GTA IV: Downloadable Content (Idea)


Recommended Posts

I could come up with a plot, but I'm exhausted so I may do that another time. In brief my idea for another episode (downloadable content) would be set in Liberty City in the 60's or early 70's. In my opinion it would be an exciting and different experience in comparison to what is currently available for purchase. Imagine exploring Liberty City with a different atmosphere and visual style set in an immaculate rendition of 60's/70's New York. On a personal level I love the psychedelic, soul and rock music of the 60's and 70's as well as the culture. I could see myself playing as a criminal or Mafia associate strolling along the streets amongst the crowd of hippies and such, who are playing their guitars and smoking the herb.

I like your thinking Candy

 

Not sure what the Royalties would be on the music bearing the 60's and 70's were some of the most, if not the most important decades for music - there would be big pressure from gaming community to get the classic's

 

good thread

Thanks, and you're right about the music, it was definitely the most influential decade in my opinion.

 

Even though it's not early seventies I would love to drive up onto Mafia or gang turf unloading my ammo on my enemies whilst listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd - That Smell,

I would want to play as a young john gravelli in the 60s...but for the next GTA, I hope it will be set in present.

 

right now, there are enough games which cover that period of time. you got mafia 2 and games like agent and l.a. noire coming.

I didn't think Mafia 2 had that spark and besides, Rockstar could do it better. L.A Noir will be different, but similar. Well I thought it would have worked well as downloadable content, but I wouldn't want the sequel based outside of the present.

Mafia 2 had a lot of hype, but was disappointing really. Rockstar would do so much better with that kind of thing, so I think this would be a good idea.

true. There was f*ck all to do aside from missions too. The best feature were the playboy mags imo.

 

I also found the some of the missions VERY low quality, and frustrating. The end of the game, for me, was simply not fun, but repetitive and tedious. The story ended leaving me feeling disappointed too - it was hyped up due to it's story, but i personally found the story quite poor tbh.

 

In my eyes it was a quick, cheap "lets cash in on GTA's absence" ploy by Take Two...

Or maybe you're simply overhyped. Mafia 2 never interested me, even with all the supposed hype.

 

I prefer to have someone eventually make a mod like this but that's wishful thinking.

You should flesh this out with a proper story with characters and stuff and then add sum weapons and music and post it in the General GTA Chat Section.
