Most overrated game ever

And it didnt take that long to get bored with it either.

The complete failure of the story after leaving Broker, combined with a lack of things to do and see once you've taken in the shows and watched the TV, add up to a game thats crying out for something extra.

If the expansion is over £15 though, it can piss right off.

I would be pretty embarrassed if I were a 360 owner that got fooled by Microsoft into buying the 360 version, based on the broken DLC promises. Still I suppose it worked for Microsoft so they must be laughing at gamers expense, they managed to get 45% of the sales, compared to the PS3 version (good considering GTA is traditionally a Playstation franchise).

Only on XBox?

Disenfranchising the PC gamer market, eh?

We won't like that at all.

xbox only?

How come? Considering the main reason I bought my PS3 was for a) GTA IV (and then b) Blu Ray), this'd be a bit of a bastard if the new stuff wasn't available for me.

PC/PS3?

I'd assume that this will appear on the PC for free someday (ala Mass Effect).

So when will it hit the PS3 store?

Just curious.

RE: Only on XBox? - xbox only?

The small matter of $50m from Microsoft to Rockstar, that's why.

re: PS3 DLC coming too

but that was said 6 months ago

plenty of time to M$ to throw more fistfulls of money at RockStar to get them to drop plans of PS3 DLC

i suspect what is likely is that the xbox will get the DLC exclusively for a few months and then it'll be available for PS3 and PC

i don't care - as someone who is buying a DS this xmas just to play the GTA game on it, if i have to i'll get a 2nd hand xbox from ebay so i can play the DLC

I am so tired of GTA.....

I would love to see GTA come out first for the pc for once.

I am sick of seeing GTA on store shelves and I am unable to play it.

@Anonymous Coward (AKA MARK) "PS3 DLC coming too."

"PROBABLY" Its one way of some bloke from Sony frantically making up for the PS3's loss. You're obviously gutted mate!
