If MS were serious, they should've released that limited edition gta4 elite (only 500 were produced) to the public and bundled it with the game. It would've sold much better than the Halo theme 360.

Sadly... for most of the older people coming into the store I work at this is true so... QFT!

DMeisterJ said: Theoretical Conversation between a 'casual', and a GameStop employee Customer: I'd like to buy Grand Theft Auto IV Employee: For which system? C: Does it matter? E: Well, the 360 version is 'complete'? C: How so? E: It has Exclusive episodic content available to download in the future C: Cool, is it free? E: No, you have to pay for it. C: Does the PS3 version have this EEC? E: No, nothing to download after you buy it. C: So on the 360, I have to pay to play the complete version of the game? E: Yes. C: I want to buy the Arcade [360], since I wanted UNO on the 360, will the downloads fit on the itty-bitty memory card they gave me? E: Most likely not, you'll have to buy one of the XBOX 360 hard drives. C: Those are hideously overpriced, so I can't even play the full version of the game if I buy the Arcade, which is for casual people to buy? E: I wouldn't put it like that, but yeah. C: Okay, I think I'll take the PS3 version then, it just feels like less hassle. I mean, I don't think that that's exactly how the conversation will go, but I do think that this DLC is only going to be important to 'hardcore' gamers. |
Umm...what? The only way that conversation will end like that if the customer buying GTA4 is not a complete fan of the franchise. (Customer still buys game and allbut will not likely finish it.)
Ask anyone who is a DIEHARD fan or ANYONE that's a fan of GTA4 this question, not even mentioning what version is on what console: "What version of GTA4 would you most likely get? The 'complete' version or the 'incomplete' version?" (Complete version meaning, The Complete GTA4 Experience)
How many people will want the 'INCOMPLETE' version of GTA4?
The End.

Looking forward to the commercials. Hope it's good
It's not going to be the same, this is an exaggeration.
Will there be a GTA IV drink? Niko on Burger King cups and wrappers?
This is a multiplatform 3rd party game, not 1st party MS.
Also some people are really overestimating the importance of DLC, the cheaper price of the 360 will be a much bigger factor.
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

lol wut? The advertising is for the 360 GTA IV, not the PS3 one :P This should help the 360 GTA IV a lot.

M$ still has to put that the game is on the PS3 as well; otherwise Sony can sue them for fase-advertising.
You will see at the very end the typical black screen with the GT4 logo and XBLA and PS3 on it, followed by the screen with the giant 360 icon.
Same advertising style as COD4 received.
@SSJ: The CoD4 commercial would have had you believe that the game was PS3-exclusive. Same with the Sony-funded Assassin's Creed ad.

exactly but the black screen still showed the XBL thing in the final title screen
