Just as exclusive as GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas were to the PS2? Ah... some textual data about what's happening: http://www.gamespot.com/e3/e3story.html?sid=6149698 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schepton Posted May 9, 2006 I did read a rumor in GameInformer saying that Sony lost the GTA exclusivity, and that MS may have it now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

schepton Posted May 9, 2006 12:23: GTA4 on 360, October 17 in US, October 19 in Europe. Has a tattoo for that too. Microsoft and Rockstar will have some kind of exclusive Xbox Live content, more to be announced in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n0wak Posted May 9, 2006 Quote 12:40: Gates says Microsoft's goal is to make "gaming appeal to people of all ages" and expand the market. That's why the majority of games shown were FPS titles Apparently Halo 3 trailer is available on the Live marketplace already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n0wak Posted May 9, 2006 Quote 12:54: I get the official Rockstar Games announcement of Grand Theft Auto IV in my e-mail--it says that the game will be release simultaneously on Xbox 360 and PS3. Moore said it was coming to 360 first. What the...? What the...? indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoccerDude28 Posted May 9, 2006 He said "Available on 360 "from day one" " with exclusive Xbox Live content. He never said (Not available for any other platform on day 1). People will read this sentence, see 360, day 1, and exclusive and think it is an exclusive game. Marketting 101. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had no idea what he said since I couldn't find a free stream anywhere, so I was just going by what other people were interpreting what he said. Seems like a lot of people covering it fell for it, and by proxy, a lot of people reading what they were writing. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miffy495 Posted May 9, 2006 Well, if I'm going to play GTA4 and it's between the $400 360 or the $600 (probably the price offered to us Canucks) PS3, I think the answer is clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cichlisuite Posted May 9, 2006 By the way, don't you think it's a bit weird to announce a release date, when it's still a year and a half away? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OftenK Posted May 9, 2006 n0wak said: That's why the majority of games shown were FPS titles Well, apparently Microsoft's idea of appealing to all ages is catering to the FPS crowd, and giving the kiddies some shitty pinata game to amuse themselves with.

Moosferatu Posted May 10, 2006 wow. I just watched the montage from the presentation. It was basically one long FPS trailer (supposedly different games) interrupted by some crappy sports game clips. The only game that really stood out from the rest was Viva Pinata. I'm going to have to disagree with you, OftenK. I think it looks like it could be entertaining, though not amazing or anything. I think it's rather sick that a bunch of people over at Gamespot were saying that they thought Microsoft won this year. woohoo! Go generic shooters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still don't really know the point of it, or how it'll play, but I think it's cute, and I have no problem with brightly colored paper mache. If anything it'll be a great game to play with my little sister. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miffy495 Posted May 10, 2006 Indeed. I like the cutesy angle Rare has taken over the years. With the exception of PD and Goldeneye, it's all been cartoony fun. Sure, many of my friends laugh at me for playing this stuff (hell, some laugh at MARIO, forgodssake) but I have more fun than them, so fuck 'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jayel Posted May 10, 2006 I have to admit though xbox 360 seems to have the best quality graphics in their demos. And that Pinata game actually makes me want to get an xbox 360. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
