I don't know which ones you haven't played, so I'm just going to list whichever ones come to mind.

Infamous collection

Tomb Raider

GTA IV Complete Edition

Assassins Creed 1

Assassins Creed: Ezio Trilogy

Far Cry 3

Skyrim

Hitman: Absolution

Uncharted 1 & 2 pack

Uncharted 3

ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection

Heavy Rain

Though there are probably many more that I'm forgetting.

Edit: Had to remove Assassins Creed 3 because the price went up to $34.77.

Yes. GTA IV, The Ballad Of Gay Tony and The Lost And Damned are 3 completely separate games and stories, all set in Liberty City.

It would be easy to say that they're the same story, told from the perspectives of 3 different protagonists, but I don't really think that's true - the characters bump into each other, collaborate at times, and fight, but the story of Nico and his brother is quite separate from that of the psychotic leader of a biker gang and his deputy or of Tony Prince and his protege Luis Lopez.

You can play any of these games without having played or knowing anything about the others. Only when you play a second one will you recognise the occasional scene or robbery or car chase from the others - but only occasionally, they don't overlap that much.

I think the original GTA IV itself is a bit long and serious, whereas I found The Ballad Of Gay Tony a better length and a lot more satisfying.

You might say that one of the stories is about loss, and another is about rivalry - Gay Tony is about friendship and standing by each other. Even though I'd played both the other stories first, Gay Tony reinvigorated my interest in Liberty City and bought it back to life again, for me.

As far as buying the games are concerned, GTA IV was originally a stand-alone release, then The Lost And Damned and The Ballad Of Gay Tony were released as DLC and then together on a disk as Episodes from Liberty City. That disk is stand-alone, and you don't need the original GTA IV to play it, however you might be better off just buying The Complete Edition, depending on local pricing - here in the UK it's only £2 more, so you might as well.

I personally disagree. Why is asking for more money after a game is launched "supporting" it? And if a game is complete from launch, why do they need to sell more content later?

If the game came out at launch at $100 with 48 tracks, people would have been calling nintendo out on an $100 price point. Why is asking for $10 for 4 maps, which is what people seem to want to pay, any different? It blows my mind that not only is that kind of price model accepted, but actively encouraged.

Even developers know that releasing with planned DLC isnt complete. Look at the names of some of the games bundles with DLC:

GTA4: The complete edition, which clearly means that the former version without the DLC is the incomplete edition.

Dynasty Warriors 8 xtreame legends complete, again, what does this mean the previous Dynasty Warriors was?

LA Noire: The Complete Edition, same deal.

I could go on.

Sure some will call it GOTY edition or something, but dev's all know what it means. One version is complete, the base version is incomplete. I would be very disappointed if Nintendo sold more tracks as DLC. It isnt an issue of "You dont have to buy it", it is an issue of them abandoning their ideals that you don't release incomplete games.

I have The Orange box, which includes portal, would you trade for Heavy Rain and GTA IV?

Could you elaborate on which version of GTA IV you have?
Is it this one? or this one?
