will save the worldz ......

You can keep these overrated DLCs for that overrated game.

P.S. Kill Crow must like the c*ckadoodle doo. He seems so ecstatic that Gay Tony is still his.

Masamori Sumimura5368d ago

what the hell was that German guy saying then?

his team was on the floor or something and they got to play the PS3 version of Lost and Damned?

what a load of crap

rhood0225368d ago

yeah. That is a head scratcher. Although, I'm not familiar with the guy who posted it. Is he known as a prankster or something?

But, this is one case I'd like to believe R* (despite my gut and history on these matters telling me not to). Not because I'm a fanboy or anything, but because I'd like to believe MS isn't completely retarded by blowing $50 million on a timed exclusive.

Although, it would be pretty damned funny if that was the case.

ZOMBIEMAN15368d ago

common that was a bullsh!t article if GTA4 The Lost in the Damned was going multi sites like IGN or GamePro would be on this like moths to fire the but it didn't happen your the ones dumb enough to believe a no named site would reveal huge news before IGN or GamePro revealed it

whoelse5368d ago

It came from a Sony representative on the Official European PlayStation forums actually.

Publishers deny stuff like this all the time, even right before an official announcement. Rockstar will carry on denying until if it ever does get announced by them.

darx5368d ago

Don't believe everything you read.

LONEWOLF2315368d ago

Hmmm.......maybe its a WHOLE different DLC for the PS3.

DarkArcani5368d ago

Bioshock.... That was denied even when there was proof it was coming to PS3.

i guess people thought MS would let something they paid 50 million for go multiplat

PataponKnight5368d ago

Who cares? GTA sucked anyways, no expansion will make it the slightest bit better, unless you like to do the same missions over and over again.

Masamori Sumimura5368d ago

it sucked in your eyes.

I liked it. Reviews gave it postive grades to.

The millions of people who bought it is a proof that the game is atleast worth something.

People liked gtaIV until it got announced that the xbox would get exclusive episodic content.

TheBlackSmoke5368d ago

err no the general consensus is that the game is way overated and offers nothing new to the franchise other than graphics. The game was just boring unless you like doing the same crap over and over again. Why would i want the DLC when i didnt even bother to finish the main game?

PataponKnight5368d ago (Edited 5368d ago )

It only sold millions because of the name, if it had been called anything else it wouldn't have sold because it was bland and unimaginative, not to mention unoriginal.

thebudgetgamer5368d ago

while it lacked the expansive and exploitation factor San Andres had, from a technical standpoint its one of the best games i have played in twenty plus years of gaming.

:) o well i guess ill just wait untill i buy a 360.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies7d ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken7d ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing697d ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker7d ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing697d ago (Edited 7d ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt7d ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken7d ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

Wasn’t the Table Tennis game the first to use RAGE?

isarai366d ago

Was about to say the same, but they do say first "in the franchise" so 🤷
