Im basically confused, im thinking about downloading the lost and damned but is it worth 1600 and is it the same time length as the actual main GTA story?
Also do you have to complete the main story to play it?

No you don't have to of completed any of the game to play it.

There's allegedly 10 hours of gameplay in the DLC which is some of the best out there but it is a hefty price. New online modes and weapons too.

The original GTA IV game had 30-40 hours of gameplay at least in it.

Original GTA IV was more like 20-30 hours, still a long and hefty game though.

IGN said there's around 12 hours story, and another 6 hours if you wanna 100% it, so that's HALF of the full game for around 1/3 of the price. Bargain.

The story line took me 23 hours, and I haven't got 100% so if I was to get 100% that would take ages, I'll probably get it today hopefully, it's out I take it? I think when we purchase it we get clothes for our avatar too.

GTA: L&D will cost 1600 MS and will have about 1/3 of GTA's original play time, so thats like, 7 hours of extra play?
Fez
17-02-2009, 05:02 PM
More time than that, 12 hours +

Does the DLC still have those horrible chase scenes? Are the bike controls different? I went on freemode earlier and noticed the bikes controlled a lot differently. Either that or I had forgotten how they handled.

The pysics and all that on the bikes have been improved, I guess they have the same slidey feel as a car.

I downloaded it last night and started playing it this morning.

Took me about 2 hours and a half to complete it...

The missions were really easy. The only problem I had was when your on the back of Malcs bike running away from the cops.

Also, the graphics on L&D are worse than GTA IV. The graphics are sort of grainy.

Only upside I seen was new vehicles and weapons as the new multiplayer modes are rubbish.

But thats my opinion

It can't have taken you that amount of time, don't lie.

Also, the 'grain' effect is the film grain , it can be turned off from the start menu.

Technically yeah, just waiting for the real copy of GTA IV. Got my points card though.

Cant wait for the review. If your gonna do one for the DLC
Fez
19-02-2009, 04:38 PM
Yeah of course. As long as eBay delivers it within the next week or year then expect one before the end of the month.

I just completed it, thoroughlly (SP?) loved it. Was just what GTA needed imo, interesting to see what the next one will be like.

thoroughlly (SP?)

Close, just one 'L'

Oh and for some reason, I think it'll slightly make up for GTA IV's lack of manliness.

But it has male nudity.

I'll probably get it this weekend. Strangely enough the thing that excites me most is the multiplayer mode "lone wolf". Looks like a lot of fun.

Chopper vs Chopper is good, but infuriating.
The police chopper flys around wayy to much and means its hard to follow the bike.
Also, if you hide in an alley that means you can hide.

Instead of using the guns people just use the rota blades aswell.

At the end of the day its fun though.

It takes you 3-4 hours to complete the missions maybe, what about the Seagulls, missions for Stubbs, Angus' bikes and the online modes aswell.

Gang wars - Drive a bike and kill people/

I think they have gone over the top with the biking theme, I just find it boring.

Ony good thing, is the new vehicles. weapons, and the fact niko is in it.

Missions tho are nearly all the same.

What else do you expect from a biker gang, gangster rap?

It's just like they went over the top with everything in any other GTA, it's how the games are.

It's amazing, riding bikes is epic now. Story line is short, but multiplayer is good, especially chopper vs chopper :D
