Cows thought GTAIV was boring and hated the game,Why would they want a PS3 exclusive for a boring Game:roll:king_A-Holei like it still like it IN FACT I LOVE IT
GTA 5 may be a PS3 exclusive.

Rockstar learned their lesson.
they will dump every thing from that Judas called GTA4 and all the M$ exclusive content and make the REAL next gen GTA on the ps3

Spending more money developing a game while cutting your potential audience by two thirds, it's intellectually bankrupt.

You spend less money by cutting dev costs since you don't have to develop for more than one platform (you already have the devkit, so that's free), and your audience is perhaps loyal enough to follow you rather than the platform. What would you say to those points?You spend less money by cutting dev costs since you don't have to develop for more than one platform (you already have the devkit, so that's free)HuusAsking
By that reasoning many developers would be developing exclusives today, but that isn't the case is it now?
It is not cheaper when you consider they are potentially multiplying their sales without multiplying the development cost, when you have finished making a game for one platform it does not double the costs to make it for another. Most of the work is transferable and only requires adaptions to the additional system; you certainly don't have to remake all the textures, models, sound and levels from scratch.
The financial benefits of cross platform development are so desirable that many developers choose them over incentives offered from staying exclusive. You are saying they should abandon that and limit themselves to the 3rd smallest console install base? Not forgetting that if it was exclusive people would expect the game to push PS3 to the max like Killzone 2 and MGS4, those games took many years to develop and had monstrous development budgets to accommodate PS3's higher development difficulty.
Being so expensive to make doesn't help the exclusivity argument; and PS3 users expecting significantly more content in an exclusive version doesn't help either.
and your audience is perhaps loyal enough to follow you rather than the platform.HuusAsking
Loyality doesn't pay the bills, many developers who were previously exclusive realized that and went cross platform this generation. Square Enix probably realised that when they looked at what a PS3 pushing Final Fantasy was costing them.
Besides the vast majority of people do not care if a company is showing loyality to a specific platform, all they care about is whether a game is accessible on their platform. Despite what some people in SW may like to think; the platform fanboys here do not represent a significant segment among the gaming audience.
[QUOTE="Verge_6"]You're one to accuse someone of denial, seeing as how you're completely discounting the fact that a game on TWO consoles will ALWAYS make more money than a game on ONE console. Doi.Pariah_001
You're (and Kickinurass and Mattbbpl) talking about making slightly more money as opposed to sacrificing a lot less on dual-platform development time for a game that's sure to attract people to whatever console it's put upon.
Can you provide any proof that the costs of developing for another platform will outweigh the profit to be had from having it on multiple platforms? Your whole argument seems to be based on assumptions and speculation.Thing is if it came down to a matter of having to make it on ONE console and one console alone the 360 would win out right. More potential customers, easier to develope for, more potential profit from DLC and Microsoft would undoutbable pour a lot into advertising it and hyping it up, something that Sony fails at rather badly.
In other words: Theres not a chance in hell that it would go exclusive to the PS3 without some big insentive from Sony.
Learnt from what? GTA 4 did very well on the 360 probably even better than PS3? I don't get your logic.Rockstar learned their lesson.

you guys dont seem to notice that rockstar games are "literally " paying their own game developing by multi platform, like it happened with bully.. even a pc version, their tactic is as follows "does it sell? yes? then we release on more platforms..."HellboardIt is literally as simple as this. If the profit margins for having a multiplatform title outweigh those of having a console exclusive title, then R* will choose the former. How any of you see it otherwise is beyond me.
GTA 4 maxed out the dvd on the X360, it can't hold more than 6.8GB of gamedata because MS requires aditional data on each dvd. So it can't use all the 8.5GB for gamedata. That's why we won't see a game like GTA SA this gen:(.Last I checked, SA was smaller space-wise than GTA4. Furthermore, the XBox version of the game was smaller than the PS2 version.[QUOTE="Martin_G_N"][QUOTE="imprezawrx500"] with lots of compression. When rockstar could make it the way they wanted it is 15gb. compression can only go so far for large games like gta4 and dvd9 is on their limit. HuusAsking
To do SA-sized game world with GTA4 level of detail will take years (it took years to do GTA4, recall). By that time, the next console generation will be rolling out with likely cheap high-capacity storage solutions ready to go.
The texture details in GTA4 is a lot bigger than GTA SA from last gen, but GTA SA is still around 3GB. And if you do x5 in graphics and sound you can't possibly get it down to 6.8GB. It's simple math. They allready have a great game engine, so it won't take longer than GTA 4 to make the next GTA, probably less.[QUOTE="HuusAsking"]Last I checked, SA was smaller space-wise than GTA4.

