The Lost and the Damned expansion is available for download on Xbox live today and follows the story of biker Johnny Klebitz.  The game is set, once again, in Liberty City and features the same beautiful and realistic graphics and game play from the original GTA4 release.

With all new stories, characters and even more envelope pushing content, GTA fans are sure to get their money’s worth out of this $19.99 downloadable title. Grand Theft Auto 4: The Lost and the Damned
has been rated M by the ESRB and can only be played on the Xbox 360 with the original GTA4 game disc.

Also available today is Street Fighter 4. This title marks Capcom’s return to the classic arcade fighting of Street Fighter 2. Players will recognize series veterans like Ryu, Ken and Chun Li and will also enjoy several newcomers. Capcom has brought the Street Fighter series into this generation with beautiful 3D graphics, while still maintaining its essential 2D fighting experience.

Street Fighter 4 has been rated T by the ESRB and is playable on both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3.
