Since the upcoming premiere of the DLC for GTA IV i would like to pose a question Razz Will any DLC work on a not particularly original copy of a game? (Yes, I know that may be a stupid noobish question, but I don't want to waste 1600 MS Points to realize it doesn't work Razz)

if the reviews turn out good, the story holds up to gta4 standards and there is enough content (at least 10 hours of story gameplay), i'm gonna get it for sure...but not right now, after gta4 and sr2 i've gotten kinda sick of sandbox games.

it should be, unless MS has some server problems (for instance, Tomb Raider Underworld DLC has been postponed to god knows because of server issues)....

If this will also be available on the PC version like the Fallout3 DLC I'll probably have to play it through on the PC again to get to the DLC :/

Cause I sure as hell won't buy it since GTA4 (even though I played through it) felt more like GTA3 than San Andreas, and I did not like GTA3 at all.

So you didn't really like the original game but you want to play through the DLC? Fortunately you can't warez it so you won't have to put yourself through that ordeal. Rolling Eyes

Another (possibly stupid) question:

Can the extra costumes/stuff in Street Fighter4, that you buy online, be used with the burned version of the game on a non-hard drive (Arcade) Xbox360 ?

Yeah, there's never a problem with DLC and copied games. As far as the console is concerned, the game is the same deal (which is why there has always been talk of making sure the bytes match up exactly and so on). I've used Fallout 3 DLC, Scene It!, Burnout and others all with copied games and they all work perfectly. Although I wouldn't recommend buying the extra costumes for SFIV given that they should be free, but that's just my two cents (or less).

But isn't this DLC too big to fit on DVD9 along with GTA4?

The GOTY edition of GRAW 2 was a 2xDVD9 edition 1 dvd was the game the other a disk that installed it self on the HDD , the same was with OBLIVION and the same will be here ... and the same will be with Fallout 3 GOTY edition
