The Ballad of Gay Tony
Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony is the second of the two episodic expansion packs for the Xbox 360 version of the video game Grand Theft Auto IV, developed by Rockstar North scheduled for release 29 October 2009. It is the fourth expansion pack game in the Grand Theft Auto series, and the fourteenth release overall.

The Ballad of Gay Tony follows the exploits of a new protagonist, Luis Fernando Lopez, a member of the Northwood Dominican Drug dealers and the personal bodyguard of Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince. Rockstar Games claim in their press release that this episode "injects Liberty City with an overdose of guns, glitz, and grime" and that "players will struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price."

A combined standalone disc-based package titled Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City, which will not require the original Grand Theft Auto IV game to be played, is planned to be released alongside the second expansion and will contain both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.

    Turret looks a bit weird for a BTR-90 right? Maybe a bit higher too.

    But maybe it's just inspired by those.

    I don't think the GTA guys make exact versions of a specific vehicle, so probably just mostly based on a BTR-90
