GTA IV The Ballad Of Gay Tony
Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony (Also abbreviated TBoGT) is
the second of the two episodic expansion packs available for the Xbox
360, PlayStation 3 and PC versions of Grand Theft Auto IV, developed by
Rockstar North in the United Kingdom and released for the Xbox 360 on 29
October 2009.[2] It was then released for the PlayStation 3 and
Microsoft Windows on 13 April 2010. It is the fourth expansion pack in
the Grand Theft Auto series, the 14th release on the series and is
currently the second to final game of the Grand Theft Auto IV era
(Chinatown Wars being last). The Ballad of Gay Tony follows the exploits
of protagonist Luis Fernando Lopez, a member of the Dominican drug
dealers and the personal bodyguard of Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince. Prince
is the owner of the two largest nightclubs in Liberty City and is a
high-status socialite.
Rockstar Games said in their press release that this episode "injects Liberty City with an overdose of guns, glitz, and crime" and that "players will struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price. A combined standalone disc-based package titled Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City, which does not require the original Grand Theft Auto IV game to be played, was released alongside the second expansion and contains both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.
Gameplay
The Ballad of Gay Tony includes the ability to replay previously passed missions with scoring. This feature was previously introduced to the series in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. Additions to the game's inventory include new weapons such as the FN P90, the M249 SAW light machine gun, the Atchisson Assault Shotgun, the .44 Auto Mag pistol, and the sniper rifle DSR-1. It also includes the return of satchel charges. Additional vehicles include high-end sports cars, sedans, a new aircraft, a small attack helicopter called the "Buzzard", a heavy-lift helicopter called the "Skylift", and a shuttle helicopter named the "Swift". In addition, the parachute returns, allowing players to participate in BASE jumping and skydiving challenges. When flying a helicopter the map now functions as an altimeter.
The game also introduces a new driving range activity, as well as the ability to visit Tony's two nightclubs; where they can participate in drinking and dancing-based minigames. They can also manage the club's security. Players may also enter an underground fighting tournament; where they can either spectate or compete in fights. In multiplayer, free mode, deathmatch, team deathmatch, race and GTA Race modes were updated, and a "BASE jumping" (multiplayer competition) mode was introduced, as a variation of free mode.[7]
