its nice that this got cleared up

ArduousAndy6860d ago

are not going sony exclusive?

AznSniper6860d ago

well there is still no proof to debunk it unless they contacted them to get it right.....nor do the people in the podcast had any proof that they were going sony exclusive....but we will have to wait and see

marionz6860d ago

i wouldnt care if they did go sony exclusive, its not like they are a great company, so they make gta big deal i never liked that game and dont understand why its so big
i guess americans can understand it better because it depicts their corrupt country perfectly

Galvatron6860d ago

marionz... Name ONE country without some form of corruption. You don't like the series, so you make an off-the-wall comment about an entire population. Give this guy a prize!

marionz6859d ago

its true though america is one of the most corrupt countrys in the world, all your drug dealers guns pimps hoes homeless people living in trees serial killers ghettos and dont get me started on your airports!
your wellfare and hospital systems are rediculous your president is a freakin retard your tv is full of crime and gangsta rap your gun laws are loose as the hoes in a snoop dog video america sucks plain and simple, yet americans are so patriotic its sickening to see they have such loyalty to the most srewed up place on the planet

yes gta is america...america is crap

where i live hospital systems are FREE
we have a female prime minister
we had a transexual mayor
we have clean air beaches at our frount door and people dont walk around with guns and knifes we have verry few homeless people and a wellfare sustem that treats people with respect
we have sivel unions so gay people can get maried and airports that dont treat everyone as a threat

i guess New Zealand wouldnt make a verry fun game

Galvatron6859d ago (Edited 6859d ago )

Yep, I'm a know-it-all American who is right even when he's wrong. I pollute, start wars and kick babies. That's what we're ALL like here...

Don't like GTA? Don't bother. Save the rest of us some board space.

Look at what R* has in the pipeline for PS3. It has L.A. Noire and a brand new IP that's using the Euphoria Engine. Those are some nice exclusives for PS3.

On the other hand, look at how R* treats Microsoft. What does Microsoft gets from R*? Some crappy Table Tennis (which is not made by the real R*) and old recycled Bully (which is not even an exclusive.) The only reason Microsoft is getting two exclusive GTA4 contents is because Microsoft gave $50 mil for it. Even then, Microsoft still got screwed over because R* most likely delayed GTA4 for PS3's sake.

R* clearly shows that they favor Sony over Microsoft. Just look at what they do. They history of behaviors. It's obvious for everyone to see.

takz6860d ago

im sorry normally i wouldnt care to comment but you actually sounded personally hurt by this. u need to understand business is business. rockstar didnt promise to leave sony for microsoft then was caught in bed red handed again. this is no moral crime its business.

i mean capcom a publisher that used to show sony a lot of love has changed its tables i dont see you guys tripping about that. no need to stress xbobx has alot of good games man and besides you guys are getting gta4 isnt that what you wanted aniway. get over yourself

Vertius6860d ago

R* making games for the 360 would make business sense. If R* were to become Sony exclusive, that would signify loyalty, something too many here disregard as archaic...

Captain Tuttle6860d ago

If Rockstar can make more money by going Sony exclusive (newsflash, they can't) they'll go with Sony. If they can make more money by going exclusive with MS (nope) they'll do that. The only loyalty that these companies have is to the bottom line and their shareholders. They don't give a crap about fanboys. They have to sell games to survive.

Vertius6860d ago

You just emphasised my point. Going multiplatform = Business sense, Sony Exclusive = Loyalty. If this goes ahead, it solely signifies loyalty.

Captain Tuttle6860d ago

There's no loyalty in business...only profit.

Vertius6859d ago

If that's your outlook on business, remind me not to go into business with you. A sense of loyalty and trust is paramount to any venture, after all.

I dont trust not a one of them.Gamers creed post alot of BS.CCC I never heard of.And not this clear nothing up

IPlayGames6860d ago (Edited 6860d ago )

i think some games will be exclusive but not all.

If its stated that the reason GTAIV was pushed back because of lack of space on DVD9 then GTA V will be ps3 exclu.

Table Tennis 2 (multi)

Hell Red Dead might even be multi.

But big open world games will be ps3 exclusive.

SlippyMadFrog6860d ago

Just like Oblivion was exclusive ;) Disk space isn't a crippling problem, there are always solutions. Remember that shareholders aren't fanboys, the company is already spending millions developing the game, they want to make as much money as possible from the game and holding a game exclusive to the console with the smallest install base isn't a way of maximising your returns. Shareholders are money fanboys. Freakin money fanboys, they suck!! ;)

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle20d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7720d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde27d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy27d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7728d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga28d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199228d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga27d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac27d ago (Edited 27d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman27d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger27d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box28d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion27d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7228d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7528d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit28d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14928d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7728d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
