Rockstar: the 360 version will be the definitive version

good point

[QUOTE="Frier6000"]

if xbox360 is soo great as many claim why does ms have to go and give rockstar 50 millon dollars just to have an upper hand for gta4?

They do? Like who? Bungi..oh..wait, they let those guys go didn't they? Odd for such a monster to do. ;D

Anywho to the original question! The Xbox360 is "soo great" as you put it because of things like this, Microsoft gets us two huge downloads coming up, sure we'll have to pay but the point is we're getting it and you're not. Graphics? Who cares, content is where it's at Microsoft sells more copys, they attract more people to their console AND their customers are happy.

Pity sony wont do these things.

Wow, 50M I just saw some guy here bragging about how some game has a budget of 40M and was talking about how big a deal it was. I wish I could remember which title it was.

Btw, R* are my heros, they took money for PS2 exclusivity and they took money for 360 extra content these guys make great gangster games because they are straight up criminals. :lol:

and also found holes in the contract and brought all the gta games on the xbox(thus i got some fun too)

Is anyone with both a PS3 and 360, getting the PS3 version ?

I mean the DL content is the size of San Andreas, who would miss getting double the game ?

And achievements ?

And custom music lists while playing ?

So ?

The size of san andreas you say? surely that cant be right. i hope it is though.

I am sure they mean the hours. But if they add something the size of San Andreas, wow, that would be a huge addon. (but wouldn't happen)

i'd take that over extra DLC, but thats just me

Lol not if EA buys Take Two. You know money hungry they are.

[QUOTE="-wii60-"][QUOTE="Uptown"]PS3 version for me. I prefer the dualshock controller....and well, free online multiplayer. Im not in the giving to microsoft mood for XBL Gold which is expiringwetspot96

Thats your opinion. Honestly Im pretty sure the DLC wont be important to the overall story. So in the end if you dont care about the DLC then PS3 version is jsut fine. Like me I dont care for the dlc.

you say that without knowing or hearing anything much about it. wait till it comes out and you see or hear exactly what it is and what they put into it before you say how much you don't care about it. that'd make sense.

it's so funny right now. we're on a game site and people are posting about how they don't care about extra gaming content to a huge gaming franchise. I haven't played a GTA game yet where i didn't wish there was more after i finished it...all the sudden now, "eh...DLC, that's too much game". i'm not calling yah cows but.......i don't know how to finish this sentence.

Ok so your telling me Rockstar will actually make you pay extra for the ending? I play GTA for the story thats there and thats it. I dont really beg for more after its done.

The man from DGC specifically mentioned San Andreas, whatever he meant after that, it is HUGE !!!! for a DL content, it is more like an expansion, making 360 version the ONLY version of GTA4 i owuld ever buy

Well, with MS paying 50$ million, i did not expect less TBH

Again, unless this DLC turns out to be an entirely seperate game, this bickering is pointless. At the end of the day, on April 29th each system is getting the same game. Once we see what the DLC turns out to be (and at what cost $$$), we can all determine if it is actually worth it. Last time I checked, R* hasn't said a word on what the contents of the DLC would be.

If MS is willing to put up $50Mill for it, they better make sure it's the size of San Andreas. I'm anxious to see what it is, though. If it's some crap that could have easily been implemented into the original game, you guys should feel ripped-off after buying it.

I hope they give you 360 guys something worth wild, though. LCS and VCS were cool games for $20 each. That's two GTA's for the price of (less than, actually) one. Even though I don't own a 360, I can easily buy one. So if the DLC is worth the $$$, I might have to get it. Otherwise, I'm sure www.GTAmissions.com will have clips of the missions on their site.

yea but u wouldn't mind more...yes the storyline will end with the base game. but the DLC is continued chapters or so it was said it will be. it comes out months after the base game is released so you can play the game until it get what u want out of it and a couple more months down the line you can play some more brand new ****, it's a good deal whether anyone wants to admit it or not. play the game until u get bored with it or out of it what u want....by another game to play in those couple months...then "wow" some brand new GTA missions to download and play...its like getting 3 new GTA in less than a year. it's a great deal....very attractive.

you don't have to beg for anything...they're givng it to us(for a price yes, but why the hell wouldn't they charge. at least it isn't $60 dollars they're charging and it's said to have {{8}} extra hours of gameplay. great deal). you can barely get 8 hours of gameplay out of Heavenly Sword and cows were trying to say how great that game is, and u had to pay the full $60 for it. and GTA is a major gaming franchise so, yah see the contradiction here?

No, the DL content is HUGE, like 2 expansions with many many hours more of missions and gameplay, from the way it was described, like doubling the game

Also no, the two versions are NOT the same, since one can be enchanced 100% with the DL content, the other can NEVER expand as much in content, whihc means it would be totally useless and worthless to me
