Your Top 2 Greatest Expansion Pack (Episodic Games) of All Time.


BLOOD
 Share

Recommended Posts

My Top 2 are:

1.The Ballad of Gay Tony-This was an Expansion Pack but it was beyond Perfect.

 

2.The Lost and Damned-I bet non-GTA fans will think this game wasnt part of the GTA Family if it didnt had GTA on it,It was an Extra-ordinary DLC that defines DLCs along with TBoGT and it brought alot of Innovation to the Franchise and the Genre,and it is seen as many including me as the Greatest Biker Gang Game Ever Made,i am sure the SoA game wouldnt take that crown afterall Ride to Hell didnt.

 

By the way,guys and girls what are your top 2 greatest Expansion Games?

 

Fun Fact:GTA had 2 Expansion Games released in 1999 before TLAD and TBoGT but i never played them lol :)

 

Update-Here are some videos about great DLCs:

GTA SA is technically an expansion too, since it was based on the events of the 1992 riots in LA and wasn't canon to the series. It was literally, and still IMO the greatest thing in gaming ever. Notice I said "IMO" btw.

Undead Nightmare.

 

Don't really buy that much DLC so that's all I can come up with.

Left behind DLC for the TLOU and Undead nightmare for red dead redemption.

Why make a topic just to say you like GTA?

 

There is a whole other section of the forum you can discuss this in.

 

If you would have to ask me what the best DLC was though.

 

For singleplayer, hands down, All Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas DLC. Point Lookout, Broken Steel, Mothership Zeta. And Old World Blues and Lonesome Road in NV were great too.

 

For Multiplayer, yet again hands down goes to Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam DLC.

 

I don't think anything has ever satisfied an inner need I have had for something like that did.

 

I think that DLC and the Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon spinoff were probably the greatest things I have ever experienced as a smaller singular piece of work. They spoke to me so deeply that it feels like they were designed just for me specifically. I doubt there will be anything else like those for a long time. Just a perfect moment in history where a developer spoke to me directly as if it were from god.

Yes! Blood Dragon! Forgot all about it, I haven't finished it yet but the art sytle, comedy and retro music is quite good.

And in addition to what Daz said, I would have to say Battlefield 1943. I'm pretty sure it was stand alone, but it was still just a WW2 mod for the first Bad Company.

@Daz

Yes TLAD and TBoGT are GTA Expansion games but this thread is for list of Expansion/Episodic Games that are the Greatest in each person's opinion :)

 

@DarthShinobi

I would love to play Undead Nightmare,and yeah CoD's Shi no numa was amazing.

Considering that Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is one of my favorite games of the few years, and the only one I ever bothered buying downloadable content for, besides GTA, of course, I'll probably have to go with the Da Vinci Disappearance and the Copernicus Conspiracy.

GTA IV TBOGT expansion pack ( Rate that a 8.5/10 )

TLOU Left Behind ( Rate that a 8/10 )

Undead Nightmare ( Rate That a 8/10 )

Classic zombie maps Black Ops 1 ( Rate that a 9/10. I love me some Shi No Numa and Der Riese )

 

Also it would be better seeing you write out other games you like than just GTA. There are other games you know.

Definitely the New Vegas DLC, I'm comfortable saying theyt completely and utterly blow FO3's DLC away, which are by no rights bad, but I don't think I've played DLC as good as New Vegas' since Morrowind.

 

On that note, Trubunal/Bloodmoon are the best ever though, both of them add a good fifty to a hundred hours of gameplay and exploration. They individually have more depth, play value and story than an entire stack of AAA games released in the past few years, hell I'd say they're easily more in depth and immersive than the entirety of Skyrim.

TESIV: Shivering Isles - loved the new realm of Sheogorath, all the quests were interesting and fun, the story was good, the new weapons and armour were cool, and of course Haskill (one of the best ever characters in the series imo). All the characters in this crazy realm were "interesting" though haha.

 

I'll stick with the series and say that Morrowind's expansions are my second favorites for more or less the same reasons The-King gave.

