Again ps3 gets the superior version haha :D

Grand Theft Auto IV episodes.

wxer6049d ago

MS paid 50 million $ for those

Sony paid NOTHING for this

;)

Aquarius6049d ago

peniswagon that comment sounded really pathetic and off topic.

I sense Butthurt.

Lykon6049d ago

stood str8 up in the air, super hard when i saw this news. i loved just cause, im gonna buy a special red jockstrap and red footie socks with shin pads to wear while playing this game on PS3, i dont care about recording video or if under a 100 x magnification an edge is slightly sharper on one console. I love this game, hence the pre cum.

RedDragan6048d ago

Let me tell you about how both companies (Sony and Microsoft) work. It is quite a contrast in sensibility.

Microsoft pay $50M for DLC for GTA4, this deal only includes Downloadble Content, which is not stated in the deal to be exclusive for all time.

Sony pay $33M for Evolution Studios, which is the producer of popular title Franchises Motorstorm, the WRC series and Pursuit Force. When buying Evolution Studios for less than the price Microsoft paid for content they do not own, Sony also bought into Big Big Studios.

Now, you tell us all. Which of these deals is value for money and which will gain which company the most sales?!

deadreckoning6666049d ago (Edited 6049d ago )

OMG, the Bad Company 2 beta, now THIS! This is starting a trend, im SOO happy I have a PS3! We all knew this would happen, in due time, ALL multiplats will be better on the PS3 and have exclusive things on the PS3. Developers are realizing the potential in the PS3 and how to use it to their advantage. Not trying ta hate on the 360, but I thk(with the exception of COD) that it will lose its edge in multiplats very soon.

WildArmed6049d ago

Bloody awesome.
The features that were implemented in 2.30 firmware (i think) with video capture are being used.. awesome :)
Just Cause was a fun sandbox.. and now it looks like JC2 will be a badass sandbox.

skeletonss6049d ago

It's the system not the game. Xbox isn't capeable of that. Or did you not read what it said?

badz1496049d ago

I went to the site and there it is...MW2 background and it's eye sickening!

DaTruth6048d ago

Only reason this hasn't been done before is; "teh multiplat same factor". Devs leaving whole features out of a version because either machine can't support it. If MS didn't mandate and cross game chat in all 360 games they would probably leave it out!

One of the reasons exclusives get so much attention. 3rd party devs will leave anything out if they can, instead of making the most out of everything a system has to offer. We should have 2 versions with five different features in each!

vhero6048d ago

Wow and MS STILL expect you to pay £50 a year for XBOX Live.

Since the ps3 has no good games next year other than god off war 2.5

I guess the least they can do is bribe the game developer and get This exclusives Video capture feature

- Can auto-record/record last 30 seconds of gameplay

- Manual record up to 10 minutes

- Can transfer directly to Youtube

congratulations on the new exclusive ps3 owners

cyborg69716049d ago

Since the 360 is going down faster than a heroin addicted hooker they feel that it was best to jump the boat rather than jump the shark with MS. Ha Ha you see that webb, you should make like your uncle Spud and do a 360 dunk of the xbox. It's time to join the winning team. You don't wanna be a loser do you.

pornflakes6049d ago

hell, the PS3 is the biggest commercial flop this gen! And also the community is around 14 years old, thats why they have so much time on the forums. Their parents bought them a PS3 but now they have no money for the games!

cyborg69716049d ago

Pornflakes is the best you could come up with. Please if your gonna come in here and talk smack about the ps3 taking over the third party devs at least you could do is come up with your own material. Plagiarism shouldn't be tolerated even at the screen name level. And for your information the parents are buying the ps3 for themselves not for their kids. Everyone knows that parents buy the 360 for the kids. Where have you been? I bet you've been concentrating really hard to grow pubes. I'll let you in a fact it takes time.

callahan096049d ago

Mass Effect 2
Splinter Cell Conviction
Alan Wake
Crackdown 2
Halo Reach
Fable 3

MAG
ModNation Racers
White Knight Chronicles
God of War 3
Gran Turismo 5
Heavy Rain
Atelier Rorona

Plus multiplatform games (including Final Fantasy XIII)

Can't we just agree that both consoles have a ton of good games coming next year?

ajkla926049d ago

No, the 360's library is horrible.

2.5 lol...
get your eyes check hahahaha...
deep inside your jealous hahahahahahahaahahahah and you know it hahahahahaah!!!!!

Roper3166049d ago

the stuff they had to leave out of the 360 version thanks to the dvd9 format most likely.

cliffbo6049d ago

nope. it's because every PS3 has a HDD as standard

randomwiz6049d ago

no, its because Sony provides tools to do this stuff. Most companies aren't brave enough to take advantage of these tools, because they are either:
1. scared of getting slammed by 1 console only owners
2. They are inefficiently using the hardware so they can't use these tools.

