Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City Coming to PlayStation 3 and PC

The two action packed episodes will also be available for download on the PlayStation Network and Games for Windows® LIVE on March 30, 2010. Each episode boasts the same detailed and immersive Liberty City we all know and love. Games for Windows - LIVE players can enjoy 32-player multiplayer matches and an advanced video editor, and all fans will have the chance to once again listen to the dulcet tones of Liberty City Radio.

[maskedwarrior]

Kind of expected after all the rumors. Another big game for March?

[MasFlowKiller]

Of 2008

sorry R* but WTH is happening to u?
If it barely was profitable in the 360 wat makes you think porting it to the ps3 will do?

this is very illogical, i know that the DLC is superior then the actual game but how many people do u think actually still have the game, specially considering that his was the worst GTA experience of the series(and this is coming from a guy that has a copy of the code of wat the first GTA game was suppost to be, and played every single GTA game including the gameboy color unreleased game)

is not that am hating on R* for releasing it on the 360 but that they could be working on the next GTA instead of porting code of a DLC that barely broke even on its intended console.

"Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City for PS3 will become available in stores on March 30, 2010"

Really u think ur going to make some money off of this?
Heavy Rain
God Of War
MAG
White Knight
BioShock

are all coming out before March 30.
Is it really worth it?

[WildArmed]

bah.. another march title.
Dont see anything good going for it atm.

Maybe the DLC/digital version will get some extra push

PS: Thank MS for funding the DLC for all GTA 4 fans-- lol.. i didn't like GTA 4 much personally

@below:
Dontcha mean,
BAM! There it is!

[deadreckoning666]

I sold my copy of GTA4 ages ago, but this pretty much solidifies my decision not to buy a 360 this generation. If M$ paid $50 million for these episodes, just to have them as timed exclusives, then I'd be incredibly surprised if the same thing doesn't occur with Mass Effect 1 and 2. Things aren't looking good for the 360.

@skv- Man, all I can say right now is..BOOOOOM!!! With the Bayonetta patch(and future patches), GOW3 advetisement at 7-eleven, and now this, Sony is LITERALLY doing everything right in 2010. I'm done defending M$. Sony is just embarrassing them right now. I can't wait to see the mainstream's reaction when they see GOW3 and later figure out that its not on the 360 :)

[SoapShoes]

Horrible investment for MS. $50 million for a timed exclusive? Weak sauce.

[UnSelf]

how long does it take for a new game to drop to about $20? i guess ill pick this up in March 2011

i cant wait!!

[qface64]

i just find it a little funny because a while back people would say its not gonna happen

these rumors about (insert 360 game here) coming to the ps3 usually come true most of the time

anyways i haven't even played gta4 for a long time ill just wait for the next gta game

[rroded]

worth picking this up jus for that imo tho i never finished the sp but i still play online. Its one of the best games to play with a few friends imo. Hope they give us a good deal on it so everyone on me friends list can afford it. Been dying for those new online modes on psn.

n for those who havnt tried it give it a go tons of modes and stuff ta do even without the dlc.

[WildArmed]

gar..
Hmm i think I'll be picking up the PC version of them..
I always love moding/hacking away on GTA games..

On a sidenote:
and another unfortunate incident happens..
My 360 just died on me.. >.> I'd been waiting to pick up mass effect 2 all week long.. and it doesn't matter anymore :(
went to pick up my preoder awhile ago..
i wonder if i can turn my 360 copy in for a PC version? (unfortunately the game is unsealed.... )

[TheHater]

I am expect Mass Effect to be announce for the PS3 within 6 months. I was one of those people that thought this was never coming to the PS3 because MS paid $50 million dollars for it. Honestly WTF. I will not be surprise at any xbox 360 exclusive jumping ship to the PS3 also.

[Fanb0y]

Wow, Microsoft blows. 50 Million invested and they can't keep an exclusive. I guess it's all about the profit, right? Once they're done making their money, ditch it.

[Persistantthug]

I was wondering if you could spare 50 million dollars....

