Rockstar promises big things for PS3 owners in 2010


Recommended Posts

Are you one of the many PlayStation 3 owners that are a little disappointed that you couldn?t play the episodic content for Grand Theft Auto IV? Don?t worry. Rockstar understands your frustration and apparently they have big things in store for PS3 owners in 2010.

While speculation is one of the best things going in the industry, we?re going to assume that either 2010 will be the year PS3 owners finally get their hands on GTA IV?s episodic content or that Rockstar may be announcing another prime exclusive for the PlayStation 3. Most will point their fingers to Grand Theft Auto 5, but we?re hoping for a new property much like The Agent.

If you?re wondering where this info is coming from, well, today, Rockstar published more answers to their fan?s questions on their official blog. This was one of the responses when questioned with content on the PlayStation 3.

The question posed was, ?I was highly anticipating the release of The Ballad Of Gay Tony, but just found out that it is only on the XBox360. I am certain that I am not the first person to ask this, but how come it wasn?t released on the PS3??

Which Rockstar replied, ?We know that it continues to be an often-asked question ? and believe us, we understand the frustration of PS3 owners like yourself who haven?t been able to play any of our most recent releases. All we can say is that we at Rockstar promise to be very good to you with our releases in 2010. Please stay with us and stay tuned!?

We look forward to finding out exactly what this is!

There?s also news on the oft hidden L.A. Noire. The game was originally presumed to be a PlayStation 3 exclusive, but with Rockstar handing Agent to Sony, this game is expected to be for the Xbox 360 and PC also. The question for the past year or so was whether the game actually exists.

A question asked, ?Your latest word on L.A. Noire is that it is coming along ?splendidly? and that we can expect more details very soon, but that was in September. I?ve been anticipating this game for ages now and I was wondering if you can provide any new information or when in fact you?ll publicly provide more information. By the way, is it still on the PS3??

And Rockstar replied: ?There will be something great to see soon ? a proper in-depth look at the game and why it is so ground breaking and innovative, both in terms of the game?s design and the amazing new technology to support it. Expect to see a long-awaited reveal via a big cover story next month.?

It?s about time!

I hope/can't wait to see information on L.A. Noire and Agent in the next couple of months. :D

Obviously going to be a lot of Agent details, and possibly GTA4 DLC making itself available on PSN.

**** the DLC, GTA4 is almost 2 years old.

Bring me Agent, bring me LA Noire, bring me GTA5, bring me Manhunt 3, and put the Midnight Club team back together.

sounds like another interesting year ahead for sony. looking forward to it.

i just hope its not gay tony..

I'd still love to play both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony DLC on PS3.

Not going to happen. Microsoft paid exclusivity for those two. So either it's a new exclusive DLC or a muti-console DLC for GTA4 that will be announced.

I just hope they don't though. Who cares about GTA4 anymore? It's way too late for new DLC. :/ Bring on GTA5!

They paid for TIMED exclusive not all out exclusive so it could well be them two packs :)

GTA 4 still has some good life in it yet, so a multi platform DLC for it would be fine with me

It's my understanding that Microsoft supplied them with 50 million dollars in some form to help with development of the DLC.

Maybe we will get a PS3 exclusive announcement at E3? Maybe it will be something that comes out of left field. Remember the Table Tennis? They could pull something crazy like that.

I thought it was more complex than this, like it was a loan or whatever and they'd have to give MS a certain amount back at some point or whatever. I don't think they got to just take 50 million anyway.

Anyway I'd say they are alluding to DLC. The likely hood of them doing an exclusive game seems slim for me, especially when GTA4 sold pretty evenly on both systems.

While I am expecting Agent info etc., I'm also pretty sure I read that it was a loan that was to be partially paid back in some form.
