ps3 and DLC

[sidny01 0]

anybody else notice that theres a chance we may get a DLC considering the fact that rockstar could make a different DLC for the ps3. so 360 get the damned thingy and we could possibly get a different DLC maybe in a odd year or so

its possible

[Floro Solo 2]

We will, just later than the 360 owners.

[sidny01 0]

We will, just later than the 360 owners.

proof ? any?

[strojio 0]

what is the DLC gonna be for the 360 anyhoo?

[Nico Bellic 0]

everybody will get the dlc guys ...this is gonna be stupid if only we the 360 users gonna get it and r* are not stupid so everybody will get it ...we all play the same game so no body will get anything different then the up coming dlc maybe the cloths and small stuff like this but not a whole new game or something like that...everybody will get it ...not on the same time but like i sad r* are not stupid they plan something big for everyone im sure i hope so...

[nlitement 11]

Wishful thinking.

 

Yeah, enjoy your "exclusive" Home content, because we enjoy our "exclusive" Dashboard themes as well.

 

No, seriously, it's not like Sony pulled off exclusivity deals before this? Right? There was nothing like that? Right.

I'm not sure if we would be getting the same DLC as 360's but it would be great if we do.

Maybe R* is gonna think about making Ps3's DLC whether it would be different that 360's or not.

Microsoft paid $50 million to ensure that PS3 owners will never get the first two episode packs. Accept it, fanboys, and move on.

 

If there's a third episode pack there's nothing keeping it off PS3 but unless Sony coughs up money for their own exclusive DLC it will be available to both PS3 and Xbox 360 owners. I'd imagine that Microsoft's deal probably includes something that prohibits them from turning around and dealing with Sony.

 

So, this is the reality of the situation:

 

Episode pack #1 (The Lost and Damned) Xbox 360 only. EVER.

Episode pack #2: Xbox 360 only. EVER.

Episode pack #3: nobody knows if there will be a third pack but Microsoft's deal only covers 2. There is no Sony exclusivity deal so it could possibly be on both but again, there's nothing suggesting there will be more than 2.

 

But again, PS3 owners, you're not getting this content, and all the desperate online "wishful thiking" posts in the world aren't going to make up for the $50 million Microsoft paid to deprive you of playing this expansion.

You can't call somebody a fanboy just for expressing how upset there are at not being able to play it. That's just being a fan.

Yeah, M$ bought up the content rights. Still, if it does go to PS3, M$ will be getting the money for it. Them buying the content rights doesn't necessarily make it exclusive, but it does mean its up to them to allow PS3 release, and if so; monies to M$ for PS3 users buying it.

 

 

[GuruAskew 1]

No, it's one thing to be bummed that you can't play it, it's another to become delusional in an attempt at convincing yourself you're gonna be able to get it when every bit of information points to the contrary in a concrete and definitive way. It's still another to then go on a public forum and pass off your delusion as fact.

 

Maybe "fanboy" isn't the right term because I'm sure there are PS3 fanboys who know they aren't going to get it. I guess a fanboy can be aware of the reality of the situation. I don't know what you'd call these people are so spectacularly wrong with nothing to back up their belief but wishful thinking.

We all know there's this $50 million exclusivity deal between Microsoft and Rockstar. It's obvious and apparent that that means this content is EXCLUSIVE. It's those wishful thinkers who should be hopping in their time machines and documenting the crazy and unprecedented miracle that would need to occur for Sony to get something that Microsoft paid $50 and they paid $0 for.

 

 

Yeah, M$ bought up the content rights. Still, if it does go to PS3, M$ will be getting the money for it. Them buying the content rights doesn't necessarily make it exclusive, but it does mean its up to them to allow PS3 release, and if so; monies to M$ for PS3 users buying it.

 

The fact that the word "EXCLUSIVE" has been used to describe this deal in, I dunno, EVERY SINGLE MENTION AND ANNOUNCEMENT THAT HAS EVER BEEN MADE means it's exclusive. It's not just the kind of thing that Microsoft paid $50 million for and Sony is able to change their minds and decide to pay their $50 and get on the DLC bandwagon too. This is an exclusivity deal, this is an agreement that locks this content up at Microsoft. I hope this doesn't get to the point where I need to post the dictionary definition of "exclusive".

 

Again. Microsoft paid Rockstar $50 million for exclusive downloadable content. The whole point of that is to make it so you can't play it on your PS3 and you need an Xbox 360 to play it. Accept it.

Oh my! Is the age of every PS3 fanboy on the internet younger than high school level?

 

This first DLC is launching 10 months after the game, the second exclusive DLC is launching in fall 2009. So 18 months after the game comes out, do you think R* will be pouring development money and time into making DLC for the PS3 instead of working on the next GTA game?

 

I very much doubt it. Besides, if Sony had DLC sorted for this, it'd be either shouted about or leaked. Given the form Sony has had this week of leaking internal memos, if a DLC deal had been inked, the whole world would know about it by now.

Woa i never thought i'd get tired of this im somewat suprised the that pc owners aren't in on this 'frag fest' in the words of batman

'wat don't u carry on that belt?'

patience for sh*t like this.

