Exactly, this is all good news for PS3 owners and for Sony since it's finally been pushed into action.

O RLY?  Well this new R* exclusive is going to be terrible and its not gonna impact much.

(!!!! I can see the future too!)

 

BTW How much did Sony pay for this one?

 

This is so funny.  All of these 3rd parties, esspecially rockstar, must be laughing their asses off all the way to the bank while sony and microsoft keep paying them for exclusive content/games.  This industry is so backwards.


You know what an opinion is? Look it up in a dictionary. I'd rather have them pay for exclusives then have the companies put shovelware on my console like another company out there.

Edit: I also would apreciate it if you weren't condescending and didn't type stuff in caps and leave 5 line spaces between stuff.

Frankly, GTA is wearing off as the CASUALS who made it are going to the wii

The other thing is GTA IV is completely different from GTA SA, you can't just go around killing people n stealing Cars anymore, its much more complex

They didn't say that anywhere. I am pretty damn confidant you can still do that or it wouldn't be GTA. The freedom of action is the core of a sandbox game so there is no way they would limit your freedom like that, it's the bread and butter of the series. It's like Gears dropping the cover system or Mario dropping jumping (on rails Sony anyone?) or something.

GTA probably fits in the strategy for Microsoft to remove exclusives from it's old competitioner. GTA will sell some extra XBox'es but in the long run i think SOny made a good choise of making another exclusive. I felt that the whole GTA thing is wearing off, i played it since the first 2D version but they are still repeating themselves over and over again. In popular term one could say that it's just a collection of minigames.

Did you just say GTA is a collection of minigames? You need to check out games of that genre and then go back and see how GTA is not that at all, I mean there are some mini games and missions on the sides but this term means something very specific nowadays.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Good on Sony for this move. It was probably a choice between this or keeping rockstar exclusive. If you're an ambitious developer, you definitely want to test the limits of RSX/Cell and Blu-ray, so I look forward to this as it unfolds.

Killzone is still being mocked by 360 fans. You say anything about that game all they say is the 1st one was a joke and halo 3 will be the best game ever made..

@leo-j

Let them mock, the things they mock and talk about the most show that they are actually jealous of them and they wanna make us feel less happy about having them

i.e - Mgs4, Killzone 2

It's also gotten a lot better on this forum since then, heh...

But yeah, I agree that it's looking up for Sony lately. 



Oh you Sony diehards you! The second Sony doesn't get the best version of the next Grand Theft Auto there are already people downplaying the series significance and value now!

Oh my, the extra content on the 360 version won't matter much to sales? I'm so sure you'd be saying the same thing if the PS3 had the extra content.

And Avalanch21 got you good Ckmlb, Don't try and deny it. Be a man and own up to it. If you present your opinion in such a manner, you're leaving it wide open for being called out, and rightfully so. An opinion for the sake of being an opinion doesn't put it on an untouchable level. If you really want to run with this logic then let's go through each and every one of your posts to see if this is a logic you can honestly adhere to in your own words and actions.

I hope you don't plan on responding to this because after all this is my opinion and that according to you that in itself should be enough to protect it from any scrutiny.

Also, to all those whining about Sony nay-sayers, a thread stops being a simple News thread or Sony thread the second you start using it in anyway to bash or criticize another console or game's status, value or position. I'm sorry, but you're asking for trouble, and you damn well know it. Maybe if Sony Soldiers didn't get so carried away with topics like these they wouldn't turn into mud slinging.

ON TOPIC: I wonder how much Sony had to pay for this game? Or maybe Rockstar is using this game as leverage in playing the field and increasing demand for their products. Hope its not just a GTA clone. I'll be looking forward to playing it when my brother gets it.

EDIT: Took out the Lawls to make post less annoying.

Things that have changed since the last Generation of Gaming:

- Nintendo has shown us you can have the best selling console of all time with virtually no games for it.

- Graphics suddenly matter to Sony fans but Reverse Compatibility and Dual shock oddly enough don’t.

- Kiddy Crap is trendy with Hardcore gamers now that it’s no longer Nintendo’s “thing” (Viva Piñata, Little Big Planet, Banjo Kazooie 3, LBP)

- Third Party Developers are now essentially the equivalent of Video Game street pimps.

- Gimmicks are no longer fads (Wii-mote)... Well, not all Gimmicks (PS-Eye)
