gta 4 possibly delayed :(



yup it seems they may be delaying the launch date to maximise sales by launching 3 weeks after halo 3. they may release the collectors edition on the 17th of october increase the number of sales for that then release the standard version 3 weeks after

bit crap but you can understand them doing it really

You do realise that these two are going to be kidnapped and held in my barn for questioning. If need be Alan shall be brought in to pump some information out of them. ;)
 
its a company thing more than anything to try and get them some money back aparantly also there is talk of them closing studios to save money
 
no problem, everyone buys the collectors edition

Thats what I was thinking. Its not like its going to be £500. Collectors will probably be £50 and normal £40.

£10 extra for a game that I will play for hours and hours isnt really a great concern to me. Big fans will buy the expensive edition and then the people who arent as bothered will buy the normal one a few weeks later!
 
I don't see why ps3 owners should have be inconvienced just cos of feckin halo.
they may be swapping dates to maximise their takings so dont want to go up along side what maybe the biggest game release this decade in europe and the usa its makes sence for them not to compeat its just like film releases

and anyway you miss the extra content if you get it on the ps3 ;)

why not release it the week before halo then, wouldn't be a problem then.

And i'm sure the PS3 will get extra content like the xbox, its just it will be different so both will infact be 'exclusive'

what i have so far managed to find is the extra content is 20+ hours of episodic content ie a s**t load new missions tbh i wouldnt be supprised if the ps3 didnt get anything like that at all because ms paid alot to get the exclusive content from rockstar i await to be proved wrong tho

Given Rockstars relationship with Sony, I'm pretty damn sure PS3 owners will get the same amount of extras, with that said it's not like GTA games are 'short' anyway. I seem to spend 50% of my time on GTA just messing around in planes and forgetting there's actually missions.

lol!

3 weeks after Halo3 is 4 weeks too late imo.

I certainly won't be buying any games for the rest of 2007 (and I know of others who are in the same mind). What are they thinking ?

i hope they do but we cant see whats been written into contracts regarding exclusivity etc anyway sony had a monopoly on gta saying it had to come out first on ps2 by x number of months so there is no reason why ms cant have written something similar into the contracts
