It's XBL only because MS payed Rockstar piles of cash. I don't really care all that much, since I lost interest in GTAIV's story just over half way through. It was good at the start, but every single mission was always the same thing over and over.

It's because Sony prefer to put their money towards developing entirely new games instead of paying for exclusive DLC. Perhaps it's a shame (especially for GTA fans) but what would you choose- better games or exclusive DLC?

It definitely sucks for PS3 owners who want it. I do find it ridiculous that such substantial content that will add so much to the game is exclusive to one platform, but unfortunately that's what happens when one company is willing to shell out huge money (not that I blame them, frankly).

I would be even more pissed if I didn't have a 360, but fortunately for me, I do, but I'm going to hold-off on buying it in hopes it shows for the PC.

Who knows, though, what exactly the terms of the Rockstar/Microsoft deal are. Perhaps The Lost and Damned is temporarily exclusive, or perhaps it's permanent. Who can say for sure, really? All I know is that the term 'exclusive' doesn't carry much merit this gen, so you never know.

Hopefully it does come to the PS3 because it would be a shame to have that much extra GTA goodness blocked from PS3 owners.

Well, the DLC was announced as exclusive long before GTA4 even came out, so it's not as if it's a surprise or anything.

Resistance, Heavenly Sword, Folklore, Little Big Planet, Uncharted etc. Sony has put out a hell of a lot more new first party IPs than MS or Nintendo. If anyone sounds like a fanboy, it's yourself.

They kind of had to, since launching late and overcomplicating the hardware gave an early third party edge to Microsoft. They also had to counter the money Microsoft injected into development of JRPGs, even if it didn't really pay off (one could argue that Lost Odyssey was decent, but Blue Dragon was very derivative). Also, Motorstorm.

I have yet to come across any DLC that piqued my interest. Most of it just seems kind of forgettable. So, I'm not sure how this will be much more different.

Plus, you're totally locked into it and can't sell it if you hate it or change your mind later on, which is something that's always bugged me about downloadable games and addons.

Well I guess for people that don't play a lot of games they would want a GTA IV expansion, but for gamers that play all kinds of games, the GTA games haven't been anything special since GTA III. After that it is just same thing just different setting (80's Vice City, African American San Andreas, Foreigner IV)

so i was moderated earlier for a comment i made on this topic. so i will try again w/ the same point, but w/ different words. it doesn't bother me that the 360 is getting this dlc, but it upsets me to hear 360 owners start their bragging over this topic after only viewing one trailer that was mediocre at best. i do hope that i will be playing a decent title (maybe WKC or KZ2) when the 360/GTA4 owners are playing their dlc. i think it will be just more of the same GTA4 experience with a new character. to whoever moderates these forums. if what i just wrote is out of place then take a minute and check out the comments made on this topic in your news category.

I play loads of games from all genres, across all consoles, handhelds and the PC, and yet I would want the GTA IV expansion, and I also thought that GTA IV was incredible. Best in the series, in fact.

If you've played gta4, then you'll be pretty much aware how the lost and the damned is going to turn out. There's no loss in not getting it.

Good point! certainly it looks a lot better and has some improvements, but it's just the same GTA game... i personally think that Vice City was way cooler!

Better spend money in developing other games rather than pay for DLC's, we can't all play GTA games alone, people want other games too... besides, the past GTA's didn't have thoes DLC's and they're still very great. the PS3 isn't just about GTA and a particular group of fans... if that's the case, all the games that doesn't have a DLC/expansion will suck... unfair.

Didn't Sony do a deal with Rockstar that they wouldn't get DLC, but they would get a new exclusive instead? I'm not so sure about the deal, but I do know Rockstar is making an exclusive for the PS3, and I'm prett sure I heard about the source from somehere.

^ If you have that info then you should show the proof. Back to the subject, I think exclusive dlc is dumb, especially if the games are multi. The same thing is happening with Fallout 3. They would make more money having the dlc coming out on both systems then on just one.

I have GTAIV for the Ps3 and as much as I would like to play this expansion I don't really feel like shelling out extra dough for a game I already have on a different console. There are plenty of other games that I am and will be playing in the mean time. So it's not so much that big of a deal for me, I can do without.

Meh. I'd be more upset if we didn't get the Valkyria Chronicles dlc. Valk. is a bazillion times better than gtaiv. Gtaiv is no chump either though. It was just kinda overhyped and underwhelming. My blockbuster had like literally 20 used copies of the game that they couldn't sell at 34.99. So they had to mark it all the way down to 14.99 for people to buy it.

Also they took way too long for the dlc to even come out. Now alot of ps3 owners have moved on and are getting amped for killzone 2 and uncharted. I am kinda glad sony didn't spend 50 million on dlc. I am almost sure they wouldn't have gotten their money back.

Wow, i wonder if it was really worth it to ms. Can they really recoup the 500 mil from 20 dollar dlc? How many times would it have to be downloaded to make the money back? 25 million downloads?

It was 50 million, & the DLC that is mentioned says it will not be on the same scale as the 360, so I wouldn't go expecting another 10hour camapign + exclusive multi player modes (actually, might be multiplayer modes).

I didn't like GTA when it came out so I didn't care about exclusive DLC. Now that I'm almost done with GTAIV (man this game is ENDLESS) I have to say that it would great to have some more. Considering how much is already in the game that I have barely even done, I think I'll be fine. There is just so much to do, exclusive DLC almost a year late seems a bit weird. $50 mill? Really? Can't say I don't want it though. Looks interesting. You can shoot a damn shotgun while riding your bike. That's awesome! :D

I can't wait to play it. I bought it from Amazon.com because they had it where you bought the Lost and the Damned for 21.74 you'd also get three months of Xbox Live for free. I was like sweet deal. I also watched the vids, and read about it. I can't wait.

It's not going to come to PS3 until later if at all. I own both systems and I have to say being a PS3 supporter is like being a red headed step child, the only exclusivity we can count on is Sony published/developed games. Anything third party is most likely going to lead with the 360, probably run better on the 360 and probably get any exclusive content (simply because the install base to sell it to is greater). I kind of prefer my PS3 over my 360 but its very difficult to do so with the lack of respect the PS3 is shown....and now I have to get Resident Evil 5 on 360 because the game's textures look better on the 360 and the PS3 version has more slowdown. This is of course based off the demo comparisons and could change but this would be nothing new and I would not be at all surprised if this still holds true in the final releases...I'm not shocked that the 360 gets exclusive content when the vast majority of games run better on the thing anyway...and obviously its easier/more fun to work with. Oh well I'm hopin in the very near future both consoles get equal time, devotion, resources and content...
