User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars GTA4 Light
The Lost and Damned (TLD) follows the story around a somewhat large motorcycle gang known as The Lost. Ever since BIlly Grey – the president – went to jail, his VP JOhnny Klebitz (you) has been rebuiling everything that he screwed up and even gaining some business partners so that The Lost can still exist. The club is doing quite well but when Billy gets out of jail, he immediately goes back to his old ways and continues to do crime that destroys everything Johnny worked hard for. Eventually a “civil war” breaks out within the club which eventually leads to many losses and downfalls.

The story was IMO, pretty good. The new weapons, while there not being that many, were also amazing (namely the auto-pistol and auto-shotgun) but its sad to know that you will never bring any of them into the original game. The motorcycle physics have been redone to the point where you will never want to use a car, ever which makes it more believable because in GTA4, motorcycles were a deathtrap whereas in this game, theyre as good as, if not better, than cars. So you may be wondering at this point: “If its such a good game, why only 4 stars?” Simple, to me it seemed to be somewhat short and the missions was just the same thing as GTA4: drive to point a, kill people, runaway from cops, go the point b, end. In the end, this game was still worth it.

5 Stars all i can say is wow
If you like the main story your gonna love this. its much better written and some event tie into some things you have already done. it seem to be much better scripted as well. the chopper mechanics have been overhauled making this very playable.

5 Stars More GTA is always welcome
I loved GTA IV, but this game takes all of the “living city” elements and deep character development to the next level. It was fun seeing Liberty City from a completely different character’s perspective and the frequent cameos of characters from Niko’s story were fun to see too. The gameplay remains solid and the new missions are varied and challenging. A must buy for any GTA IV fan.

4 Stars This is a Download, Not a Disk
It probably says somewhere in the description that this is a download code, not a disk, but somehow I missed it. If, for instance, you are in Afghanistan where the internet is as reliable as the train service, a 1.8 gigabyte download is measured in calendar days.

An easier alternative is to just purchase this directly from the xbox marketplace when you log on with your xbox.

5 Stars great action
this is a great game for adults who like action and it has a story line
