8/10
Party vibes incarnate
29 January 2022
A tier, 8/10. Definitely a breath of fresh air from the bleak realism of the rest of the GTA 4 saga, much more light hearted than either of the other two stories.

It definitely feels like they looked at the complaints about GTA 4 and catered towards them. The lighting is much brighter, the missions are much more fun and whislt being a bit too crazy are still really refreshing and enjoyable. With the exception of an awful helecopter mission and having to loose wanted level after nearly every mission. It's better than in the other parts but having to losing your wanted level ends up being more of a fustration. It doesnt detract from the missions to much but is still incredibly fustrating.

The story and characters are much more over the top and it doesn't feel as high stakes as the other stories. The game definitely has that GTA 5 energy with the same kind of tone and humor. It is very refreshing and different but I definitely prefer Niko's story as the best.

The atmosphere at the clubs always feels so bright, compared to the bleakness of the city l. Seeing characters from the other storys appear was just as great as in the lost and the damned. Roman is just so good.

The mission checkpoints are kept here which is still great. The new weapons are even more over powered than in lost and the damned. The special combat shotgun thing is literally and instant kill. The p90 is such a great assault rifle. Probably my favorite selection of weapons out of any GTA game.

The new dance mechanic in the club is fun and teh music is still as great as the rest of GTA 4. The vice city radio definitely fits this DLC really well.

A great and very different experience to the other parts of GTA 4. The actual missions are much better in general even if the story is a bit weaker than the main game. Definitely spent allot of the game thinking about a tv show with Robert Downey Jr as Gay Tony. Out if all the GTA games GTA 4 would easily make the best tv show.

In short a very different and refreshing story, definitely worth playingif you are a fan of GTA 5.
