The Lost and Damned for GTA IV PC?


Recommended Posts

A new update released for GTA IV PC adds achievements for The Lost and Damned! At present, The Lost and Damned is only available on Xbox 360, after Microsoft reportedly paid R* $50m for two exclusive episodes. However, the terms of the deal were unclear, and nobody knew if it was a timed exclusive or a permanent exclusive.

So does this mean The Lost and Damned is making its way to PC? Probably.

Play a new playthrough? I did GTA4 twice, never bored me. Different ways to complete the game. The second time was completely different to what I did the first time.

I have beaten the game 3 times. I have beat it 3 times because you can't take your save games with you if you re-format your computer.

you CAN take the save games :p

first save your old save game folder => C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\savegames

folder names are something like this - user_e000047d5b0e0034

copy its contents

now, after new install (format), run the game, play little initial part of game, Alt-Tab & head over to the savegame location & you'll find new folder with different name (like user_e00000955b0e0034), just open it & paste the contents.

now Alt-Tab into the game & load your save file.

done :D

Gee, just like I predicted a few months back during the "Oh, it's coming for teh PS3!!1" - Why some people can draw a comparison between this and PS3 is beyond me. Who bought the exclusivity right? Microsoft. Who owns the primary gaming OS it's now being released on? Who owns GFWL? Gee, logic 101 being put to great use there.

As for the news, lovely! Completed GTA IV 3 times, 1 on the 360 and two times on the PC, such an epic game but it was getting a bit stale, I'd love to get a new story tacked on. I did want to buy the episode on the consoles but superior graphics, 60FPS and Keyboard + Mouse certainly beats that low-res laggy console crap.

It's about time. I can't say I'm excited though. GTA IV has been my most disappointing PC game purchase. :/

Myself on the same boat. It is ridiculous to say that I have been playing more San Andreas than IV now a days.

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
