Later on the PS3 will get exclusive content of some sort, but not until maybe a year or so after the 360.
You don't know that, stop saying it, it's not a fact, it's not proven, you don't know.
Is it likely? Maybe, but we don't know so stop saying the PS3 will get exclusive content.
I could say it as much as I f*ucking want as long as it isn't spamming so stop trying to act like a dictator. You need to calm yourself down, get some damn water or some shit.
I'm not pulling this out of my ass; it's one of many partnership business-marketing plans out there. I've been in marketing classes for the past 3 years. I know what I'm talking about.What you think you know aside, have you actually polled 360 and PS3 users on what they like? Have you actually gotten data about the trends of players who are fans of the two games? Do you actually know exactly how many owners of each console will buy GTA4? No. No you don't. So, for now, shut the gently caress up k thx bye.
I was simply contemplating the possiblities, which was acknowledged by me saying "Would if". Pay attention.
I don't know about you, but I'm simply debating this. So lets not turn this into a "Flame War" or whatever.

Playing scarface: the world is yours on the PS2, its pretty good especially the soundtrack
Awww yeah! That soundtrack is kick ass.

-Killing Zone - "All My Life"
-Kazy - "Choke"
-Bif Naked - "All I Want"
-Britt Black - "Night Time"
-Ministry - "Senor Peligro
-Rob Zombie - "Let It All Bleed Out"
AWESOME SOUNDTRACK!!!

Doubtful. This is because Sony's gaming division has lost so much money since 2005, I doubt they have the cash to compete with Microsoft if there were an exclusivity war. Besides, Rockstar has said in the past that they want to have the audience of both systems, and that releasing a game on only one is a huge risk. But the exclusive content is another story. This was announced so long ago, and if you didn't buy a 360, it's your fault.
Sorry buddy, but having downloadable content on just one console is still a risk...not as large of a risk if they were to have the Grand Theft Auto series exclusive to one console, but a risk nonetheless.
SIDE NOTE: I'm not trying to start anything with you or anyone else about this whole thing. I'm simply debating your views, much like you've been debating mine.
No hard feelings...at least on this side.

I did understand what you were saying. You said that almost every PS3 owner will buy GTA4, because there is no game being released at a similar time that they would want instead. And that only 25% of Xbox 360 owners will buy GTA4 because the rest want Halo 3 instead. No. You're acting retarded and using every method you can to make the Xbox 360, its players, and Rockstar look bad, when in reality, you're just upset because you bought the more expensive console, when ironically, the cheaper one will have more features in GTA4.
:lol: BTW I really hope you're not insulting me. Because that would be verrrry baaaad.
I would personally be very impressed to see a mentally challenged person correctly use percentages.
I would like to know why you think that I want to make Rockstar look bad. I don't really give a shit about the 360 or its owners. I AM upset that the PS3's chances of getting downloadable content for GTAIV are very very slim...I mean, who wouldn't. I'm simply pointing out that there is still a possibility.
I said...
Having exclusive content on just one console is a bad marketing plan on Rockstar's part and they know that.And by that I wasn't saying Rockstar is stupid because of what they're doing. I'm simply saying they're not doing that and that they're just helping out a business partner, that what Chris pointed out paid them $50,000,000 to do. Rockstar and Microsoft made a deal so that the 360 would get the exclusive content first and for a certain amount of time before the PS3 would be able to get it so more people would buy the XBox 360. Later on the PS3 will get exclusive content of some sort, but not until maybe a year or so after the 360. Much like what happened with the Grand Theft Auto III Trilogy, PlayStation got it before Xbox did.

I just finished playing "The Sims" for the PS2. I never beat that one because blue disk never worked on my PS2, only for the first few times I played them. So now I'm planning on finally beating it on my PS3.

Leones might be in it although Salvatore died in 2001. I would expect another Don if there is a Leone crime family
I'd assume it'd be Joey.
yup, probably joey, but there's another possibility, joey is too young, i think it might be Tony Cipriani
it's just a guess though, so don't get your hopes too high
maybe after Salvatore had been assasinated, his uncle(LCS ending) take over the bussiness in LC, don't you think?
Sal's uncle seemed really old in 98' and he's most likely dead by now. I don't see why Joey wouldn't be able to take over the family business because he's "too young", but there is a possiblity of a new character that'll be introduced as the new Don of the Leones. Maybe a relative from the "old country".

