From IGN:

Make that male full frontal nudity. That's right, Rockstar brings you Xbox 360's first downloadable dong.

GameDaily Review - 9

Totally Sweet: Motorcycles that are easier to drive, high-powered weapons, more rock 'n' roll songs and – thank god – save checkpoints during missions.

Totally Beat: Still has the same awkward cover and fire system, mission structure is still largely the same and character archetypes feel a little too familiar – Niko and Johnny are interchangeable protagonists to a degree.

IGN UK Review - 8.6

Even in light of the claims made for The Lost and Damned, the sheer size of this expansion is staggering. GTA IV’s detractors may bemoan that what’s on offer is more of the same – while those enamoured with that game will be overjoyed at how much more of the same there is. Rockstar may, however, be a victim of its own ambition, as players hold up the content of The Lost and Damned to direct comparison with its forebear. Nevertheless, it’s a tale worth playing through and a welcome opportunity to once more step foot in the still magisterial Liberty City - and as an expansion it sets a new precedent for what’s possible with downloadable content at a price that makes it unmissable.

Also, from IGN Review:

It doesn't help that, in an effort to separate GTA IV and The Lost and Damned visually, Rockstar added a grain filter. This filter occurs throughout and sullies what was a beautiful city. The grain is fine for cutscenes, but it makes Liberty City look drab when driving around town. And at night, in the rain, the grain makes things even darker. It can be tough to see what's going on.

So, why not turn it off Hilary?

Kikizo Review - 9

I can't say I like The Lost as much as I adore the Bellics, and in single player I would like to have seen some of the AI a little sharper on occasion, but really there's not much to complain about with The Lost and Damned, and we've not even touched on other additions like new music, new DJs and new TV content. Even the pesky grain effect that covers the screen in the preview version we played last month is something that can now be turned off. It's without a doubt one of the best downloadable game expansions ever made, and a truly worthy addition to one of (if not the) defining title of this generation to date.

Any news on who's been added to the soundtrack? I hope they added more hip hop and R&B songs.

I can't believe they put a Termanology song on there.

Question: To all that plan on getting the DLC, if/when you beat it, do you find yourself going back to the Niko version of the game or just continuing with TLAD portion?
