Fresh GTA 4 News

I guess I told you already that I failed in running GTA 4 on my computer, so what I am going to tell you today it doesn't really make me happy. As long as I won't get a console, I won't try to touch GTA 4 again! Damn, how I hate PC gaming from time to time... but let's look at the bright side - new GTA 4 content has just become available, and it's also an exclusive deal for Microsoft!

The short version of the story is this - you have to get $20, then spend it on the "Lost and Damned" content pack for Grand Theft Auto IV, and the good part of the deal is that your silver subscription will bring you six free days of gold-level access to Xbox Live, once you have done that. Pretty cool, huh?

According to the official announcement, "For the first time ever, starting Tuesday, February 17 at 9:00 am (PST), Xbox LIVE multiplayer service usually reserved for Xbox LIVE Gold members will be completely free of charge for LIVE members while playing Grand Theft Auto IV or The Lost and Damned—the first exclusive downloadable expansion episode on Xbox 360."

Sure, that's great GTA 4 news, but what about the PC version? Well, I guess PC gamers can wait, since "This limited, Grand Theft Auto multiplayer promotion is applicable only to players of either Grand Theft Auto IV or The Lost and Damned expansion episode, and will end on Sunday, February 22 (11:59PM PST). Be a part of this unprecedented event and join the legions of Grand Theft Auto fans across the world to wreak havoc upon Liberty City."

Well, that's life, you win some, you lose some, but stand by for our Burnout Paradise PC review - that will surely avenge those who weren't able to play GTA 4 on their PCs, I can tell you that!
