Forums - Gaming Discussion - VP of MS Interview, no multi player for GTA4 on PS3?

sinha on 05 December 2007

This site is so out of hand, everyone who turned this into a flame war and list wars should be warned by the mods.

I love how libellule got things started with "I dont even mention FFXIII, versus, MGS4 and GT5".
Um, actually, I'm pretty sure you DID mention them. Like, right there ^, you're mentioning them.

As for the quote, it could go either way:

"...but there’s multi-play AND downloadable content that consumers will only be able to get on 360."

"...but there’s multi-play, and downloadable content that consumers will only be able to get on 360."



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

Was wondering where my thread went. Nice to see all the responces though somehow it turned into a fanboy war lol. Was just pointing out the possibility of gta4 for the ps3 missing multiplayer which I consider to be pretty significant though of course some may disagree. Would be cool got get some clarfication.

Pretty sure he just meant the extra content to be 360 exclusive and not the multiplay

No, you weren't posting it to see if it was significant or not, you posted it because you enjoy taking hits at the PS3, don't backtrack.

LOL sure whatever you say man.  Your entitled to your opinion I get it fine.  I seen you being on the ps3 nuts for more than a month now and you don't see me crying about it taking shots at you in those post untill now since guess is what you want.  Look if you don't like it then don't post is all.  The gta4 for the 360 will have downloaded content we all know that but multplayer that the ps3 may not have I doubt people knew of this.  How about we agree to disagree and just avoid each other ok :)

Since I'm trying to clarify what you said, and call you out for what you've actually done, I'm "on the PS3s nuts"  [Off topic, it's "I've seen you on the PS3s nuts", not what you posted, get your grammar straight playa].  We don't have to agree to disagree, you shouldn't post things, especially if you don't know if it's true or not.  And look at your title "... No multi-player for GTA4 on PS3?", Yeah you threw the question mark in there, but why wasn't it, "GTAIV Multiplayer question", that makes you look like you're taking a hit on the PS3.  It seems like you post every negative thing you can on the PS3.  Another one of your posts was PS3s sitting on shelves after black friday.  You are the one on the PS3s jock.

LOL sure I'll stop posting since I don't know if they are true or not LOL.  You hear that people this guy has spoken no more speculating about anything! no interviews no nothing.  God knows people love being told what to do.  Seriously man this is a forum, get over yourself LOL or get someone to promote you to a mod so what you say might actually matter.

You really shouldn't post things if you are unsure whether they are true, especially in the inflammatory way your thread title is posted.  I've never said no posting about specualtion, but form the thread and title in a way that does not make people think you are trying to flame.

Wasn't trying to flame.  Wasn't it straight forward?  GTA4 for the PS3 might not have multiplayer according to VP of MS.  Not my fault some people can't comprehend especially if they are looking to start things.  I mean seriously things where fine until one of the PS3 fanboys started talking about other games etc.  Why not ride him, oh yeah because you agree with him.  Again it was fairly simple post about an interview with VP of MS in which he mentions gta4 doesn't appear to have multiplayer.  Seriously is not that hard to comprehend.  Get it now?

No, it really wasn't straightforward, if it was a posst about interviewing GTA IV MP, you shouldn't have singled out the PS3 in the thread title, it makes your intentions look like you're bashing the PS3.  A more appropriate tile would have been "Interview with Microsoft VP talks GTAIV DLC and MP".  Lot less flamebaity, and people would not have gotten offended.
