GTA 4

Postby xProtocol Rain » Mon Nov 05, 07 6:37 am

Has been pushed back. Know why? Because of the ps3's fucking blu-ray.. I'm almost certain warehouses are stacked full of 360 versions but nooooo... they gotta come out at the same time. apparently it takes a while to make the game compatible with blu ray or whatever. DAMN IT SONY, YOUR FUCKING UP.

Because of oppressive ESRB ratings, Rockstar has to die to save video games from annihilation.

Analyst: PS3 caused GTA IV delay
Posted by adamcs at 15:06. Category: General

Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter believes that Rockstar has delayed the release of Grand Theft Auto IV because it is struggling with development on the PlayStation 3. And since it's likely that Rockstar had an agreement with Sony not to favour one console over the other, it means they can't release one version and delay the other.

"We think it is likely that the Rockstar team had difficulty in building an exceptionally complicated game for the PS3, and failed to recognise how far away from completion the game truly was until recently.

"We think it is also likely that Take-Two had a contractual commitment to Sony that it would not favour competitor Microsoft by launching the Xbox 360 version of GTA IV prior to launching the PS3 version, and believe that any delay of the PS3 version necessitated a delay of the Xbox 360 version."

The game has been delayed until February, March or April of 2008, though hopefully we'll have a more specific date soon.


Please don't confuse rumours with fact.

I'll fight for you.

Don't blame PS3 for your beloved game being pushed back. None of you work for Rockstar, so making wild accusations only attracts flame.

PS3 fails. I work for Rockstar. I OWN Rockstar. So sh'up. But it's not only because of the PS3. It's also because of the xbox. PC > Wii > All

Only one person did, and it was quickly proved a rumour by moi.

Nothing has even been said about the PC version. Wii sucks, novelty bag of shit.
