

chew on this 8=====D

none of those will even come close to game of year

[KingKionic]

whoa...

[I am Legend]

"Hands him a tissue"

I know man....I know

[KingKionic]

HA HA!

+ bubble

[cronaldo7]

Looking forward to play this on AAABOX 360.
10/10 Masterpiece

[Elvfam511]

Use a Tank that suppose be there when the GTA IV came out

[The Tour Man]

I sure hope you bots buy this amazing bundle so that you can help fund The Agent for the PS3; a game that isn't over a year old

[Namikaze_Minato]

Cry moar, Droids! :D

GTA IV - The COMPLETE Experience ONLY ON XBOX 360!

Jump In!

[cronaldo7]

It only does everything.

[LtSkittles]

Thanks for the $50 mil

@Below, so that means EFLC will be on the PS3.

Edit

@cronaldo7
'Why would someone play the framerate issues version?'

Why would I play a game on any system, and not notice the framerate issues? Oh, yeah, because I play games to have oh, what's that word? I think it starts with an F, and ends with n? Oh, fun, I play games to have fun, and I don't notice the graphical issues a game has.

[Serjikal_Strike]

Its exclusive to the 360 for NOW....

coming to ps3 in 2010!

FACT

[cronaldo7]

@Hi-def freak
GTA4 PS3 framerate issues
No thanks.

@Lt_Skittles
Why would someone play the framerate issues version?

[stb]

Come to ps3 as well, xsuckers, you dlc AAA reign will be soooo fcking done jajajajajaja, hope these dlc on my ps3 as well, though i would reather pick it later on xbox, but who knows if this crppy machine would rrod while im playing this dlc jajajaja, i would record that to sht d fck off of those xtards bashing this game as if this were the best, losers.

[Jikla]

people still play gta 4? Well tbh it seems like you get something good for 40$ instead of some new characters and stages like super street fighter 4. I didn't like gta 4 but this seems like this years Christmas present to my gta 4 loving friends.

[cronaldo7]

10/10 Masterpiece

[mikepmcc]

Just picked up GTA IV for $7 at my closing Blockbuster, ironic that the dlc might cost me 6 times as much as the full game. Still, looks tempting, but really only a rental for me.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Lots of Blockbusters closing it's the age of digital

[maxcer]

only $7?, i need to jump on that because my gta4 disc has stopped working. i'll probably pick up EfLC too considering its a separate disc and don't need gta4 to play it

[LtSkittles]

Uncharted 2 10/10

I guess GamezRadar are teh biased!!1!

[Bumpmapping]

They felt bad for the lack luster games on 360 this year hence the 10.

[mikepmcc]

you're an idiot, the playstation editor wrote the review! you sound a little jealous...

[LtSkittles]

Don't tell him that, or he won't be able to sleep at night knowing that People have a different opinion than him.

[NecrumSlavery]

People...My Sony Brothers. You musn't forget that the 360 isn't held to the same standard as the PS3. Trust me, when the Liberty City Episodes hit PS3, they wont top 9/10..Because two year old engine aren't the standard anymore.

[N4G king]

i would like to see all of you when agent is out
:)

[shutupandplay]

Let me guess..."just wait".

[N4G king]

at least i'll wait to play a full game

last time the bots waited to get something to play
all they got is DLCs

[XDF]

Now PS3 Fans go cry...oh Xbox 360 owners also have L4D2, the Superior Modern Warfare 2 version, and the current reigning Race Champ in Forza 3 to enjoy this Holiday and Mass Effect 2 in Jan and Splinter Cell Conviction in Feb.

PS3 owners can play their 13th version of Ratchet and Cr@p made for 7 year old nothing else left for the Holiday Until March of 2010.

LMFAO at the Sony droids.

[STICKzophrenic]

...anyone who only owns an Xbox or only owns a PS3.

Cheers to dual console owners who can choose to play every awesome game that releases.

I played through Uncharted 2, and loved it. It's an awesome game that deserves all the praise it gets.

...and right now, I have TBoGT downloading and will be enjoying it shortly.

It sure must suck to be an Xbot or a Sony Droid.

[STICKzophrenic]

DAAAAMN, this game has some SICK weapons. Every new weapon I've picked up is a power weapon. Detonating sticky charges is so much freakin' fun.

Thank you MS and R*...this is a blast.

I hope this eventually comes to PS3 so that everyone has a chance to play this.
