The Lost and Damned - GTAIV DLC (X360) @ GH

The Lost and Damned Review
_________________________

The much awaited expansion pack for Grand Theft Auto 4 "The Lost and Damned" has been out for a few days now on the Xbox store and we can safely say that the 12 hour campaign has set a new benchmark for other downloadable content to achieve. Xbox owners rejoice!

The Lost and Damned is based on the same setting as the original title but the action has been moved to Alderney State -- the left side landmass that mirrors a section of New Jersey. Rockstar have created not just a mere mission pack but a strong standalone title within the theme of their massively successful franchise.

Re: The Lost and Damned - GTAIV DLC (X360) @ GH

Having a blast with the expansion. To be honest, the graphical noise filter threw me off at first, so I did the same thing, and turned it off. Thing was that after a while I turned it back on as the game seemed to be too clean looking for the games style for the expansion. Having the noise filter on made the game feel more.. well.. grungy (don't know how else to explain it), and the new songs tied it all together.

BTW, as for the PC version, I remember seeing mention of a mod that changed and/or opened up content for the PC version, so the code is in there for it.

Edit: Found the mod HERE at Fileplanet.

WTF? IF it is that easy ? why did't rockstar release it officially?
have you tried it? I can't as I don't have fileplanet account .
Will do some googling

Edit1: After searching Most people on other forums say it unlocks weapons , skins ,songs not the missions.

Quote:
note that this is not the mission but the L&D assets
Edit2:

Quote:
Features:
Makes Niko as Johnny (Biker Jacket replaces the Sand Jacket in the Russian Shop, Johnny's
Jeans are replaced with the Jeans from the Russian Shop, and also Johnny's Leather Jacket
will be replaced by the Biker Jacket that you got from Gerry McReary's mission)
Johnny's Leather Jacket (Replaces the Biker Jacket)
2 Sets of Fingerless Gloves are also included with this mod (2 sets are normal leather gloves and a very stylish Biker glove)
DLC Bikes (Names as follows: Angel, Deamon, Diablous, Hexer, Lycan, Nightblade, Revenant,
Wolfsbane)
100% Complete Save Game
DLC Weapon Icons (Pistol, Uzi, Grenade, AK47)
New Weapon Textures
New Loading Screen (They are crap but it'll do for now, because my photoshop isn't as good)
I'll clean the topic up when I'm finished, just gotta do the Weapon textres and it's done. Screens are coming soon
Credits:
pinky (data folder and Spawn locations Info)
aru (SparkIV)
blazer30uk (Finding/unlocking the DLC Bikes)
Simkas (Johnny Klebitz)
NOTE: That some of the DLC files were actually left over and were accidentally left in IV PC, I suppose that it would be possible to get them, so I put my head to it and got it, but... the leather jacket, 1 of the fingerless gloves and weapon textures were made by me. Yes, I did get permission from the people that are all up above

I just don't get why R* are playing hard to get with us PC'ers.

The DLC worked out reasonably well for Fallout 3. So why the platform discrimination by R*?
