My word is and has always been impeachable. And because that is so, everywhere I go, I command that respect. I give it and I expect it back in kind. No exceptions.<BR/><BR/>However, since I am a sporting chap, I'll play your little game and "prove myself" for the world to see. <BR/><BR/>The original story was broke two years ago by Newsweek. Unfortunately, that article is no longer on their site (but then neither are most stories from two years ago). However, plenty of video gaming media periodicals covered the Newsweek story and pretty much repeated the bullet points of what was said in the original piece. Below, is a link to one such article provided by Gamespot, where they explain in plain enough English, how Rockstar Games <I>tried</I> to approach Sony with GTA4 exclusively, but Sony had their heads stuck up their asses at the time, would not get back to Rockstar with an answer. Microsoft seizing the opportunity, swooped in and picked up GTA4 plus an additional $50 million worth of exclusive content. The same thing happened with Assassin's Creed. And according to the original Newsweek article, about a dozen other PS3 exclusives were all picked up by Microsoft the exact same way: Mercenaries 2, Devil May Cry 4, everything Namco has done this generation including Air Combat, Eternal Sonata, the Tales series and the list goes on. It was Sony who clearly dropped the ball and opened the floodgates for Xbox 360's success this generation.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/grandtheftauto4/news.html?sid=6162084" REL="nofollow">http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/grandtheftauto4/news.html?sid=6162084</A><BR/><BR/>IGN has similar articles covering the same story. With every major video gaming site, magazine and blog all having similar articles. It took all of 30 seconds to Google this information, and the above link was the top result on the page. <BR/><BR/>In the weeks after this story broke, follow up interviews would go up at various gaming sites confirming the Newsweek story in full. It is at this point where definite confirmation from both Rockstar and Sony of said events would surface. And later still, Jack Tretton, Executive Vice-President of Sony Computer Entertainment, would give an interview where he pretty much completely downplays the importance of losing the GTA exclusivity. A sentiment that many other Sony VPs would echo and elaborate upon in the following months, including one who stated the series was no longer important to Sony. Worse still, Sony would go on to actually attempting to prove their point, that GTA was no longer important to them. During both E3 2006 and E3 2007, at the Sony press conferences, Sony would boycott any mention of GTA4; they would not mention a single word about GTA4 while they were busy profiling all of the games they considered important, that were coming to the PS3 in 2006, 2007 and 2008. They virtually acted as if GTA4 was not coming out to the PS3 at all, during the biggest trade show in videogaming, for two consequtive years. If not securing an exclusive that was handed to them on a platter, was the biggest fumble of this generation, then spending the last two years pretending that GTA4 was not important to PS3 . . . well hell, I just ain't got words for that.<BR/><BR/>http://news.softpedia.com/news/Sony-039-s-Losing-GTA-Exclusivity-48683.shtml<BR/>http://media.ps3.ign.com/articles/705/705941/vids_1.html<BR/>http://media.ps3.ign.com/articles/803/803629/vids_1.html<BR/><BR/>Next time, instead of trying to call someone out because you're too lazy to do your own research, or even secretly disagree with what he has to say, Google it yourself.

Also, they have said that they want this game to "last for years" in an official PS mag. Saying that in a PS mag when they are only going to make it "last for years" on only one console seems a little off to me, don't you think?<BR/><BR/>Now, to this post; WHAT IS GOING ON!! I'm darkpower, the one that was posting those blogs on N4G, and I will have you know that it was me that caught Torrence Davis (the one that said that Microsoft said all of this) in the lie of his life. So much so that I call his site the "Bluffbag", yet not many people are now even listening, so here's the thing about this:<BR/><BR/>I had posted a blog stating that there were other people saying different things about the DLC, and how everything else that Microsoft supposedly said at the GDC 08 blogger breakfast was laughable (they had also said the RROD rate went down). The truth is that he said one thing as to what the people at that thing said about the DLC, then told us they said a totally different thing.<BR/><BR/>Fact is, they had blown this issue way out of proportion before with the multiplayer. Rockstar has said nothing about anything else being exclusive beyond the first two things (and we don't know still if there are more on the way this year than just those two). No one outside of the know it alls actually know what Rockstar has said. I'm even expecting some sort of an "April surprise" bombshell (something that is announced just days before the GTA4 release. I'm calling it here first and now).<BR/><BR/>So don't go spreading this lie before you hear all of what this was about.