Anywho thought i add my 10cents

also just to comment in my opinion i don't see sony trying to exclusivefy the 3rd dlc (even though i own a ps3 ) because of the timeframe that gta IV has been out for and i don't think they will see it as a possitive investment, a positive investment would of been making gta4 exclusive to ps3

 

however that wasn't going to happen.

No, thank f*ck for that.

Our only hope is they used the term "exclusive" like the have before... I think 6 months to 1 year is pretty standard for "exclusive" content....

 

GTA San Andrease Exclusive to PS2

 

Probably depends on how well it does for xbox-- if they see enough $$$$ by releasing it for PS3, then it will likely eventually be released-- if it falls on its face, very little upside for it coming out on PS3--

 

IMO -- would be stupid to not port it to PS3-- the hard work would have been done (rendering the city)-- new missions/story in LC would be very simple (for them) to do.

 

in not, Spuds has begun work on his Xbox emulator for PS3 -- I'll be selling copies of this for $19.95

[GuruAskew 1]

 

IMO -- would be stupid to not port it to PS3-- the hard work would have been done (rendering the city)-- new missions/story in LC would be very simple (for them) to do.

 

Not if Sony determined that they stood to make less money by offering DLC on the PS3 than they do by accepting Microsoft's $50 million.

 

If Rockstar estimated that PS3 DLC would make them $40 million and Microsoft offered them $50 million to keep it off the PS3 you can see why it's not stupid to make the exclusivity deal with Microsoft.

 

It's a business and making the content available to PS3 owners isn't necessarily the best business move for Rockstar.

Yeah, where's the goddamn Stories? They're still Sony exclusives.

 

I hope all of you PS3 owners just die a slow and painful death for bothering us by still believing that a FIFTY-f*ckING-MILLION DOLLAR deal is worth less than your whining.

 

Notice that no official representative ever called San Andreas a "PS2 exclusive" and it sure as hell did not involve a legal contract worth thirty times the amount of money you will ever earn in your life.

I made a thread like this and it was explained.

 

MICROSOFT PAID TO HAVE IT MADE, ROCKSTAR DIDN'T HAVE IT IN MIND. And the chances

of Microsoft making the same DLC for the SONY PS3 is slim to none. The only way you'll get

a DLC is if SONY PAYS TO HAVE A DLC MADE.

[The BigSlick 0]

Look im a ps3 owner. Its a very sad, yet simple concept. Microsoft paid $50 million for exclusive content, they get exclusive content. Sony pay sh*t all for content, they get sh*t all. Its a very simple thing. Sad but true, end of. Its exclusive for a reason fellers. Down the line there may be a small chance, but like the other guy said, wishfall thinking never beats the $50 million. Sony played the generation retarded im afraid

[stealthboy50 0]

Well, I can see why sony's doing it, and TBF this is a slight gamble.

Ok, so microsoft pays 50mil to get this GTA lost and damned. Now, sony could pay that much to have another seperate content for them only, but if not, and the effort fails, microsoft is knocked again, and sony is boosted up. And if it succedes, and not just makes a small profit but is something wicked, sony can then give US something in home, or LBP, and they pay nothing, and hopefully it makes up for what they done, untill we are happy. And if not, mabey there will be some new free Stuff on home store, I have heard rumors on ps3 fourms about some new themes coming, but got no idea.

I am assuming this is what sony are thinking, and It is working slightly, i think it makes microsoft look a bit desperate, and DON'T call me a fanboy as TBF i can't care, thats my opinion and thats that.

Lito, wrong, RS are brining out a new mode for all of us i think, so yeah, we not just paying for DLC.

Motor, i doubt you are, and trying to impress the big boys of the fourm. They can work on 2 things at once, or we would not be getting the new Multiplayer mode. So yeah, clever

Yep, Spuds is known for whining-- been doing it for 5 years here

 

It is possible to have a civil discussion even if you disagree with someone, Did you think about what you would probably read by clicking on this thread-- now watch the profanity-- the filter works just fine.

 

I wish you a painless death-- does "smothered by kittens" work for you??

 

If I don't get it, no problem-- I'll just borrow a console to play it-- a friend of my wife's kid has a box-- I'll trade him my PS3 for a month as I would love to play through a new story in LC-- does M$ really think this will boost their sales?? I know lots of people considering consoles--- most are choosing PS3 to avoid the XBL fees.

Nice, so because of one a**hole like that every xbox owner is an a**hole now?

Does that mean that if one PS3 owner is an a**hole, every PS3 owner automaticly becomes one too?

What about an a**hole PC gamer? Or an a**hole Wii player?

Or what if there's an a**hole who happens to be black, or chinese, or swedish...

Does that make all the rest of them a**holes too?

 

Talk about narrow minded...

Xbox owners didn't do anything. PS3 owners just can't get it through there head that the only

way for them to get a DLC is if SONY pays Rockstar to have one made. And since Sony are

cheap f*cking assholes, you won't get sh*t. GO CRY TO SONY, not Rockstar or Microsoft.

[underwaterfarter 0]

PS3 owners will be getting some and I quote " Substantial addon content"..... While it may not be some gay biker story, I expect it to be more missions, car, whores, weapons, interiors, etc , etc for Niko....

 

I do not agree with Micro$hit Shelling out cash to keep dlc away from ps3 users, I do agree that it was a good business move to lure people to buy their sh*tty outdated consoles.
