Good to See You Again: New 'The Lost & Damned' trailer
by Xav de Matos 
{ Feb 12th 2009 at 2:42PM } 
Based on the appearance of Torres and her dialog, The Lost & Damned will bring players back to the mission Blow Your Cover, from GTA IV. In the mission, Niko follows Playboy X and Johnny Klebitz (the protagonist in Lost & The Damned) to a heroin deal that eventually goes horribly wrong. Other moments from The Lost & Damned are said to weave into the original GTA IV story, where Johnny Klebitz was a supporting character during a pair of key missions.
GTA IV: The Lost & Damned will release on February 17, for 1600
($19.99 US). The full trailer can be found after the break.

I get to drive a motorcycle! Lots of them presumably.
Wait. I hate driving motorcycles because of the view.
I just lost all desire to download this.
The $20 price tag didn't help either though.
OMGOMG @ Feb 12th 2009 2:58PM
I just lost all desire to read you post. Weird.

/sarcasm :P
Yes your right, with this DLC all the new vehicles* are replaced with bikes of all kinds. From Fucatti to Gnarley Davidsons. City with nothing but motorcyles and mopeds.
Screw this game!
Duke @ Feb 12th 2009 3:14PM
Well, I agree that the price tag doesn't help. I really don't think I have any interest in buying this DLC. The single player experience in the game really got to be boring for me and I don't see a need to continue it.
Anthony @ Feb 12th 2009 3:25PM
Of course there are going to be other vehicles, but it wouldn't be the first time you would be required to use a motorcycle for a mission. I would only assume this would be more prevalent in the DLC.
Motorcycle views (across all games) leave a lot to be desired.
Lord Negatron @ Feb 12th 2009 2:55PM
New weapons ie the "street sweeper" looks good. A reason to get back into some multiplayer madness.
IMO, i am glad "choppers" are used (which makes sense) rather than "crotch rockets". Street bikes frustrated me some during chase missions.
Cash @ Feb 12th 2009 3:55PM
Get ready to continue the frustration, as I'd imagine the controls are going to suck just as bad as they did on the crotch rockets.
"Good to see you!"
No, it really isn't.
CannabisPrime @ Feb 12th 2009 4:58PM
What's the "street sweeper"? I looked at Rockstar's page but did not see that listed. The list of weapons I saw are: Grenade Launcher, Assault Shotgun, Pool Cue, Pipe Bomb, Sawed-off Shotgun, and Automatic 9mm
Lord Negatron @ Feb 12th 2009 5:09PM
@ CannibisPrime
"Street sweeper" is just street slang for the auto-shotgun(with the drum magazine) that Johnny is firing at the helicopter in the trailer.
CannabisPrime @ Feb 12th 2009 5:29PM
@Negatron
And here I thought I was "hip" and "with it". Apparently not so much.
snarfoogle @ Feb 12th 2009 7:02PM
@Cash: Actually, R* rebalanced the motorcycles to make them handle better.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Feb 12th 2009 9:01PM
Pipe Bomb here
(Green-Aids Lawn-Chair,Sweet I'm totally buying this.)
rTwelve @ Feb 12th 2009 2:55PM
I imagine Playboy X won't actually show up in the new missions....
Because that would be... weird.
ELUNO @ Feb 12th 2009 2:57PM
What did you do to him!?!?!!!
Xav de Matos @ Feb 12th 2009 3:02PM
Well, he'd still be around. If this took place AFTER the story in GTAIV, Elizabeta wouldn't be around either.
baby sea tuna @ Feb 12th 2009 3:03PM
Whoa SPOILER ALERT!
ELUNO @ Feb 12th 2009 3:04PM
What did you do to her!?!?!!!
rTwelve @ Feb 12th 2009 3:05PM
Let's just say I have a nice condo...and a neat outfit....
Xav de Matos @ Feb 12th 2009 3:06PM
No, a spoiler would be if I told you what happens. That sentence doesn't do that. Also, how old is this game?
Jerk Face @ Feb 12th 2009 3:19PM
Snape kills Dumbledore.
rTwelve @ Feb 12th 2009 3:22PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YOU BITCH
