EGM interview with Dan Hsu :
"During our chat with Sony's head of game development Phil Harrison earlier today EGM's Dan Hsu asked about whether Sony had any plans to combat the exclusive downloadable content headed to the Xbox 360. Here's what he had to say: "As the head of the [internal Sony] studios it's hard for me to comment on the third party relations, so I don't know the details of that -- we deliberately keep those separate -- but we have a great relationship with Rockstar and we're actually working closely with them on a number of initiatives, so I do know some things that are going on but I'm not able to share those with you now."
What those initiatives are -- whether this could mean the Xbox 360 episodic content is a timed exclusive, or that there is other content headed to PS3, or something else entirely -- remains to be seen. But there you have it, something is in the works."
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."
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.
As we have all been graced by the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's trailer, we're ranking the best and worst GTA trailers to date.
We be getting these posts All week now lads. Someone noticed a number plate ... Someone noticed a billboard... I can see it now
Just go on YouTube and watch one of the many videos dissecting the whole 1minite 30secs worth.
This site supposed to be for news.
These updates on N4G are going to ruin whats rest of this site. Unfortunate since I was one of the first members.. The site shows unsecure when i login as well.
Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.
good for sony. They didn't have to pay $50 million for exclusive content.
I'm hoping for PS3 - PSP conectivity, would go well with the new PSP.
hmm i think there would be some sort of connectivity for gta...i thought you would be able to use your psp as a controller...anyways ms fans dont understand that the episodic would cost money, how else do you think Microsoft is getting their 50 mil back? I do think that the ps3 would also get episodic content but different content. so it would be cool to have different episodes on different consoles.
Get something else who knows.
At the end of the day you can't boast about an exclusive unless you pay for it in this gen, because last gen it was all about the PS2 because of its huge userbase.
Now it has turned around even though Microsoft have paid for the content you musn't forget it costs MONEY to make the content so of course Microsoft are paying for it and then guess what happens...
Microsoft rip off ALL the 360 gamers with a huge overpriced marketpoints for each content...I know its gonna happen cos Microsoft of course want that $50million dollars back some how.
So if they charge $10 per episodic content and with 7million Live gamers thats already $70million dollars!!
Either way, 360 and PS3 are getting the SAME GTA4 whatever is extra i.e. on the 360 version is just added extras and not part of the original story that is on the disc.
It's an exclusive demo for the PS store on the 20th of July i think...
(it would be awesome)
