GTA: Episodes From Liberty City Ships

Rockstar Games announces the availability of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City for Games for Windows LIVE and PlayStation 3. This bundle of the two expansions for the open world action sequel Grand Theft Auto IV is available on disc at retail (which does not require the original game) and individual episodes The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony are available through digital distribution (which does require ownership of the game). Here's word: "The Lost and Damned is a dark trip through Liberty City's seedy underbelly as outlaw biker, Johnny Klebitz, fights to keep his gang together as a rift in the gang's leadership threatens to tear the brotherhood apart. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, players step behind the velvet rope of Liberty City's high-end nightlife as Luis Lopez, who is struggling to balance the temptations of money and vice against loyalties to family and friends. Both episodes take place in Liberty City, the much loved, immersive world of Grand Theft Auto IV and offer a slew of new vehicles, weapons, and activities." Update: The digitally distributed version on Steam likewise does not require ownership of the original GTA4. Thanks Zyrxil.