I'd be so grateful. :)

[SilentNegotiator]

I don't even know what MS is thinking anymore.
How can you pay 50 million for a TIMED exclusive?

4 months exclusivity on the second episode. Essentially, $25 million smackers for 4 months of exclusivity?

[Immortal Kaim]

Good news for PS3 only owners.

Guys are can't believe you just blindly follow others assertions that it was $50mil for exclusive content? It was always loan (as described countless times by Take-Two execs), MS lost nothing on the deal, in-fact that took away the risk of millions of ppl flocking to the PS3 to buy GTA, a smart move no?

Anyway, this guy sums up the deal fairly well. I suggest you have a read.
http://blogs.ign.com/MrBeat...

[nix]

HA HA HA HA HA HAH!

GTAIV sucked!!! big time! i didn't even bother to finish the game. and i never will touch it again. has left a bad taste.

i hope Agent and L.A. Noire isn't like the latest GTA.

[badz149]

after all they paid $50m for these DLCs!

[40cal]

Really? Microsoft paid 50 million for timed exclusiveness? Gay Tony came out a few months ago.

Still I have my eyes on R* this year, like Red Dead Redemption will be day one for me and I have high hopes for L.A. Noire and AGENT.

[blue7xx7]

Wow I thought the rumors were fake. MS really is stupid I love my xbox 360 but come on seriously $50 million for a timed exclusive DLC is just dumb with that money they could have made atleast 4 AAA exclusive games or open up new studios like Sony does. But great news for PS3 and PC gamers they should definitely buy these episodes they are the best DLC ever made especially if you loved GTA4.

[Immortal Kaim]

Umm guys, did you not read my post just above. I suggest doing some research before making an ar*e out of yourself...

[ThanatosDMC]

GTA4 on consoles still looks like a unpolished turd compared to the PC version. Also, this expansion is very old. It's sad people are gonna buy this for that price. $9.99 sounds better.

[Pika-pie]

You do know you dont need the original version of the game to play Episodes boxed copy right?

[presto717]

Dont you? Too bad this one isn't anymore.

[Blaze929]

http://psinsider.e-mpire.co...

[TheDeadMetalhead]

I'm glad I only rented the 360 version, then.

[Venatus-Deus]

I read it and it’s basically a blog in IGN of a guy who has pieced together quotes from different sources, used Wiki to understand the definitions of the terminology of the “quotes” used in these sources and then come to a conclusion. The sources are from seekingalpha and 2opgaming. The only good source he used was the NYtimes and that article doesn’t actually back up his claim.

So what you basically have done is call everybody an a**e because you have found a blog that uses the quotes of other blogs to conclude that you are right.

Good work fella!

[pixelsword]

I never bought it myself; they showed incredible graphics only to look marginally better than it's PS2 counterparts in the past *(at least for me) Niko looks like what Bert from Ernie and Bert would look like if he had a surreal twang to him.

people were saying it would come, I think HHG was one of them, but I have no idea if that's accurate in my memory or not.

[vhero]

Should shut those 360 fanboys up for a bit who said this would never come to PS3 now for Mass Effect 2 and we done here.

[zeeshan]

M$ are probably going to be responsible for a new word in dictionary. "Timedclusive"

[m-s-8-2]

I had to force myself to finish the second half of GTA4. After San Andreas it felt like they were going backwards in too many ways. Ill pass.

[Venatus-Deus]

“Timed Exclusive ” is two words and…

“Timedclusive” isn’t going to be in any dictionary. Ever.

:-P

[gaffyh]

http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News...

That rumor was shot down by many people, saying it was wrong. Oh wait, turns out it's true.

[Jinxstar]

I said the same about Ninja Gaiden2 and Fallout 3 DLC and Braid and plenty of others. Whenever MS says exclusive they actually mean timed exclusive.

[andron]

And I'm not surprised to see it's true. Poor fanboys will have a fit (on both sides).

Might pick it up if the price is right, otherwise I can always wait some more for a bargain.

And this really will spur the Mass Effect trilogy rumours no end LOL...

