Still never finished GTAIV, should I do so before doing these episodes, or are they non-related.

@below, k thanks, I'll try to finish it asap!

[zeeshan810]

you must play GTA IV before you play Episodes from Liberty City or you won't understand the story.

[MmaFanQc]

it wont ever happen on the pc and ps3 they told me......

did they lied?

[cheese]

That simply isn't true. The episodes intersect with the main game in some minor ways, but each is entirely its own story.

[Red_Orange_Juice]

As far as I know, the mission involving diamonds connects all parts together.
Can't wait to play it on PS3.

[Blaze929]

You clearly didn't play Episodes from Liberty City as you don't need to play GTAIV at all to understand anything. They are all completely unrelated besides the Trinity mission.

The guy above is lying you dont have to at all the story will make perfect sense, but I would recommend finishing GTA IV anyway because its a great game.

[lh_swe]

No it isn't!

The story and missions are good but the side missions are utter s***! like amongst the most booring I have played.

The DLC is much better! basically what GTA IV should have been initially.

Glad it came to PS3 and PC. Will get this for my PS3, need to finish GTA4 first though.

What a funny name you have, NOT. Grow up.

at first I hated GTA 4 but with time I started to like it, and now its my favorite game of 2008 next to MGS4. So i will def buy the episodes!

[Charmers]

Looks like Rockstar really went to town in improving the graphics for the PC version ....... oh wait they look exactly the same as the xbox 360 version. Nice one Rockstar really could you guys get any lazier on the PC.

I guess once again it will fall to the PC community to make this game actually LOOK like a decent PC game.

[Letros]

PC does have a lot higher resolution textures, something that isn't always a given for ports.

[Charmers]

Well they obviously didn't use them in those screen shots then I would say those screen shots look 99% the same as the xbox 360 version. I would hardly call that an upgrade, but then it is something to be expected from Rockstar these days.

[Letros]

Yea, they really could have done better on GTA IV PC overall, don't get me wrong I prefer it to my 360 copy, but Rockstar could really do wonders with the PC's resources, ah well that's the world we live in now, there's always APB =)

[champ21]

leave it to the modders guys, the game will look nice once the mods are done.

[gk07]

maybe rockstar u can find it in your heart to release a sli patch or somethin with your lazy asses lol it would be nice

[Babaganoosh27]

FINALLY

[XRider]

Ahh... the good ole days

[Dellis]

This will sell better then GTAIV did on PC and PS3

I was replaying GTA4 on pc yestrday, i did finish it on the 360. I still think it's one of the best looking open world game. The game feels so dense on pc compared to the 360. The crowd, the number of cars on the road, the draw distance, it looks pretty amazing. The game is great it's a 8.5-9.0 in my book. I bought the lost & damned dlc on 360, didn't finish it, i will however get this on pc and finish it. Hopefully Ballad of Gay Tony resolves a lot of the issues i had with GTA4.

[FragMnTagM]

The Ballad of Gay Tony is extremely well done and I cannot wait to get it on PC. The only downside I see is that it is a sloppy port, so I will have to wait on modders to get it looking decent or use a program to force anti-aliasing among other things.