 

 

Next would probably be GTAIV EFLC, Carmageddon Splat Pack, all the RCT 1,2,and 3 expansions (the more stuff in games like that the better), and then maybe Fallout 3's Point Lookout or something...

Great Choices,but like i said before the thread isnt about GTA,and besides without TLAD and TBoGT DLCs will never be the same,They are the most popular expansion (episodic games) of all time,i dont know whether it because of how the Missions were over 10 hours each or because they are just Superb but almost every gamers have played TLAD and TBoGT,and it great that they made a Stand-alone disc for both installments...If i had a PS3 i would have got TLoU but unfortunately i dont,plus Left Behind isnt Stand-alone like TLAD and TBoGT.

Shivering f*cking isles. I loved that! One of my favorite things was going around town as Grand Inquisitor torturing people! :devil: More games should let us do these type of things.

Episodes from Liberty City, I played a lot of them, especially TBoGT.

TBoGT was Superb,Fun and Colourful than TLAD,but the weird thing is that i only played the former once and even now that i have playthrough V like 4 times (Story-wise) and already knew what happened to JK i still go back and play TLAD,lol :) that game can never be dethroned as the "Greatest Biker Game Ever made"...It introduced Checkpoint System to the Franchise,It the first game or OWG were you can do Drive-by with a (SAWN-OFF SHOTGUN),The Gangs AI are Smart and at times wonky,tbh TLAD wasnt just the Greatest Biker Gang Game but it made the Saints Row Franchise look so Childish and Retarded...Yeah some people said things like "Yeah it not a GTA game cus it about bikes" or "It a SoA rip-off" f*ck them TLAD was announced in 2007 even before SoA started,and i am sure SoA game will be a Straight rip-off of TLAD even the producer of the show at one time wanted Rockstar to make a full-fledge biker game cus he liked TLAD.But i am not trying to bash the show cus it a great show :)

TLAD was a great DLC. The only problem for me was the replay value at the end.

 

Spoiler: At the end when you lose your clubhouse kinda ruin it for me. I felt it would of been better keeping that after you beat the game. We lost so many minigames after that was gone. Sure it made sense story wises but not gameplay wise.

The Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim DLCs. My favourite F:NV DLC is honest hearts, and my favourite Skyrim DLC is dragonborn.

 

Undead nightmare is a close 3rd place.

There is a whole other section of the forum you can discuss this in.

Maybe because he was asking a question about expansion packs of any game? Just because he chose GTA, it doesn't mean the topic is GTA oriented.

 

In terms of my top 2, I like the Fallout DLC a lot, and GTA IV's Episodes (TLAD and TBoGT) - Both I find pretty good :^:

That's all he ever talks about. Look at his posts. All of them have the word GTA in it. We all know he played other games and there is no reason to be a fanboy. Just post what you like.

@Redx165

But then you could do other mini-games like Biker-Hockey Race (I love the ability to use a bat and a shotgun

in a bike,it was fun :)) then there is still another arm-wrestling location near the AoD destroyed clubhouse

(not just in our own Clubhouse) but yeah the Gambling mini-game was gone i guess(?) and then there is Gangwars (Too many) but i never did them.Tbh i think TLAD has a great replay value in the Franchise.

Well, come on, this is a GTA Forum - A lot of members here are going to love GTA to that sort of extent.

The point I was getting at is that, just because he mentioned GTA in this topic, it doesn't mean the whole topic is about his love for GTA, he simply stated what he likes.

GTA has popularised and popularised everything. - Blood-is-in-Diamond

"Great comment bro" - Blood-is-in-Diamond

 

@GTAKid667 Blood is a self-confessed GTA fanboy. He has admitted it multiple times.

I also like the fallout DLCs. I haven't got all of them yet, but Blood Money and Honest hearts are excellent DLCs.

I felt sorry for Frederick Sinclair, all of that money wasted to protect someone who backstabbed him in the end. I felt sorry for Vera as well, to an extent. She had to take med-X due to her terminal illness, and she got blackmailed by Dean! :lol:
