DLC > No DLC.

Microsoft buys a winning hand again.


 you do realize both wil have DLC, M$ just bought 2 massive DLC packs. 


Well obviously not.  Now I do though. 

More DLC > Less DLC.

Fixed.

What's funny about all this is that if that DLC was Playstation 3 exclusive we wouldn't hear the end of it.



Just thinking about it, if it wasnt for the delay due to unknown reasons *koffPS3koff*, we would be just finishing the main story and downloading our first DLC episode now!

Because you'd rather have the version from a several months ago with a horrid frame rate?



@EaglesEYe

the DELAY was cause by the ONLINE MODES which are FREE on PS3!

I think that's unlikely unless there was some kind of preview, footage or real breakthrough information available, it's just optional extras the core game is basically the same. The only thing we know is 2 episodes and them not being free. I think some 360 fans are wary of the idea of the PS3 overtaking the 360 pretty soon despite the 1 year (and 5 months or more for most of the world) headstart and the 360 selling faster than the XBox due to the fast pace of XBox sequels being released for the platform combined with a premature XBox demise to push 360 sales.

Microsoft made a big deal of the 2 episodes since a very long time, so IMO fans repeat Microsoft's PR like many did in support of HD DVD.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."

PS3 vs 360 sales

It doesn't really matter to me as long as I get the game, although extra DLC would be a good addition.

 Unlike now when it is barely being mentioned

The PS3 version of GTA IV is outranking the 360 version on amazon.co.uk for quite a while now, that would have been unlikely considering the 360 still larger install base for the UK if you were to believe Microsoft's hype.



 The PS3 console has been miles above the 360, but that is not the case on our sales

There was more polishing and testing to do at that point yes, but that doesnt take half a year.