No GTA game was ever a PS exclusive.

GTA2 - PC/PSX/Dreamcast
GTA3 - PC/PS2/Xbox

GTA L&D - 360 :P
If GTA5 its exclusive i find easier to believe its on the 360
If Rockstar were to secure itself with a brand medium that has stabilized consumer bases through a variety of games and game types, they would be maximizing their profits in a scenario of commitment--which is not mentioning the fact that Rockstar has its own following. What little security the Xbox brand has in terms of developer commitment is too specialized to assure greater profits for Rockstar. Halo for instance, even with its highly dedicated consumer base, has very little in common with GTA, Manhunt, Red Dead Revolver, etc..
[QUOTE="Kickinurass"]If Rockstar were to go exclusive, logic favors the 360, seeing as how the 360 version of GTA4 sold more than the PS3 version and is far easier to develop for.Pariah_001
First of all: The entire point behind the controversy of this thread is that the 360 has its own crucial development problems that give the PS3 a specific advantage. Case in point, considering the mutual problems between the development stages for each respective console, you can't make a proper conclusion in regards to which one is truly "easier" to develop for--especially if the games are getting bigger than GTA IV.
Secondly: Programmers have already begun the process of warming up to the PS3 architecture--assuming they haven't finished already. Whatever problems it has allude to development efficiency, which can be helped with both study and experience. In the case of the 360, the technology suffers from a design drawback that can't be worked around. The drain of money caused by the former can be helped whereas the latter is almost always going to involve a fixed hemorrhage of profit that will just get worse with ever-increasing severity in regards to file compression--as the incident with Carmack and Rage shows us.
Finally: Moving back to the benefits of commitment, without having to maintain a concern towards a graphical disparity between the two versions of the game, they'd already be saving large chunks of money since they'd get to bypass the gimping/compressing stages and assuring themselves more market credibility amongst consumers by coming up with game visuals that are superior to their multiplat material.
If they enter a bidding war, then as Microsoft has displayed time and time again this generation, they are going to win it. None of the evidence favors your view that the PS3 is more likely than the 360 to see an exclusive GTA game. You're arguing that Rockstar is going to spend more making a game on the PS3 to reap lower overall returns and the claim makes no sense.Kickinurass
Rockstar actually has a much better relationship with Sony. If it were up to them, they wouldn't wait for a bidding war to pick someone to buy their studio. They talked about it briefly when the issue of their lease with 2k came up.
And again, I'm pointing out that they would be spending LESS on game development whilst an ever increasing consumer base would most definitely surpass cost of development. Assuming you were correct and the amount of people buying the game doesn't increase (very unlikely), the return still makes up for the cost several times over--especially since it wouldn't cost $100 million. So they would have already made more of a profit than they did with dual release.
BTW: http://www.kotaku.com.au/games/2008/11/32_of_ps3_owners_have_gta_iv_and_other_fun_taketwo_statistics.html
Percentage of PS3 owners who bought GTAIV: 32%
Percentage of 360 owners who bought GTAIV: 28%
Your numbers are off.
To begin, my numers aren't off. A larger percetage of PS3 owners bought GTA4 because there is a large difference is user base between the two systems. Going back to grade school math, a lower demoninator yields a higher percetange. However, the X360 version outsold the PS3 version vastly, according to NPD.
I suggest you read International Ecomnies by Pugel. It's a very simple book that details the dynamic nature of the supply demand chain. If Rockstar goes PS3 exclusive, the Xbox 360 owners now have to shell out $460 to play the game (The cost of the PS3 indirectly affects buyer willingness to pay). Some people will not make - the true number I can't guess but I can assure you that the going exclusive wouldn't grow the audience that Rockstar is appealing too.
What I am trying to explain is that there is no reason for Rockstar to go exclusive to either system, and if they were I seriously doubt it would be the PS3. Do you you really think Rockstar is going to sacrifrice a majority of their sales for a bit of creative freedom? Seeing as how the 360 version of GTA4 outsold the PS3 apporx. 2:1, Rockstar would be shooting themselves in the foot going exclusive.
How do you know Rockstar has a better relationship with Sony? Do you work with Rockstar? Have some type of in to their corporate ladder - because from where I'm standing Rockstar shafted the millions of PS3 GTA owners by not giving them access to the Lost and Damned. Rockstar's impartial to either company, I'm sure the only reason they even have the DLC as exclusive is due to Microsoft's loan. Money talks, seriously.

