well lets consider a couple of things first. I think it depends on the retailer but let us assume it doesn't. This whole argument is based on, whether consumers will be buying 360's for GTA4 or ps3's for GTA4. 5 extra pounds will not stop anyone from buying a 160 pound plus console. So why all the excitement over such ordinary rumors?

As Rockstar said If you want to have the full experince of GTAIV you should get the 360 version
I know it not that much but still DLC is more important than anything to me

1.3 - I feel a distrubance in the force...
It's as if a thousand Sony fans heads assploded at the same time!
My friend in the UK said PS3 games are normally a little more expensive. Why is this so supprising?
Better call in the SDF reinforcements! This is a travisty!
CORRECT MR PLAYBOY! If you are a GTA fan you actually PLAY the missions you will want the exclusive content. Only people buying the PS3 version are hardcore Sony fans. Everyone else will buy the version with the most content.

1.4 - if and only if this is true then it must be that the cost of blue ray is more than the old crap DVD
and that rockstar wants to get the same amount of profit from the ps3 version as the 360 version!!

The interesting part is that SONY does not give a f**k about this... SONY doesn't need to expend hardcore amounts to sale more multiplat games, when selling SCEE titles like hot bread.

from what i hear the quality of the ps3 version is better due to the fact that all the information in the 360 version is compressed.Thanks blu-ray =D

My main point here is that, I really don't care.
People are gettign GTA IV for whatever system they want. If they think DLC that you ahve to pay for, is worth more than future proofing your entertainment system, then go with it. If you have both consoles, I would actually still go with PS3 version, Sixaxis is going to be used in a special way Houser said.
And £5 is not soemthign I am goign to moan about, especially sice I'll shop fir it in Woolworths or somewhere where the prices are even, and let me tell you it is only Woolworths.
I am getting the PS3 version, and I haven't even pre-ordered, day one purchase instead.

In that case, you concede that the 360 version of the game is in fact more expensive than the PS3 version. Unless, of course, you think that MS will be GIVING the content away.

It's the same reason I don't have a preorder too. Don't really care about DC. Guess we'll have to wait and fi
