10 Video Game DLC Packs That Are The Most Value For Money

5. Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad Of Gay Tony

While many GTA IV players praised its gritty and more serious tone, it was true that there was something whimsical missing in Niko's struggle to find wealth and success in a ruthless Liberty City. The same certainly could not be said of the game's second expansion pack; The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Putting players in the shoes of reformed dealer Luis Lopez, players find themselves employed as the bodyguard of night club owner Gay Tony. As a character who featured in the main game and first DLC expansion The Lost and Damned, Gay Tony was the perfect individual to build the game's final content around. The story and missions focused heavily around issues of excess and frivolity in this socialite's life, bringing a much-needed humorous edge to the game.

The story in The Ballad of Gay Tony added plenty of new campaign content, and reintroduced some series features that were sadly missing from GTA IV originally. The likes of base jumping activities were part of what made this add-on so exciting again, and the DLC itself actually managed the impressive feat of truly enhancing its base game when installed.