Edit: Funnily it was the subject of my first blog entry: http://www.n4g.com/NewsPend...

[DaTruth]

So 360 fanboys can run around with SDF in their names and shouting SDF from the buildings, but I get deleted.

Gee, guess who's also mad about this news!

Edit: Looks like anything that might be construed as hurtful towards 360 owners is getting deleted; While these dudes run rampant in PS3 only topics!

[mastiffchild]

@immortal Kaim-I also read a few of the sources the guy you linked to used and i'm still not convinced what MS and R* did either way if i'm frank with you.

For a start what do R* get out of this? I doubt they'd have any trouble making the DLC as they normally would without cash from Sony or MS and would not , then, have risked half their potential market having moved on by the time they released it a year late(in the case of TLAD), would they? Why would they take a loan off MS just to pi55 off PS3 gamers? Why? Something's not right here.

That said, I also think 50million for a little timed exclusivity(and remember a lot of 360 gamers felt THEY got the DLC too late anyway!)is unbelievably expensive. I get that MS might well have wanted to assert GTA as a MS platform game to negate the PS history for future releases in the series-something they would be esp keen to do in light of the three game exclusive deal that , I beleve, was brokered between Sony and R* as part of the negotiatons to take the then PS exclusive GTA4 multiplatform(I see three new IP as a fair exchange for a known mega seller like GTA4, and onwards, staying exclusive/going multi for both parties). If Sony were looking like getting a whole lot of R* love(of which the first fruit will be Agent)then MS would surely want to maximise the impact of GTA as a series on their platforms so helping R* out a little is expected-but50million? I cnnot see that!

Most likely the truth lies somewhere between the two extremes I reckon. You have to think what R* were giving up IF they just borrowed the money from MS, don't we? I've never heard them have problems before in funding games and DLC for the biggest series in the universe at that time wouldn't have been difficult to come by at excellent rates for R* that would have maximised their profits by allowing simultaneous release, you understand me? I simply don't see R*getting anything out of a loan deal when it makes their profits look slightly/greatly at risk. They have to pay the 50million back anyway AND, more unbelievably, they had to borrow it at a time when they must have been flush with GTA4 money anyway?!!As I say it makes ZERO sense no matter what certain outlets have been led to think.

Inm it's barest terms I say that R* would NOT risk their PS3 sales for the sake of a loan which amounts to no net gain whatsoever-all it achieves is a net loss in profit from lost sales from bored or annoyed or lapsed PS3 gamers, no? On the other hand I cannot think even MS would spunk that sum just for timed exclusivity-10-15million for the benefit of the series MS future? Certainly a possibility but not 50, not a chance. If I had to gues at what I imagine to be the best possibility I'd go with this: MS offered the 50million for development(which actually, btw, seems a little steep for a pair of DLC where a fair bit was meant to be stuff/ideas cut from the orignal game and for DLC that they had everything, engine and physics wise, in place for anyway)at great terms where R* only pay back, say, 40million or so? That way everyone keeps what they want and Sony don't care as they know it's coming and have their own deal in the bank-however, I just don't imagine for one minute that MS ended up giving R* nothng for timed exclusivity and a loan they could have got anywhere(if they even needed it) isn't nearly enough reason tom lose out on overall profit now, is it?

[rebirthofcaos]

XD too much for the poor month of march, please give some room....

[LtSkittles]

Awesome.
Oh PC too?

[TheIneffableBob]

Lost and Damned achievements were added to the PC version in December, so I'm assuming a PC version will come eventually.

Confirmed:
http://www.joystiq.com/2010...

[LtSkittles]

Yeah, I read that, and then I edited, and put that in my message. Like I said yesterday "YAY!"

[saint_john_paul_ii]

yup PS3/PC.

[life doomer]

so much for xbox 360 2009 line up.

edit: troll police xbox 360 had some games, a racing game and something else i forgot the name of.

[TheHater]

MS paid $50 million for what exactly? For time exclusive on the episodes?

[LtSkittles]

I guess it was just a loan, I wouldn't invest $50 mil, in something that would eventually get to my competition. I would pay a lot, but not 50 mil.

