Torrence Davis did say something else.

[darkpower]

I don't know WHY I didn't post this before, but here is the answer that Torrence Davis (you know, the Bitbag person that posted those bullet points that everyone keeps referring to) gave to my blog at http://www.n4g.com/up/28515/BlogPostCom-115130.aspx, posted a little over a week ago. In it, I gave my reasons why I questioned the validity of the bullet points. He didn't seem too happy that I had called him on it. Why a relatively obscure blog like mine got him to respond like this is a question I can't answer, but oh well. I'm posting this so we can finally see that his article was idiotic.

 

 

2 - Yes I was at the breakfast

Look at the pics I posted on thebitbag.com. I'm at the far left next to Chris Paladino. There was only like 3 pics with me in them because I was in front of the camera man across from John Schappert. Check Gamerscores blog at http://gamerscoreblog.com/team/archive/200.../21/557641.aspx

 

Now again to clear this up, when I wrote those bullets, they were just bullets. I pointed out things that were said during the breakfast and added my own comments. I bulleted my comments too, which made it confusing. This is why it got out of hand and yes, I was misquoted. Someone posted an article on n4g that said "Microsoft says the content will be as big as GTA VC and SA" That is what I said when commenting about the DLC. During the breakfast, Brian Crecente commented on what everyone heard John Schappert say. He said that the DLC is exclusive to the 360 and then, Brian stopped blogging for a minute and asked, "So wait, does this mean that there won't be any DLC on PS3?" He never got a definitive answer, but I took what I heard and posted it as a bullet. I also posted that PS3 may get the content in a year cuz who really knows what this $50mil deal is all about.

 

I never said the content would be as big as GTA VC/SA but I said it would be like GTA VC/SA in the sense that they will be expansions using the GTAIV engine. They could be smaller towns with new characters and new stories. Again, it's only speculation at this time. The only thing that was actually said by Microsoft was that the DLC was exclusive to the 360.

 

You mention that no other blogs or major sites posted about it. That's because of all the press that was invited, only a few of them actually commented on the breakfast.

 

So there you have it! I don't want to spread false news or rumors. I only post rumors if I think there's some credibility to them. I posted an update to my bullets because it was the shot heard round the net and I wanted to make sure people got the truth. I can get away with speculation because that's all it is. I don't want people thinking my speculation was MS fact.

 

Good day sir!

 

Now, just so people here can see it, here was my answer:

 

 

 

2.1 -

1. You WEREN'T misquoted. Compare the bullet point you made on the Bluffbag article to the one posted here. THEY ARE THE SAME!! The guy posted it might've introduced it wrong, but yeah, your words were taken within context and word for word.

2. Brian Credente was in two separate realities at the same time? Because before you said he got an answer that I could call more than definitive, and now you're saying that he really didn't get one. Which one should I take your word on?

3. Did you NOT see the GamesMaster thing that was posted at MANY message boards (where it contradicted what you pointed out here about ALL DLC being MS exclusive) AND on my Darkpower: The Show on YouTube (where I bring up this blog and SHOW said page)? Or do you not care? Oh, and Sam Houser (who is a reliable source because, well, he IS Rockstar Games, as in, he FOUNDED the damn place), in EGM's April issue, basically called BS on anyone's claim that the 360 would be the only system would get DLC (this is what I would think Mike was mentioning about being punked by Rockstar. I would doubt he'd say that about my blog seeing as how Houser called your, and MS's, bluff and that your two articles are so contrived and so error ridden that I thought I was reading a speech from President Bush).

4. Still nothing about the other points...RROD going down? Not caring about Blu-Ray? Try asking SquareTrade or whoever is posting those BR add on rumors about this.

5. No, no one else had these bullet points because no one were stupid enough to risk their rep on these, that is...

6. ...if we can believe you were there. Three pics of the back of someone's head doesn't really say a whole hell of a lot.

 

So, in closing....you're a craphead.

 

I just want to share this with you because I'm sick of seeing this Bitbag article time after time to prove something when the Editor In Chief himself stumbled over his own words.
