Do you care about GTA IV DLC ?

After witnessing the reveal of the GTA IV DLC trailer there were mixed reactions.

There has been some negative reactions to GTA IV in general after it's release. Some say it wasn't fun and that it's basically GTA3 dressed up in next gen graphics.

Still it received the game of the year award at the VGA and has sold very well.

I enjoyed the game and it's new darker and more adult take on the sandbox genre. The story was more central this time and they relegated the mayhem more to the online part of the game.

But others turned to Saints Row 2 for their kicks. They really wanted something along the lines of San Andreas. More diversions and crazy fun and mayhem was requested.

R* usually takes their time with developing GTA games, so we probably can't expect GTA V any time soon. We have to turn to the DLC to satisfy our GTA lust. From the trailer it seems we can expect a very different experience from the main story. More rock and roll and less gloom. Playing as a biker will surely be fun.

My last blog was about the 360 DLC maybe not being so "exclusive" after all. And as a follow up on that I present another quote from the Insiders column in the newest PSM3 about this issue. It's presented as printed, with error in DLC title as in the magazine:

"Rockstar have released details of their upcoming DLC for GTAIV, sub-title Lost and Found. OK, we know it's not on the PS3 radar but just in case... <cough> You play as Johnny Klebitz, a member of the Lost biker gang featured in GTAIV and it will show 'a different side of Liberty City' according to Rockstar head-honcho Dan Houser. We'll see what the future holds before dusting down the Xbox."

Let's just hope the Insider isn't just leading us on. But given his persistance I somewhat doubt that. I certainly would love some more GTA on my PS3...

Yes, It gives me a reason to still own it.

PS3 owners shouldn't care. We have inFamous for our next GTA fix. Even if this came out for the PS3 i wouldnt buy it as its too expensive for what should of being available at launch for free on the disc. (yes i know its being developed as we speak)

I honestly think most Xbox and PC owners won't care either, its predicted to sell 200 mil for both episodes, i reckon it will barely hit 50mil for both. Too many new and better games comming out for people to care.

nurdeens6331d ago

wow $50 million dollars on exculusive add-on software. Microsoft rather spend there money on this rather than quality first party games.

Lombax6319d ago

I could care less. Now if they let me get my money back after wasting it on GTA4...

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.

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

Cacabunga7m ago

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

Outside_ofthe_Box1h 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.

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.

Capcom Says Pragmata Sold 1 Million Copies in 2 Days

Pragmata has sold 1 million copies in two days, Capcom has announced.

asad1978h ago

Capcom is the best developer of all time. Consistent hit over many years .

DivineHand1258h ago

I didn't know it came out last Friday, or I would have bought the game. I will try again for this upcoming weekend.

CrimsonWing698h ago

Im really digging it. It reminds me of games from the PS2 era, not visually or how it plays, but like the spirit of it. If you were around for that golden age of gaming, you’ll get what I mean when you play this.

LucasRuinedChildhood7h ago

Have you tried Kanitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess (also Capcom)? That feels like a PS2-era Capcom game.

The_Hooligan6h ago

Agreed! The art style is amazing in that game. I bought it immediately after I played the demo but haven't started it lol

jznrpg1h ago

I want a physical copy of that game sooo bad. It seems like it won’t happen and I may have to use some of my Xmas PS gift cards I always get this winter but I’m still holding out with very little hope.

robtion3h ago

I know what you mean. I think it really feels like Vanquish, with some Dead Space and Binary Domain thrown in. So maybe more PS3 era but yes it is great.

isarai_lee7h ago

The next thing I'm mine when I've had my fill of crimson desert. A nice linear action game to contrast the open ended 😗👌

jznrpg6h ago

CD is so big I’ll play it all year and squeeze shorter games inbetween

jznrpg6h ago

I preordered it long ago. Going to start it later this evening