[sofresh200]

Thank you M$!!!!

[Michael-Jackson]

1 down, so how many 360 exclusives were there in 2009? WEAK! Sorry :)

[agent027]

Microsoft has a habit of spending money stupidly.

[Sir_Ken_Kutaragi_]

...is? the? point? of? owning? a? xBox 360??? ;-D

[AliTheBrit19]

To all Droids:

The $50 Million was a loan and had NOTHING to do with the timed exclusivity of Episodes From Liberty City.

And Rockstar paid Microsoft $70 Million Dollars

So by PS3 Fanboy logic, that's $20 Million Microsoft has taken AWAY from Agent development costs, Right? ;)

[Troll_Police]

That's why you don't need an Xbox 360. Their so called "exclusives" almost always end up on the PS3 if it wasn't on PC to begin with. Patiently waiting for Splinter Cell: Conviction on PS3 announcement.

[SnuggleBandit]

Patiently waiting for ME1 and ME2--the only games i really want a 360 for.

[KiRBY3000]

we might add Alan Wake in our list at some point.

on topic, LOL @ Microsoft's "exclusives"

[vhero]

Exactly the biggest games that are 3rd party only (e.g. MS did not have any involvement) will eventually come to Sonys machine as they sell well especially if they are not a shooter they usually sell better on PS3.

[life doomer]

next on our list, mass effect 2.

[TheHater]

Now I will not be surprise if Mass Effect 2 and Splinter Cell is announce for the PS3. After this, nothing is going to really surprise me in regard to an xbox 360 exclusive coming to the Playstation 3.

[ClownBelt]

The funny thing is, it could really happen. These so called "360 exclusives" are jokes..

[swiftshot93]

Mass Effect seems obvious. Every time they're asked if it will come to PS3 all they say is "We've only announced it for 360 and PC." No sh1t. EA published Mass Effect on PC so we know they can do it for PS3. MS has probably made a deal with them to keep it off PS3 until the trilogy is out on 360, then they'll port it over to PS3.

Splinter Cell will be announced for PS3 6-9 months after it comes out on 360.

[ShAkKa]

This is now on my must buy list ;)

[MajesticBeast]

So sony gets an exclusive game and the dlc thank you Microsoft for funding a playstation project aka agent.

[ZombieRollz]

Why? GTA4 sucked so the expansions will too. Plus it's been two years. I'm sure those PS3 fans that actually beat the game turned around and sold it to Gamestop when they were finished.

This was the worst game that has graced my PS3, and also a pivotal experience in which I dare not trust what a reviewer says until I watch videos, read user reviews,

[MajesticBeast]

The hate for gta strong in you young padawan. It wasnt the best gta game but it wasnt bad at all i think a solid 9 nothing more nothing less its nice people can still get it i might buy it.

[badz149]

but people used to play the 'fun' version of previous GTAs and didn't really craving for a grittier, more 'realistic' and 'annoying' GTA like IV is! if you haven't played any GTA before IV, you most probably won't understand but unfortunately GTA series is a popular 1 and a lot of people played it in the past so, a lot of fans are dissapointed with the direction they went with IV. for me personally, it's an 8 or if I'm being generous, 8.5! nothing more!

on topic, I heard the 2 DLCs were kinda good compared to the main game! so, it's $40 just like GoW Collection and I think that's good enough! I don't see why shouldn't anybody buy this because at least these games are more recent than the 2 games in GoW collection! I'm kinda broke at the moment and if I'm picking this up, I'll look for a bargain on eBay. wish me luck!

[ATm32]

good news ..

:)

[Sigh]

1 of my friends has been begging me to get this game. Gonna be fun playing these games online!

[badz149]

you can play this just like any other games out there without the need of GTAIV. cheers

[Sigh]

forgot about that, thanks for the reminder.

[amolang]

Microsoft was really stupid to pay 50 mil just for a timed exclusive. What were they thinking?

[thebudgetgamer]

:) boo-ya

I would like some info on Agent please.

