Rockstar has been kind enough to send out four brand new screenshots of GTA IV's upcoming DLC The Ballad of Gay Tony to Grand Theft Auto fansites in anticipation for Tuesday's trailer. Take a look:

There seems to be a theme of violence and mayhem here. We're looking forward to a great trailer!

I suppose the last picture is from the mission mentioned in the other thread. Can't wait to try out the new helicopter, looks great.
REALLY looking forward to the trailer now that all of this news is coming out about it, I'll be certainly getting it the day it comes out.

I think the new helicopter shoots rockets, or something like that. anyway I wish I could have a touch on it :(
That is one HUGE boat. Looking forward to that trailer.

it would be awesome if that boat is drivable
and you could park an helicopter on the heli-pad at the back

I really hope that chopper doesn't shoot rockets.... Multiplayer will be completely shattered again if it does just like TLAD.

It has a machine gun and rockets.

Man, this sounds so cool... Especially with satchel charges added. Nothing is more fun than planting 50 satchels on a large vehicle, parking it in a road, and causing a chain reaction...
I wonder if they'll have a mission like Stowaway from SA. Loved that one.
Also, I noticed an added altimeter next to the radar. Cool :D

Would be great if TLAD weapons and vehicles were included in the game if you had already purchased it as well. Don't know how the game would be able to tell, but for free roaming purposes ya know?

Well then maybe the heli won't be so overpowered as the one in TLAD. If it is an alright well rounded heli then they better have it in free mode to fuck around with because I really hated the fact that they removed the annihilator from free mode before simply because it was overpowered.

I thought the Annihilator in TLAD only had rockets in the Chopper vs. Chopper mode? Otherwise being precise enough to hit a small target with a machine gun would be very difficult.

No, the annihilator in TLAD had explosive rounds in all modes. The original annihilator may be hard for most to use but that makes it so much more satisfying to use when you master it. I love the original and wish they wouldn't change it..
I'm hoping the rockets on the new helicopter are limited, in that you can only fire them off in slow succession. If that makes sense.

Those are incredibly awesome screenshots. They make me want the game even more! Also is it just me or do the graphics look greatly improved?

The helicopter looks bad ass, like it came out of the Private Military. I like that.
Hopefully the parachute will be a weapon, like in San Andreas.
