IGN took a microscope to yesterday's announcement and came up with some with some ideas on what to expect from Rockstar's latest GTA IV DLC episode. We already know about Tony's fall from financial grace in the main GTA IV campaign, so IGN surmises that this latest episode will focus on Tony's attempt to reclaim his lost riches through the exploits of his assistant, Luis.
When The Lost and The Damned released, it included updates to Liberty City's LCHC and Liberty Rock stations, and IGN expects the same to happen for K109, Electrochoc and The Vibe, which hold Liberty's club-dwelling populace's interest.
There's a good chance that The Ballad of Gay Tony will mostly take place in Algonquin, IGN writes. Considering that Lopez's Dominican friends operate out of Northern Algonquin, and Gay Tony's empire spanned most of the south eastern part of the island, it's a safe bet to assume Luis will be handling business in the area when the DLC releases this fall.

Cant wait for this. Looks great.
I'm kinda hoping for new and better weapons, maybe ones that go along with the theme.

C'mon, you guys know Rockstar made the title purposely with 'Gay Tony' in there. Whether or not he is a character in the game, they did this to promote interest and turn heads. I'm sure the content will be great as it was in the original game and Lost and the Damned but c'mon Rockstar, in this day and age you can't be serious.
Think of it this way, if the original GTA IV was called 'GTA: The Ballad of Gay Tony' instead, would you think the same way? It's just irresponsible IMO.

I think the title was chosen because it is funny.

how about ign just wait for it to come out instead of predicting what is going to happen? they are not game designers and it should probably stay that way. :p

Gay Tony was the guy you give the kidnapped girl to. They also had some news stories about him in The Liberty Tree, and apparently he was in The Lost and Damned but I haven't played that yet

Actually it was YOU that was easily offended, that's what started this whole troubled thread.