[young juice]

hahah ive never heard that before.

[Ninjamonkey82]

Looks like 50 million down the drain for M$.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

50 million dollars, down the drain. well at least that will pay for a PS3 exclusive, Agent XD XD XD XD

[Enjoi915111]

Don't care for exclusives any more......because i own both systems. glad i don't have to deal with that problem

[ShinFuYux]

I loved it. Best story ever created, that didn't sound cliche (Vice City) nor thrown in there to fill in the gap (GTA3). Also, it wasn't based on some movie (GTA-San Andreas).

But, these DLC, i don't know. It doesn't intrigue me.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

well at least this means, they will patch the game to play a bit better and of course to add the new game modes that appeared in the Multiplayer portion of the 360 version.

[tatotiburon]

lol you fools, do you think that microsoft didn't sell any copy of this two episodes?? LMAO, i can bet that this two episodes sold more than most of the ps3 exclusives. Spent 50m and the profit was big.

[TheHater]

Sony didn't spend anything on this and their profit might be bigger :)

[Britney Spears]

Actually it sold bad,remember the article a few weeks back? they wastd money and ps3 has it too now.

[thebudgetgamer]

i get to play it. i dont care about market forecasts or quarterly dividends, im a gamer not a stock market analyst.

good day.

[Megaton]

There have actually been numerous articles since November about how surprisingly horrible it sold. Not only playing sales, but playing imaginary high sales. Brilliant.

[tatotiburon]

only the lost and the damned sold more than 2m, that's a big hit....hahaha yes rockstar is releasing this game for free, sony didn't spent 50mil but they had to make a deal with rockstar...no one works for free

[thebudgetgamer]

and that deal was you guys wait a little while for gta dlc, and we'll give our next big thing as an exclusive.

[bjornbear]

thats why its coming to PC and PS3:

MS paid R* for DLC under the terms that it would sell.

It didn't.

MS lost $$.

R* got TONS of cash and used it on the DLC and Agent (PS3 exclusive)

And PS3 only owners can now enjoy "timed exclusive DLC" if they wish too =)

[DaTruth]

20 x 2mil = 40 million if the second sold the same, then 80 million - retail and R* cut = hell no profit!!!

[Satan The Gamer]

Thanks for beta testing it bots!

[thebudgetgamer]

Looks like microsoft is a cuckold in this situation.

[Michael-Jackson]

Microsoft spent 50 Million dollars on a loan, NICE! ;-) bu.bu.bu Agent is timed exclusive tooooo!! Sorry bots :( you have on games.

[Darkshader]

First of all, i welcome every good news coming to PS3. Definetly this is a big blow to XBOX fans because they will stop bragging this game ... when it is only a DLC.

Now let's go back to Rockstar. Making PS3 owners pay $39.99 is not a good move when a lot of upcoming AAA ps3 games are coming this march. I'm buying White Knight Chronicles, Yakuza 3 and Final Fantasy XIII, while my brother will purchase Star Ocean International and Battlefield Bad Company 2. There is no room for this old GTAIV DLC.

Rockstar you got your chance to make more money, instead you ruin your credibility with the PS3 owners, second you lost the oppurtunity to make more money, and finally you mess up the release date instead of doing this early like last year. Now i'm not sure if Rockstar will recuperate/regain the money they have spent in converting this DLC to a PS3. Now my suggestion, bundle all the 3 DLC for a price of $20 - 30. Maybe ... just maybe you will entice PS3 owners to puchase your extended game.

[thebudgetgamer]

most xbox fans couldn't care less. now there is a small group of people within the xbox community that will be very angry and who gives a crap what they think.

also forty bucks im in, i always support rockstar north, it business not personal.

[LastDays]

lol

[damnightmare]

Still no Bungie or MetalGearRising

I still wonder why, *cough*

[LtSkittles]

Because it's bad news for them.

[theEnemy]

But no thanks.

I rather buy new exclusive games coming to the PS3 this coming months than a DLC of an OUTDATED Game.

[KILLERAPP]

To play this content, do you need have the original GTA 4?