Your ire should not be directed at Rockstar or even at Microsoft. When Rockstar began work on GTA 4, they went to Sony and offered complete exclusivity of the game to Sony on a golden platter. That's right, or maybe you have not been keeping up with GTA news. Rockstar Games offered Sony GTA4 exclusivity. Not DLC exclusivity, but the whole damned game, exclusively. <BR/><BR/>Sony (and both Rockstar and Sony have publicly admitted to this fact) did not have the time of day for Rockstar's exclusivity offer and refused to return all their numerous phone calls or even make counter offers to the price for said exclusivity. At that moment, the 360 version of GTA4 was born. And unlike Sony, Microsoft was more than willing to deal with Rockstar to get anything from GTA4 exclusively on the Xbox 360.<BR/><BR/>The very fact that Rockstar refused outright to bring GTA4 exclusively to Xbox 360 and continue to make a PS3 version at all, is out of kindness to Playstation owning GTA fans. The very fact that you are even getting GTA4 at all on PS3 is because of Rockstar's generosity. So telling the world that Rockstar sold out their fans is a load of BS and you need to check yourself on that. GTA4 almost became a Xbox 360 exclusive and that is Sony's fault and no one else. Matter of fact, has anyone noticed how much Sony has downplayed the importance of GTA4 on PS3 ever since it was announced? Heck, they had their show at E3 last year where they promoted all their top titles for 2007/2008, and they did not say a single word about GTA4. And at least one Sony exec, when it was publicly reported that Sony refused to return calls to Rockstar over the exclusivity offer that was made, at least one Sony Computer Entertainment VP went on record as stating the reason they refused to return Rockstar's phone calls, was that GTA was no longer important to Sony. <BR/><BR/>So if you are going to sit here and bitch because you feel that you got ripped off on this deal, at least get your facts straight and direct your anger at the people responsible for completely dropping the ball in the first place. And all those people responsible (Phil Harrison, Ken Kuturagi, Jack Trenton, etc.) worked at Sony.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-89218605352401412482008-03-13T00:00:00.000-04:002008-03-13T00:00:00.000-04:00OK guys, I own the 3 system, but since my 360 got ...OK guys, I own the 3 system, but since my <B>360</B> got broken, I didn't play any of its games , the last time I played a game, it was <B>GOW</B> when it first came out, since that time I haven't touched it.<BR/><BR/>so whatever every one says, I will still get GTA4 on PS3.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-78584849682843401282008-03-12T23:58:00.000-04:002008-03-12T23:58:00.000-04:00The DLC just makes the game more expensive, so I g...The DLC just makes the game more expensive, so I guess I will be buying the less expensive version.

Why should I have to buy two consoles in order to experience the great content that's out there? I don't have to buy 2 different DVD players to watch the movies I want. I know the different systems have different capabilities, but forcing players to purchase two high priced systems in order to enjoy all of the video games out there is a huge disservice to the fans. In a way I feel like they're saying sorry, but you shouldn't have been stupid enough to buy that system. Now I own an XBox 360, and I don't own a PS3. There's a part of me that says it's nice that we're both getting screwed by exclusive content, but the bigger part of me says wouldn't it be nice if there just wasn't any exclusive content.? Wouldn't it be nice if PS3 owners could enjoy the GTA 4 DLC, and I could enjoy FF XIII. I think the major publishers need to get together and form a standardization committee for consoles, kind of like what the w3c did for the web. Come up with a standard for a console that they will all support for 5 years, and put an end to exclusives. The publishers could open up the standard console so anyone can manufacture it. Obviously the console would be a bit more expensive, but wouldn't it be worth it to not have to guess which console to buy the next go around?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-8705908792794970062008-03-12T20:10:00.000-04:002008-03-12T20:10:00.000-04:00Lets face it the DLC is not really a problem.

The people who own both consoles will buy the version for the console they prefer and play the most. For the people waiting on buying a console for this game lets be honest most people have a fair idea on which console they want. If they decide to buy a 360 just for extra content on GTA then they seriously need help. Adding the cost of xbox live as well the total just keeps adding up. GTA DLC will not see Xbox 360's flying off the shelf people will pick there console based on already released exclusive games and upcoming exclusive games.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-801921722219074362008-03-12T19:35:00.000-04:002008-03-12T19:35:00.000-04:00im pretty upset, i will not be picking up this gam...im pretty upset, i will not be picking up this game for any system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-72011122996204608772008-03-12T19:10:00.000-04:002008-03-12T19:10:00.000-04:00The xbox DLC isnt going to be anything like vice c...The xbox DLC isnt going to be anything like vice city or san andreas, they games took 2 years each to make and rockstar arent going to waste all there time and lose money making these.

GTA4 has been designed for both consoles but $50,000,000.00 assured the 360 would be the sole beneficiary of major downloadable content. The PS3 might enjoy some down the road, but it will not be the same stuff. There is no fact stating that the content is San Andreas size, but $50 million dollars is damn near the budget of GTA4 and you had better believe that buys a little more than five or ten extra missions.<BR/><BR/>I am not on here to hate on the PS3, I think 2008 will be a banner year for the console and I will start using it for games rather than Blu-rays. As far as GTA4 goes? Definitely 360 all the way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-81412829496404949442008-03-12T12:41:00.000-04:002008-03-12T12:41:00.000-04:00Please Stop Calling it Fighting!!!Please Stop Call...Please <B>Stop</B> Calling it Fighting!!!<BR/>Please <B>Stop</B> Calling us <B>idiots</B><BR/><BR/>we are here having civilized discussion, and we are trying to look at this issue in several perspective.<BR/><BR/>Thanks guys for your input in that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