1. Blu-Ray is more or less useless at the moment, it's too expensive and people are still rolling with DVD.
2. You don't know anything about that in the second paragraph you posted, usually people who are fans of both series of games (like me) will get both. All you're trying to do is make it look like Rockstar is foolish for favoring a console with a larger audience. Go on Xbox Live (oh wait sorry) and you'll hear nothing but praise for GTA, and I'm sure that people who can spend $400 on a console, plus $60 annually for online service can shell out $120 for GTA4 and Halo 3.
Stop putting the 360 down, just because the PS3 doesn't get exclusive content because not enough people bought it because it's an expensively useless piece of garbage, doesn't mean you should make fun of the 360.
Seriously dude, don't use made-up facts and what you think 360 users will do. The fact is that the better-selling console of the two threw Rockstar a bone and Rockstar picked up on it, it's only logical.
Hell, it's the same shit for Windows and OS X games, if you were a developer would you develop for Windows or OS X? Of course you would develop for Windows because so many people use it, so you have a much bigger audience to buy your game. Same situation here.
1. Blu-Ray will most likely take out DVDs just like DVDs did videos. So putting Blu-Ray in the PS3 was just one way Sony thought ahead.
2. You obviously didn't understand what I was saying, so maybe I'll use smaller words or rephrase things next time so people like you could understand.
3. I could give any kind of opinion I want about the Shitbox 360. If you don't like it, don't read my post.

Well with the PlayStation 3 you only have to pay for games and everything else is for free.
-
You don't know that.
Its clearly obvious, what R* will do. You seen it in the past. "Exclusive" is what the say and later on Its announced Its coming to Xbox. GTA SA was an example, Microsoft does not own R*.and R* can change its mind anytime they want. They want all GTA fans to get what they deserve on every console. Not miss something out because of the console they own.
That's because the Sony->Rockstar exclusivity deal was originally scheduled to end in October 2004 but instead ended a year earlier. But it was still released on PS2 first and then ported to Xbox months later.
Rockstar put LCS and VCS on PS2 because the PSP sales weren't as high as they had hoped, so they were able to make their money back by porting them to PS2.
Besides Xbox 360 outsells PS3 heavily. I mean, I can see the Wii catching up to the 360. But the PS3? Only 3,000,000 sales isn't good, especially when compared to the less-powerful 360 and Wii.
If I was a developer, I'd develop for the 360 or the Wii, or both, but not PS3. Why? Not a big enough audience to justify the development.
The PS3 was a waste of money to begin with, and this news is the nail in the coffin. Who knows? Maybe Rockstar will release the expansions later on for PS3. But by the time that happens, everyone will have already gotten a 360 for the then-exclusive content.
Sony had the best brand for games, but they didn't put enough emphasis on what people want (GTA) and they also put blu-ray (useless) in every console. With a price tag like the PS3s, of course it's going to be outsold by a machine that
1. Has the same/better games
2. Is cheaper
I find the PS3 a bargain. We're getting tons of free things that 360 owners will most likely never get and the PS3 has things such as Blu-Ray that right now cost a lot to get by its self.
You're obviously not good with marketing at all. You're saying 3,000,000 PS3's were sold. Microsoft sold 11,000,000. Well would if 95% of PS3 owners were GTA fans and are planning on purchasing GTAIV where as only 75% of 360 owners were GTA fans, BUT 50% of the 360 owners that are GTA fans would rather get Halo 3, which is by far the heaviest competition for GTAIV. That would mean only 25% of 360 owners, 2,750,000 people, would buy GTAIV for the 360 where as 2,850,000 PS3 owners would by GTAIV for the PS3. This shows that what Rockstar is doing is a large marketing risk.
This here is actually one of many elements that show that doing this is bad for Rockstar Games and I know they're smarter than that.

I want to record the audio waves from Windows Media Player for a video I'm making, but fraps can't record it and I'm just wondering if anyone knows what I could use to record this.
Here's a screen of it for those of you that don't understand what I want to record.