[LtSkittles]

If you buy it on the PSN, then yes, but if you buy the stand-alone disc then no.

@Below you're welcome.

[KILLERAPP]

Thanks, too many games coming in march so little time...

[jalen247]

$50,000,000 for nothing...
Sorry my 360 brothers but this is funny. LMAO.
What a waste of money.

Its a shame to be honest. I think Microsoft got duped because we all know that that $50 mil went to the development of the PS3 version along with the 360 and PC versions.

[LtSkittles]

Pretty sure it was a loan

http://blogs.ign.com/MrBeat...

[sashimi]

selling old DLC at that price...yeah right i rather buy other games coming out in 2010.

[bjornbear]

is probably more of a Game at 30€ than ODST ever was at 60€ =/

[doa766]

I recently play Halo ODST on a friend's house and it was PATHETIC, it looked like a 2005 game like Doom 3 or Perfect Dark and it last 4 hours

and they're so proud of that franchise, it's just sad (and funny)

[doa766]

360 and MS are just PATHETIC

[doa766]

this is not something well known because when the difference is in favor of the 360 like on Bayonetta there's tons of articles about it, but when the game is better on PS3 there's only casual mentions about it on reviews

SO GET THE TRUTH HERE:

on the 360 the city is virtually deserted compared to the PS3 version, on PS3 it was almost impossible to speed through the streets of the Manhattan stand in without crashing on every corner, on the 360 it's like a racing track, very few cars on the streets and even less people on the sidewalks, that makes it very easy to get away from the cops no matter the wanted level, also the level of detail is noticeable inferior, in particular on random houses and stores that you never go in to

[djfullshred]

Cell processor technology. If a programmer knows what he is doing, they can exploit the cell to have more simultaneous things happening without frame rate suffering.

[DaTruth]

It is not easy to escape the cops in 360 version. The police can pop-in at any second and the draw distances are just shy of the front of your car!

[doa766]

maybe they should just give up and release the 720 already, PS3 needs some real competition

[B-Real206]

I think I read a while back that LA Noire was coming to the 360. Probably will get a lot of disagrees but thats how it is.

link: http://www.totalvideogames....

If your not satisfied by that use google. I really don't care one way or another, I just thought I would point that out......you know..to add fuel to the fire.

Nothing like a good bonfire! :) marshmallows anyone?

[XxPh1l5t3RxX]

It's official, Microsoft spent $50 million on timed exclusivity for dlc. At what point did they consider that to be a smart business decision.

I'm sorry microsoft i love my 360, but my respect for you has hit an all time low :(

[xaviertooth]

lol!!! that's all and welcome bots.

[True_Religion]

MS paid 50 Million USD for exclusivity. Now, that GTA4 is already 2 years old they made a deal with Rockstar, to bring the DLCs to PS3 and PC but to port AGENT to the xbox360, mark my words.

[Bumpmapping]

Mass effect 2 coming to PS3 mark my words :)

[axerated]

about time! say what you want about how it won't sell, or people don't want it anymore, but its a rockstar game, it'l be about 20 quid, and we've been 3itching and hyping about it for 2 years nearly, i cant effing wait personally!

[forcefullpower]

Been wanting to play the lost and the damned as have heard that is pretty much what GTA 4 should have been. Didn't bother finishing GTA 4 as I hated the story.

That is pretty sad that they had to spend 50 Mil on securing one franchise and a couple of DLC tho.

[XxDeathDoctorxX]

bungie or metalgearrising is in bed it was pass their bed time also they are probaly at school right now :-( sad xbots

[NYC_Gamer]

MS paid 50 million for what?

[JP177]

$50 million for DLC beta testing...HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA H

Thank You So Much M$ LOOL

Microsoft=LAME

[Azzer09]

I think that this is awesome news, i'm so happy it's coming to PS3, i will be defiantly be buying this in March!
What the hell are people taking about GTA IV was the best GTA EVER, i love what they did with it, it was so amazing.

