Danger BE Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 This is now running over on Dutch sites: For Dutch people: http://www.gamer.nl/doc/44420/Gerucht-Micr...-gratis-content For English people: The rumour goes the round that Microsoft action will will undertake to ensure that there for the Xbox 360 improve version of GTA IV then PS3 the version will sell. This would will do them by means of offering for free content for the persons who the game pre-orderen. Microsoft seem have paid more earlier duration for a certain scenario in GTA IV, to make only those vervolgens Xbox 360. Of course this scenario most perfect marketing tool would be gamers to the Xbox 360 draw version. It is obvious that both Sony and Microsoft will will do everything purchasers of GTA to their version, draw since one of the most anticipated titles of 2008 are. What will exactly be done to individual promotion we unfortunately still just as finished must wait.

Kroven Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 So basically they are saying that Microsoft is going to try and obtain rights to exclusive content for pre-orderers of the game, and offer it for free? And that Both Sony and Microsoft will try everything to get gamers to buy GTA4 for their respective gaming consoles? I doubt this is possible at this late of a stage... I could be wrong tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seriouslycrazy Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 My question would be... Why would microsoft pay 50 mil for the exclusive content, but then just give it away? After all, a business is there to make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kroven Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Well, I don't think it's implying that they are just gonna give away "the exclusive content" that microsoft paid for... Rather that there will be MORE exclusive things that Microsoft is trying to obtain for their console, to release to preorder customers for free. I could be wrong though, the translation isn't the best heh heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletproofShooter Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Microsoft is megalomaniacal in the sense that they want to buy out or eliminate any and all competition. It just wants to have a monopoly on everything it would seem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceedot Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Looks like things are heating up now. I doubt it would be for free. Microsoft always pull shifty sh*t. They are never legit with anything they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonrock Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 You're gonna have to pay. Microsoft didn't become a rich company by offering stuff for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
