Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City

If you enjoyed Grand Theft Auto IV then you should get this one.

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City will let you play through the two downloadable episodes for Grand Theft Auto IV that was made available by Rockstar Games online, The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.

All two episodes take place concurrently with the adventures of Niko Bellic in Grand Theft Auto IV. That means you won’t be playing as GTA IV’s protagonist in these two episodes but as two entirely new characters that you’ll definitely find as endearing.

And since The Lost and Damned was made available for download first, it is best for you to start from there. In The Lost and Damned, you assume the role of Johnny Klebitz, second in command in a biker gang that goes by the name ”the Lost.” The game basically revolves around the return of gang leader Billy Grey who wants to resume their conflict with rivals The Angels of Death.

And since Johnny Klebitz feels otherwise, you’ll spend most of the game trying to balance your allegiance with the Lost and whatever deal you may have made with rival gang Angels of Death.

In The Ballad of Gay Tony, you assume the role of Luis Lopez and just like in The Lost and Damned, missions in this episode will have the checkpoint feature so you won’t have to restart an entire mission in case something ”bad” happens.

While Johnny Klebitz dwells more on the dark side of Liberty City, Luis Lopez’s adventures take place under the bright lights of the town where you get to play mini games that includes dancing and drinking.

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City is a must-have for GTA fans and this will give you a great excuse to visit Liberty City once again.