[bjornbear]

I'm getting it =)

Thanks MS (for that assload of cash =D)

[dkgshiz]

I find this really funny :) Why would a company invest $50 million for a timed exclusive? Sad.

[Official General]

The so-called "exclusive DLC" did not help MS sell more copies of GTA 4 for the 360 than the PS3. The GTA 4 sold roughly an equal amount of copies on both the PS3 and 360, so the positive effect it could have had on sales of the 360 version was minimal. It did not sell more 360 consoles neither. And the worst part of it is that the general opinion amongst most gamers that are GTA fans is that GTA 4 was a big disappointment, even though it was still a fairly good game to play. To top it all off, the GTA 4 publisher Take-Two recently stated that 360 sales of the exclusive DLC did not sell very well as they would have hoped. So in other words MS spent $50 million and pretty much totally failed in it's prime objective to make GTA 4 the premier game that would lift the 360 to great heights. This just proves that throwing huge amounts of money around is not garaunteed to buy you success or help you achieve your ultimate goals. MS learn a lesson from this and dont be so corrupt and greedy next time. But right now on this subject, MS have achieved TOTAL FAILURE!

On a personal note, I bought GTA 4 for my PS3, because thats the only console I own. I think that GTA 4 is still a brilliant graphical and technical masterpiece with supreme effects and animations. The storyline was very good too. But GTA 4 fell short in many ways and even though it was still a very good game, I felt it deserved an 8 at the most. GTA 4 was a big letdown and disappointment in terms of it's gameplay and content and thats what caused it's downfall in poularity. Almost all of the best fun features from previous titles were missing and the missions and activities were too repetitive with little variety. I still completed it though and lost interest right after. With GTA Vice City and San Andreas I continued to play those games even after completeing the main storyline. With GTA 4, once I was done I simply abandoned it.

I dont know if I'll get this DLC. I might because I still wanna see what the other episodes are like. But this dont take away the fact that Rockstar have left it a lil' too late, even with the 360 crowd. Many PS3 fans are still pissed off with the way they've been treated by Rockstar and many have lost interest in GTA 4. Rockstar's greed and arrogance really might have cost them big time on this. I think they should just release a new GTA title (Vice City I hope), add all the best features missing from previous GTA titles, add new good ones, and just put things right to make it an excellent GTA title that it should be. But I still might check it this DLC later on depending on how I feel at the time.

[AliTheBrit19]

PS3 Gamers :)

Doomed to being forced to wait for their games, while the rest of us enjoy them as soon as they come out.

[NYC_Gamer]

Lols,50 million for timed exclusive dlc

Mass Effect is next

[AliTheBrit19]

^ Except I have all of those and will be getting all of those PS3 titles.

[FreedomPhantom]

This is quite funny i was just arguing about this coming to the PS3 and i knew it would happen. Finally we can shut those xbox fanboys up.

Next up Mass Effect

[aaronisbla]

i guess good things comes to those who wait. Add one more game to this year's line up for ps3. But lets be honest, this has a chance of not doing well since its so late coming out. If it hits march, then the chances of it selling well are even lower.

Bottom line, the ps3 base has grown significantly and can no longer be passed over when it comes to 3rd party exclusives, I'm expecting ME1 and ME2, SC:C to be some of the last major 3rd party exclusives to hit 360. This isnt including the Gears series though

oooo-just in time to not mean a rat's ass anymore, its nice to know though

Too little, too late.....if they where smart, they should of created something totally different for the PS3 for GTAIV and not give out hand-me-downs from the 360.

I was thinking about getting a 360 for this and Forza but now I don't need to bother as I will be able to get this on PS3 and GT5 will be sometime in the future so why bother with 360. All the other 360 games I am bothered about are on PC or PS3 also.
360's are fairly cheap at the moment but no point in getting one now.

I can't believe that TBOGT will release to other platforms so fast!

I almost start to cry since finally - victory, long wait is over, date is set, both DLCs are not longer X360 exclusive!

I love you R*, I'll buy the PC version without hesitate!

I wish R* will do this for the other titles too!

Thanks so much R*!