GiantEnemyCrab6049d ago

FFS at least read the article before you make a stupid comment about DVD9.

Karum6048d ago

Yeah the media format has nothing to do with this.

It's probably got more to do with the PS3 having a HDD as standard in every console but then again I'm sure they could have enabled some of those features if it detected a HDD in the 360 it was being played on...or maybe it does have something to do with the dev tools available like someone else mentioned....maybe a combo of all these things.

DaTruth6048d ago

I only buy one multiplat a year, and this year I choose you JC2! I'm glad this game decided to do this, because I chose this awhile ago.

You just need one special mechanic, nobody else has done and you get my money. With the creative possibilities in video gaming, there is no excuse for lack of creativity!

The Worst Guns in Video Games

These are the worst guns in video games. Unlike weapons that are useful and practical, these only take up space in your inventory.

Worst Games to 100% Complete

Being a completionist can be fun, but some games are more like chores than fun. Here are the worst games to 100% complete.

The Yakuza Games

Haha, yeah, currently over 100 hours into Yakuza 0. Considering going for 100% and well on the way but may not get there. Cat Fights are a real chore.

blackblades1253d ago

I use to be a trophy hunter, was getting around 20 to 30 platinums a year. Had a saying of Play-Beat-Platinum, play and enjoy the game like there wasn't no trophies, beat it and at least get 50% then look at them and see if I'll platinum and platinum it. I think death star was a pain, the servers was ending so i had to rush and play that for awhile none stop. NGs2 was hard because of that online trophy but easy if you had the partner that can do it for you while you grab the enemy attention. Grinding idk, death was grinding last one I had to grind for platinum literally 1 trophy needed was dungeon travler or something vita gave up on it. After that I stop trophy hunting get like a 1 platinum a year or 0.

Knushwood Butt1252d ago

Yeah, if I enjoy a game I usually go for the platinum unless there are some unreasonable trophies in there.

For Yakuza 0 I've invested too much time in it to give up just yet and most of the content is good fun, apart from Cat Fighting which is broken and dull after a couple of fights.

DarXyde1252d ago

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 was literally the last platinum I got on PS3. After that, I went into PS4 kinda deflated and getting them where it felt appropriate.

I genuinely HATED that platinum, but it was a personal challenge I took upon myself. It was a lot of "get 1,000 kills with [insert weapon]" and it got to be a bit tedious. Master Ninja really pissed me off, but the WORST which you alluded to was that bloody Gold trophy for missions that you needed to do online because the AI was useless and got wrecked in moments. I jumped on the game a bit late so I struggled with finding a partner for at least 1.5 months. After that, I burned out hard with trophy hunting. I still came back for games I really enjoyed (Bloodborne, Dark Souls III, Nier: Automata, and a few others that escape me) and low hanging fruit that was just a bit time consuming and I didn't want to buy new games at the time (Final Fantasy XV). Total, it becomes clear where I taper off since I've only plat'ed 33 games since there inception of trophies which really isn't much.

Screw Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 lol. That game was pure nightmare fuel.

blackblades1252d ago

I say never force getting a platinum, its not worth the trouble definitely if it costing you to waste time on chore like grind. Those brainless design trophies.

hotnickles1252d ago

Dead rising was the worst one I’ve ever tried. I haven’t tried it with the modern console “rest mode” but the 360 didn’t have that.

Duke191252d ago (Edited 1252d ago )

Was GTa4 the on where you had to collect a shit ton of pigeons around the map and there was no help in finding them?

roadkillers1252d ago

Yep. I’d say GTASA was more difficult since there were so many collectibles

Profchaos1251d ago

The saving grace was that there was only on average 50 collectables with the two exceptions being graffiti and oysters from memory horseshoes and photos were capped at 50 each.

But for me it was all the other grind that was way more painful in SA like the car export lists which even with guides took way longer than collecting stuff

iivGHOST1251d ago

There was a guide book that came out with the game that had all the pigeons in it. I actually still have it

Chocoburger1252d ago

One of the more recent games I got a Platinum in was Killzone: Mercenary for Vita. What a crap game, that requires so much terrible grinding.

Awful game, awful experience.

outsider16241251d ago

Oh man..wish i could get a vita. I've been trying to get a preowned too(in my country) but no luck.

CantThinkOfAUsername1252d ago

I can vouch for Just Cause 2. It was the reason I quit achievement hunting. 86 hours in, the game bugged on me during one of the last side quests (it failed no matter what I did) and my save file got corrupted. Wiped it off my drive and never looked back.

SonyStyled1252d ago

I downloaded the ‘complete edition’ or whatever it was called for $2 about 7yrs ago in hopes of trophy hunting it for a platinum. It always sounded fun and I would like to commit time to it but not enough for a platinum trophy