not a chance . GTAIV made millions o 360 if not 10-100's of millions unless ps3 give an offer they cannot refuse they will not get it. its more beleiveable if it was going to be xbox exclusive

Although it has yet to be confirmed, I have a very good feeling that Grand Theft Auto 5 will be exclusive to the PlayStation 3. The reason I think this will happen is because Rockstar stated awhile back that they did not like the storage limit for their game.They wanted to keep it on one disc, but to do this; they had to sacrifice much, according to Rockstar. They have also stated that they do not want to have such a small capacity with the next Grand Theft Auto. The second reason I feel Grand Theft Auto 5 will go exclusive is because Sony has stated that there is a Rockstar title coming exclusively to the PlayStation 3.
As you can see, it could end up going either way. It would be smart for them to keep it multiplatform so that they can make more profit, but Rockstar has stated that they do not like the small capacity that a DVD-9 is limited to. We will just have to wait and see what happens but either way, Grand Theft Auto 5 should be another masterpiece to the series.
Why knock Rockstar for not wanted limits for there games. If I were making a games I to wouldn't want limits, thats like putting limits on your ideas.

Grand Theft Auto 4 was one of the best selling games in history. It had so much hype behind it that caused the game to do unmatched sales numbers. I think for Grand Theft Auto 5 to be exclusive to the PS3, Sony would have to sign an exclusive contract deal with Rockstar. For Rockstar to make Grand Theft Auto 5 a third party exclusive, would be the most foolish move to make, especially in the midst of a recession. Gran Theft Auto 5 should be multiplatform in my opinion because of all the extra money it would rack in and it would be available for most gamers (to those who own only one console). Anything can happen and I'm sure Rockstar will make a smart decision.

For Rockstar to make Grand Theft Auto 5 a third party exclusive, would be the most foolish move to make, especially in the midst of a recession. Gran Theft Auto 5 should be multiplatform in my opinion because of all the extra money it would rack in and it would be available for most gamers (to those who own only one console). Anything can happen and I'm sure Rockstar will make a smart decision.

Although it has yet to be confirmed, I have a very good feeling that Grand Theft Auto 5 will be exclusive to the PlayStation 3. The reason I think this will happen is because Rockstar stated awhile back that they did not like the storage limit for their game.They wanted to keep it on one disc, but to do this; they had to sacrifice much, according to Rockstar. They have also stated that they do not want to have such a small capacity with the next Grand Theft Auto. The second reason I feel Grand Theft Auto 5 will go exclusive is because Sony has stated that there is a Rockstar title coming exclusively to the PlayStation 3.
As you can see, it could end up going either way. It would be smart for them to keep it multiplatform so that they can make more profit, but Rockstar has stated that they do not like the small capacity that a DVD-9 is limited to. We will just have to wait and see what happens but either way, Grand Theft Auto 5 should be another masterpiece to the series.
Why knock Rockstar for not wanted limits for there games. If I were making a games I to wouldn't want limits, thats like putting limits on your ideas.
So why wouldn't it be on the PC? That would mean not exclusive to PS3 (and no GTA has ever been exclusive)Joseph DiGrado

Rockstar never said they would put it only the PS3 :? BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T[QUOTE="CubanBlunt"][QUOTE="HuusAsking"]Funny. That same one was the only one that ever got a 10. And the general consensus is that it's the best of the lot. PS. By the time GTA5 ever sees the light of day (considering how long it took them to make GTA4--and it was the content that was the time killer), we'll be into the next console generation. Storage should not be an issue by then.blue_hazy_basic
Everyone knows this games was not a 10.....the hype made it a 10.
Just like MGS4If you say so, I dont play ratings. I brought GTA because I like the rest of them, the same with MGS4, I dont care about ratings.

You're quoting from the passage talking about PS3 exclusivity maybe thats why i thought it?[QUOTE="CubanBlunt"][QUOTE="HuusAsking"]Funny. That same one was the only one that ever got a 10.

I guess it isn't a ten, it does have only a 98 on Metacritic... that's nowhere near perfect, rite?If you only buy games with good ratings then you must not be playing anything new for the 360, ya'll suck right now.....and for 2008. I dont care about rating. Most of the people on here didn't think it was a 10...or a 98:roll:
