There was a time when I wanted to make a blog about video games, and this is that blog. I’m not really posting anymore, so there’s no point in this, but I can’t quite bring myself to closing this blog.
For some reason, the long-awaited information is coming out through USA Today — and there isn’t much to go by. (Oh, wait, I know why: because Rockstar can get an article in USA Today, so why the hell would they not?)
First, a date: February 17th. Which is close enough that you could expect development is advanced enough the DLC won’t be more than a month late.
Second, a price: not. Of course they’re not going to tell you yet.
Third, the contents: basically, we don’t know anything beyond the confirmation of a long-standing rumor (actually, I’m not so sure — was it a rumor or officially confirmed?), and the first screenshots; the DLC will abandon Niko and focus on a member of the biker gang “The Lost” (which was encountered in the GTA IV story), and… well, and that’s pretty much all we know. But there are pictures and, at least, he’s not a bearded cliché of a biker. More like a leather-wearing Niko doppleganger kind of cliché.
Oh, and there will be new multiplayers, which, duh. Here’s hoping you can finally choose not to end up with aim-assist enabled in ranked matches.
