Fielding a question on today's quarterly investors call regarding the performance of Grand Theft Auto 4's DLC double-header and the accompanying retail bundle – The Lost and Damned, The Ballad of Gay Tony, and Episodes from Liberty City, respectively – Take-Two CEO Ben Feder admits, "Both we and Microsoft believed there was a big market for GTA 4 episodic content and some factors affected their performance." Calling the two companies' relationship "a historic, strategic partnership" – remember this? – and calling the episodes themselves "profitable contributors to the company," Feder nevertheless offered some insight into what his company could have done to make them even more profitable.
The Steam versions of Grand Theft Auto IV and Episodes From Liberty City are combining, and players who own one or the other are in for some changes.
I woupdn't update the game. It doesnt have game breaking issues and I would lose one of the radio stations.
"Thankfully, players will seemingly easily be able to update their game to the new version easily by simply installing "
What the fuck kind of sentence structure is that?!
GTA4 was the worst game in the entire series and the only one I've ever truly hated
They'll never get rid of how slow and sluggish these games feel. Your character and vehicles feel too heavy. Even on the most powerful rigs. I love how GTAV fixed it though.
Nick writes: "If you fancy some GTA nostalgia, and/or want to dive back into the GTA IV package in its entirety, I would say that if nothing else strikes your fancy, The Ballad of Gay Tony should."
One of the very rare cases where DLC was done right. This is what DLC should have been, a proper expansion pack, not what it has become today.
KeenGamer: ''The GTA series has been around for over twenty years, spanning four console generations & fifteen games. These crime epics have provided uncountable hours of memories over the years, but some instalments stand out from the rest. Here are my top 5 GTA games to date.''
"A recent update also added a fully functioning casino that requires players to use real money, in order to buy fake money, then gamble it!" This is not true, again this is a bullshit narrative being pushed, which is furthest from the truth.
Grand Theft Auto 3 is the game that made it into a console selling game so that's why its my number #1
He said "The Ballad of GUY Tony". Tony might be a guy, but he is gay.
these excellent DLCs aren't selling well.
You would have thought that a game with a 98 on metacritic, it would stand the test of time and be called a "true classic". Unfortunately, GTA4 disappointed alot of people, me included. After the phenom that is San Andreas, GTA4 feels like a step in the wrong direction, and a huge letdown for fans of the series. That's why I think that alot of people have move-on, and could not be bothered to buy the DLCs. I myself along with my friends would not buy the DLC even if it came to the PS3, we are more interested in the new games that are coming.
Another, is that GTA4's DLC exclusivity also hurt it in terms of sales. According to a press release by Rockstar themselves, it sold relatively 50-50 on both consoles. By excluding the other side, GTA4 is effectively being sold to half its customers.
When the GTA4 DLC was announced, it was "the end of Sony". Maybe it's the end of MS/R* deals...
the dlc at a friend house it good but just like gta4 it gets old fast not to say it not good but the hype wore off a long time ago for the dlc
