One of the things I found so appealing about The Lost and Damned was how different Johnny Klebitz's world felt from that of Niko Bellic, despite the fact that both stories took place in roughly the same place at the same time. We'll get another, presumably unique look at a life of crime in Liberty City with The Ballad of Gay Tony, which Rockstar has given a release date of October 29th. You'll also be able to pick up Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City, a standalone disc-based compilation of both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, on that same day for $39.99. All of this content, at least for now, remains exclusive to the Xbox 360. There's still no actual screenshots of The Ballad of Gay Tony available, so in the meantime enjoy this wallpaper of what I'm going to go ahead and assume is nothing more than a friendly lady.

I'm not really excited for this, probably because I didn't find GTA IV all that exciting.
Hope it's good for all those who are looking forward to it though!
" I'm tempted to say we might be playing as a transsexual. That face does not look like a woman. "I think Gay tony is a tranny, but it was confirmed we will be playing as a character named Pedro (I think that's his name) anyways the guy with the AK47 who breaks up the diamond heist .
Since GTA's protagonists are usually tough and combat experienced it wouldn't make since to be in the shoes of a mere civilian.
Judging by the picture, and the fact that rockstar's track record for pushing boundaries is high, Gay Tony is either a transvestite or a gay harmaphrodite. lol. Either way it sound's like just a bit of fun. If your open minded enough that is...
As long as I don't have to see some gay couple going at it, I'm definitely getting this.
I can't look at that picture without thinking of Bob Seger singing "is it a woman or a man?". Nonetheless, the glitz of this wallpaper puts the impression in my mind that this will be a pretty different type of story.
There is a page for Gay Tony on GB. I think I remember Anthony Prince from one of the television shows.
Things like this make me proud to be British. "Lost and the Damned" had a penis in it and the US Conservative Right lost it's fucking mind, as a response to this "Blood and a Four Leaf Clover" is scrapped and "The Ballad of Gay Tony" is announced. I love you Rockstar, I really do.
Hopefully it lives up to L&tD's quality, I really did enjoy it.
Will be looking to ye guys to tell us if it's worth it or not (much like L&tD) before spending mah space bucks..
It would make sense to be her though. I could see Luis working for the Ancellotti family trying to track her down after the kidnapping. (edit: oh yeah, you return her to Tony himself in GTA4).
At least I'm pretty certain that's not Gay Tony. If I'm not mistaken, he was in TLAD for a part of a cutscene -- or was that main GTA4? However it being one of his hoes is plausible. (hoe is still a unisex term if referring to a prostitute, right?) I mean he's some kinda nightclub baron, which could easily translate into madame. (okay, I know that one is reserved for women, but 'pimp' is more of a street title... not classy enough.) (edit: nevermind, there's more info on Tony's page -- I think the girl is Gracie).
EDIT: And on exclusivity, I'm still betting the MS paid episodes will be made available on PC via GFWL -- because it's still fucking Microsoft. Also GTA4 PC recently got a patch that did virtually nothing. The same thing happened with the 360 version just before the first DLC came out (patched the game backend to support episode selection).
" I think the episodes will stay exlusive on the 360 mostly becaus MS payd an ass load of money for it and i dont think rockstar wants to sqrew over the guys that make the system where their game sold the best. "And then you realize, what GOW loving testosterone overdose 360 owner will want to buy a game called Ballad of Gay Tony?
