mrgeorgeallison Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Would people here recommend I pay in the region of £250 to get an XBox 360, GTA 4 and its DLC and 1 year on Xbox Live. I have a PS3 only at the moment... just wondering if people think it's worth getting an XBox?

Ryder 556 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 like simon siad, in somewhat broken english, wait. EFLC will be coming to the PS3 in a few months. I say it's announced at the Spike TV Game Awards in December. Like the debut trailer for TLaD was shown there last year. And released in February or January.

Lee Everett Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I wouldn't call it a good idea to buy a sysytem just for 1 game. This game is pretty awesome but don't spend your money on a whole new console for a $20 downloadable content. Now, if you want to have a great online play, great games, Netflix, and pretty much a great experience then go ahead and buy it . But if your planning to buy an XBox 360 just for this game, then don't do it.

Rockstar has now come out and voiced their response to the news that GTA IV: Lost and the Damned may be in fact coming to the PlayStation 3 and is playable at Gamescom. This comes after a moderator at the European PlayStation forums appeared to mention the existence of the game at the convention in Germany. Speaking to VG247, a representative from the developer had this outright denial of the claim: The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony are both exclusive to Xbox 360. That is of course what they have always stuck by since the beginning, but it doesn’t explain why a Sony representative appears to say otherwise. This story is certainly not over yet, so we will be keeping our eyes open for any further developments. If the episodes were to make their way to the PlayStation 3, it would be an embarrassment for Microsoft who have for a long time hyped up the episodes as an important part of their Xbox 360 library. http://www.ps3attitude.com/new/2009/08/roc...isodes-for-ps3/ Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/430291-should-i-buy-an-xbox360-to-play-this/#findComment-1059600186 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R* denied it was playable at gamescom but did they deny it ever coming to the PS3? No. They stuck by their "The DLC is exclusive to the 360" comment and that's all they said. Also they denied it was playable yet they said nothing about it being there to be showed to a few select individuals(Yaster was possibly one of them) Yaster is an awesome guy and I doubt he would lie about something that big. Remember when that ND guy confirmed CGVC coming to the PS3 in the next firmware update? Well yesterday it was confirmed that it wouldn't reach the PS3 until 2010(confirmed by Jim(his account name), owner of Gaf or something) and the other day it was confirmed that the DLC was a timed exclusive by Cousin Ed(I hope he hosts one of the radio stations in GTA NeXt. He was much better then Lazlow on V-Rock) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/430291-should-i-buy-an-xbox360-to-play-this/#findComment-1059601334 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that I don't think it's wise to buy a console just for 1 game. I bought a DS just for CTW, but I've only bought 2 games since. Unless you're interesting in other 360 games aswell I wouldn't do it.

radioman Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Would people here recommend I pay in the region of £250 to get an XBox 360, GTA 4 and its DLC and 1 year on Xbox Live. I have a PS3 only at the moment... just wondering if people think it's worth getting an XBox? You don't need IV to play The Lost and Damned OR the Ballad of Gay Tony, you also don't need Xbox live membership points, If you get the Episodes from Liberty City disc, you can play without owning a copy of IV-I have the Episodes disc, and do not need the IV disc to play either TLAD or TBOGT. Besides, evidently X-Box 360 does not work with Cable Internet connections, as it will not recognize my internet router-even though the PS3 does.? The X-box 360 is $100 cheaper than the PS3(the PS3 is $299, and the X-box 360 is $199), so the X-box is cheaper. Hope this helps. Whether to buy one or not, depends on how much you plan on using it, if you don't play games on console that much, you should not get one, but if you do play on consoles a lot, you should.