Exactly, and if Rockstar pulls from their deal with Microsoft and Microsoft sues, I doubt Microsoft will get any Grand Theft Auto games or even Rockstar video games again. Some of you guys think Microsoft has Rockstar Games by the balls, but in reality its the other way around.
Having exclusive content on just one consol is a bad marketing plan on Rockstar's part and they know that. The deal they made with Microsoft is to make it seem like the content is only for the 360, so that Microsoft could sell some more consols and later on the PS3 will recieve content as well so Rockstar doesn't lose profit.
This is a marketing plan that has been used many times before, not just with video games. You guys have to see that.
-
I'm wondering if the Leones will show up. They were a big part of the series, so I don't know why they'd get rid of them.
-
I couldn't work out what he meant either. Way to fail emphasis.
OGTAM, I don't think you can just read the sentence differently to then assume that the PS3 will get some at a later date. What you're doing there is taking the quote out of context from GI.biz's article.
For now, everyone just has to accept the fact that the 360 is the only console getting additional content. If the PS3 is getting some then it will be announced to us a later date, for now it doesn't have any though.
I'm simply pointing out that it says "exclusively released". If it said " that the episodic content planned for Grand Theft Auto IV will be exclusively for the Xbox 360.", THEN I would say "Yes, it's only for the 360."
I'm just saying, Rockstar said that both Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories were going to be exclusively to the PSP, but then they were put onto the PS2. I wouldn't doubt it if both LCS and VCS go to the XBox as well in the future and along with that, I feel that exclusive content for the PS3 version of GTAIV will be released, but not for a little while after it is for the 360. THAT'S MY OPINION! So don't tell me what to think.

Speculation on this subject began back in September 2006 when Microsoft first announced that the Xbox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto IV would receive episodic content. Recently, in the past week, many gaming sites have picked up on this again, after Take-Two released their financial results for the second quarter. The press release simply stated that episodic content would arrive on the Xbox 360 sometime during 2008, with no mention of the PS3.
Today, a Take-Two spokesperson has confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that the episodic content planned for Grand Theft Auto IV will be exclusively released for the Xbox 360.
a company representative has told GI.biz, "The Grand Theft Auto IV episodic content is exclusive to Xbox 360."This comes as yet another huge blow to the PlayStation 3, which is doing appallingly compared to its rivals, the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

I usually get the WWE video games for the PlayStation for Christmas. I didn't get Smackdown vs. Raw 2007, so I hope I don't get lost trying to play this new one.
Nice topic by the way.

What games and accserriors do u guys recmennded for ps3 i have ms
I'd say either a mic or the PlayStation Eye when it comes out...or both.
Also, if you want to transfer any PSOne or PS2 game files onto your PS3, you'll want to get a Memory Card Adapter.

I don't know how to explain it more. But the slow mo video you posted, once the slow-mo ends you can see a little change.
The slow motion in the bottom GIF image I have ends before the door is even closed. It's probably just the change in speed that makes it look like the camera is being changed.
-
Write after he closes the door you see a quick change. You barely can see it. They did hide it pretty good.
Could you point out something significant, because I can't tell a change at all.

My PSN account says I'm 18, so I can join. But I'm not sure If I'll have time to participate in every game, but I'll register.
The same Tournament Halo2 is having as well.
Shit, I can't remember if I put that I was 18. I usually do for these sort of things.

A small glitch happens after he closes the door and before the car exolodes, thats when they played the car explosion, i don't care if you don't believe me, its true, heres proof

I have no doubt that it was a "stunt", I'm not arguing with you about that. I just want to know how it was done. It's sorta like, I'll believe it when I see it.
Well ECW is on, so I'll talk later.
EDIT: They had a moment of silence for Vince and the fans kept booing every time the bell went off. I mean, would if he really did die...how frolicking(word filter) disrespectfull.

There is going to be an online Resistance tournament soon if anyone here is interested. I don't know really any of the rules because once I saw that you had to be 18 years old I stopped looking at it, but if you guys want to take a look at it...have fun.
-
Right when you see the door about to close, you can barely see a change of tape.
What do you mean "barely"? Please point out where you see a change in tape.

I want to get a headset so I could use it with Resistance and PlayStation Home when it comes out.
Speaking of Resistance, I was going to register for that tournament but then I thought about how if they caught me that I might get kicked off of the PlayStation Network...which would suck because I want to play PlayStation Home really bad. So I didn't register.
Aww man, I can't wait for PlayStation Home...It's gonna be kick ass. I'm so glad my friend didn't talk me into getting an XBox 360 because they suck compared to the PlayStation 3.
