GTA VI: The Ballad of Gay Tony Official Review

Nice review Gary, I know what you mean about Yusuf he's bloody hilarious!!

Nice review, will have to pick this up when I have a few pennies to spare as I really enjoyed GTA4 and TLatD, good to hear it's more of the same!

Good work Gary as always mate

A great review mate, I'm looking forward to picking up the disc with this and Lost & the Damned but I only recently finished the original so I'm having a bit of a break before I delve into Liberty City again

Having started eGay Tony I can say that it spanks the botty of TLAD

The graphics are much better (its not all orange or grey roads) and the missions seem to have more depth

The achs though look a real pig and I am not sure I want to be having to replay each mission until I perfect it. But its like a mini GTA4 and so all the plus points the actual full game are there (along with the bad ones) but if you hated TLAD (ie if you played it lol) then you should not skip over this as its far superior

Finish the BGOT story last night and its not a bad tale

Sadly by the end I felt that GTA4 was really past it as a game. The missions are all realistically the same with a collection of 3 or 4 ideas being rehashed time after time.

BGOT is bright and so much better that TLAD but quite honestly I wish I had left both addons well alone. Rockstar seem reluctant to fix simple things that would enhance the enjoyment factor such as a far better camera view set for when you are driving and a sensible fly/fire setup for being in a chopper.
Not being able to see directly in front of you when you are driving as the view levels are all too low (apart from the badly implements front wing camera) and having to point your whole helicopter forward to fire downwards are two issues that really detract from the 4 series. Such as shame as fixing those 2 points would raise the level of fun by a large factor.

I cannot see myself trawling through all of the missions again to get 100% perfect on them for the ach as thats just pointless torture. Why you cant keep your % if you replayed a mission in the real game is madness and not knowing what was expected of you to get 100% until the mission was over is also pathetic.

For a multi million dorra franchise the seem to have gameplay testers that have no clue as to what real gamers like.

I hope that the leap we have seen in other games happens to GTA5 if it ever surfaces, but for the first time since the original GTA which I loved, I will not be parting with any more cash without a thorough playing of a demo.

great review dude. as im new 2 xbox i dont have this game yet, but its my next buy. thx

matey I would check out Saints Row 2 first

Its on sale for a fiver at Sainsburies and is by far the better game.

Fair play mambo, you are the first person to notice my error. Kudos.
