No thanks Rockstar.

Unless they have planes, jet packs, motorbikes that you know are actually fun to ride & all the other things that made GTA:SA far more superior to GTA4.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

"ooh it's too late"

 

If GTA is a favourite of yours, and some great content is coming out for it, but you're putting it aside clearly because they neglected to give it to the PS3 straight away, you're cutting your nose of to spite your face.

 

Your loss.

Excitement for anything dies down over time...its just human nature. Everyone is excited on their wedding day but a year or more down the line? Not so much...The same applies to games and gaming related content. People just cant be hyped forever.

Really bad analogy, of course someone is going to be more excited on their wedding day rather than a day looking back on it 2 years later.

Hype doesn't matter, the actual content does, and that's exactly the same content as the day and date release on the Xbox. The experience isn't any less.

The "excitement" in my analogy is in reference to the actual marriage not just the wedding day itself. The wedding day signifies the start or the marriage aka the launch date of the game.

Regardless of the content, I would argue that late/old things just get overlooked no matter how good. There are many times I was wanted certain games when they released but just didn't have the money. Later down the line when I did have the money, I had simply forgotten and never got around to buying them again. You maybe speaking of an "ideal" situation here but in reality, while the experience may be no less, it would still be overshadowed by new games on the pipeline.

How else would you explain the sales of Bioshock ps3? Do you believe that it'll have sold the same if it launched on the same day as the 360 version or at least much earlier than it did?

I would give more credit for a site without a box art because they simply cannot have an official box art indicating 18+ if the game wasn't rated by PEGI.

Only GTAIV was rated by PEGI (from the GTA series):
http://www.pegi.info/en/index/global_id/505/?searchString=grand+theft+auto

This box art is fake (which doesn't means that the game isn't coming for the PS3).

Is this a Joke ?

I am not keen on the GTA 4 DLC anymore tbh. Because there are so much games coming in the next months I wouldnt have time to play it. And 30 Pounds ? To much for DLC really.

thats 2 DLCs

i think its worth it its also the retail version with the new ps3 slim box art

its all good if it comes out this spring or even later on this year its not like there releasing it after the next gta

There is no need to explain to me there is truth in what you're saying, I believe you. I just believe gamers are choosing to miss out due to ridiculous reasons. If LBP was announced for the 360 this christmas, I'd be anticipating it and putting on my list near the top.

Again i stress, he stated he was a GTA fan ... so why wouldn't you get this if you're a GTA fan?

OT: I hope this comes to PS3, it's no good being exclusive to 360 now, it's had the effect Microsoft wanted.

 

And R* need the money!!

*sigh* some people just like to jump the gun so quickly that they miss the simplest answers

With all the hype coming out of Mass Effect 2, Heavy Rain, Alan Wake, God of War III, etc, do you think anyone's really going to prioritize a re-release?

I jumped the gun because I know who I'm talking to. and he was a big fan of GTA. So yeah I expect a big fan of GTA to put this at the top of their list.

If he's a big GTA fan he most likely bought GTA IV already, just like I'm sure you assumed too. Now that we're on the same page, I hope you also don't think he's going to pay full price for a rerelease of an old game with the only incentive being year old DLC. Especially when there are entirely new games?

New game>DLC

I think I get your point now. My only explanation would be that he grew bored or GTA4 gameplay over time or values fresh new gameplay more now? lol, IDK if that makes any sense. I guess it's only geddesmond2 who can explain himself.

Except it isn't a rerelease of an old game, if you knew anything about it you'd know it's both DLC's on it's own disc. That is likely NOT to retail around the same price as a full priced game. Go do your research.
