More GTA 4: The Lost and Damned Screenshots

February 13, 2009 1:37 PM

Accompanying yesterday's trailer, here are a few new screenshots from The Lost and Damned, the first of Rockstar's two Xbox 360-only Grand Theft Auto IV expansions.

Requiring a physical copy of Grand Theft Auto IV to play, The Lost and Damned will hit as a $20 Xbox Live Marketplace download next Tuesday, February 17. During its first six days of availability, Xbox 360 owners will be able to engage in online multiplayer for both Grand Theft Auto IV and The Lost and Damned without needing to pay for Xbox Live.

  Only for 360 is a major bummer - but the newest patch + newest Nvidia drivers makes it run great for me. I max everything out but med. textures and about 44 distance averaging 40fps. Now it did run pretty bad initially and after the first patch.

  I have the newest patch and the game runs OK, but I can't change the graphics settings from the default levels. It says that my graphics card doesn't have the available memory. I have a 8800GTS 320 MB card. I can't set the texture resolution to 'medium' or even up the screen resolution to 1680x1050. Is there any way to override these settings so that I can see for myself if I'm pushing the card too far?
  
  Even with the low textures, the city still looks great with an awesome view distance.

    You can override the restrictions buy making a shortcut to LaunchGTAIV.exe which is in the main game folder and from the there ad the argument to the end of it -norestrictions with a space between the exe and the -.

      thanks. I tried it but it doesn't seem to provide any more flexibility with the graphics options. I bought the game through steam - I don't know if that makes a difference.
