Both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony were also released together on a single boxed game disc called '''[http://www.rockstargames.com/episodesfromlibertycity/ Episodes From Liberty City]''', on October 29, 2009. Unlike the individual episodes, Episodes From Liberty City doesn't require the original GTA IV game. The disc includes three new radio stations exclusive to the double-pack version to compensate for some music not carried over from GTA IV. The single-episode DLCs do not contain exclusive music, but the original music is been carried over. Players who do not have GTA IV installed on their console will find that some phone conversation dialog in Episodes From Liberty City is missing. | Both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony were also released together on a single boxed game disc called '''[http://www.rockstargames.com/episodesfromlibertycity/ Episodes From Liberty City]''', on October 29, 2009.