YOU BITCH!!!!!!!
Lord Negatron @ Feb 12th 2009 3:23PM
Xav de Matos
After all hub bub' towards the end of the game (*non spoiler). Its possible for Elizabeta to be "back", if some strings are pulled.
Haggard @ Feb 12th 2009 6:07PM
You're trying to avoid spoilers so much that I don't what you mean, and I've completed it.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Feb 12th 2009 9:02PM
And Rosebud was the sled.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Feb 12th 2009 9:03PM
I remind you that Playboy X could be in future missions,remember that [Spoiler] is optional.
rTwelve @ Feb 12th 2009 9:40PM
except for the part where [Spoiler] happened
Paul @ Feb 12th 2009 2:58PM
Not to mention if you hit anything and fall off of your motorcycle you lose 3/4 of your health. Not fun at all.
Eric @ Feb 12th 2009 3:06PM
It's better then Dying. I work for Harley Davidson. Trust me Most of the time when you wreak on a bike like that. you end up dying.
Duke @ Feb 12th 2009 3:16PM
Whooooooa there! Management just called and said ex-nay on the dying talk.
Markusdragon @ Feb 12th 2009 5:08PM
I learned about the danger of bike crashes from Happy Days.
Oh Richie, you weren't cool enough to be the Fonz, why did you buy that bike...
baby sea tuna @ Feb 12th 2009 2:57PM
Oh shit! This is coming out *Tuesday*?! I guess I'm gonna spend the weekend boosting cars and finishing up the police missions to refresh my brain on those controls.
J @ Feb 12th 2009 2:58PM
I'll be there, day one.
Deck @ Feb 12th 2009 3:00PM
Niko! YES!
Man, I can't wait. This really is looking good!
Lieutenant @ Feb 12th 2009 3:06PM
Ugh, Gametrailers' video player is garbage. I'd appreciate it if someone could upload this to viddler/youtubehd/etc.
Dave @ Feb 12th 2009 3:16PM
I'm sooo glad I have another save file WITH Playboy X.
FemaleOrca @ Feb 12th 2009 5:35PM
What did you do to him!?!?!!!
halo 3 sucks. @ Feb 12th 2009 6:39PM
And... that's when the joke gets old.
forestofdeath @ Feb 12th 2009 9:03PM
in fact, isn't that an EXACT copy and paste of the joke above?
FemaleOrca @ Feb 13th 2009 3:49PM
that was the idea...
I'll let myself out.
The Espiritu (Sony said: PlayStaiton 3) @ Feb 12th 2009 3:18PM
I'm gonna have to buy a used copy of GTA4 just so I can play this.
Jerk Face @ Feb 12th 2009 3:21PM
Me too, but I think I'm okay with it. It's cheap now, and it WAS a really great game. People like to hate GTA IV, but they're mostly the ones who like Saints Row 2 more because it has 'MOAR STREAKING LOL". They, of course, are wrong.
The Espiritu (Sony said: PlayStaiton 3) @ Feb 12th 2009 4:24PM
Saints Row 2 is a shitty game.
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Feb 12th 2009 3:34PM
UGH WHY MUST MY 360 DIE NOW?????
sigh hopefully Microsoft will send it back to me soon.
William Sagemire @ Feb 12th 2009 3:35PM
So the bit with Niko talking is just taken from the original game?
I remember R* saying there was no way they were bring back the original voice actor.
xenocidic @ Feb 12th 2009 3:46PM
...because of how he bad mouthed them in the press after they made bucketloads of money and he only got a paltry hundred grand...
pigeonreaper @ Feb 12th 2009 3:59PM
*loudly prays this somehow ends up on PS3 sooner or later*
DFDubMZ3 @ Feb 12th 2009 4:25PM
Dare to dream
The Espiritu (Sony said: PlayStaiton 3) @ Feb 12th 2009 4:28PM
Unfortunately, Sony doesn't pay for exclusives. ='(
Maybe in the next GTA, maybe.
Rahul (Rurouni Kenshin Forever!) @ Feb 12th 2009 4:29PM
Hope it comes on PC, at least there is a chance for that considering its a Games for Windows LIVE game. It looks like some have already found some DLC files in the PC version.

"Unfortunately, Sony doesn't pay for exclusives."
Wow, that's...idiotic. Unless you confused the phrase "Sony doesn't" for the phrase "Sony can't afford to".
