It's okay....LOL
I got GOW III covered but there's also FFXIII and Pokemon Soul Silver to keep in mind.
YES!!!! Move over BFCB2
I didn't like Lost & the Damned all that much. Ballad of Gaetano was alright though.

Wait, what?
I'm already trying to sell my 360 disc.
I want these on my PS3 instead
Hehe...
Only took 5 hours for the rumour to turn to confirmation in consecutive news items
Also, I'm never ever ever going to buy a Xbox 360 games if it's not a 1st party exclusive. They're all timed exclusives.

For starters, I'm not going to buy Splinter Cell Conviction anymore ...

Bukkakae
So I bought A 360 to buy a game that was going to come on ps3?? OMFG WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY>>>>>

I know... I'm so pissed off with Rockstar at the moment, I bought this when it first came out, and have just started playing it on 360 and BAM! It's coming to PS3... lame. Looks like I'll be getting rid of my 360 version for this then... god dammit. Thanks Rockstar: you just cost me more money... probably $10-20 but its still dollars I didnt have to spend if they annouced this 2-3 months ago.
Anyone want an xbox cheap?

Mark my words that is never coming to PS3 same with Mass Effect. Just my opinion.

Plus GTA4 looks horrible on PS3. Its far superior on 360.

there hasn't been an update on that site for a while....

Silly silly silly, But I forgive you, I have once owned a 360
Yeah well this isn't one I'm likely to get since IMO GTA4 was the biggest pile of crap to unfortunately touch my PS3.
^
Agreed
I had this title on 360, gay tony was great game lost and damned was boring. And lost and damned graphics were pathetic

byrnezy said: I had this title on 360, gay tony was great game lost and damned was boring. And lost and damned graphics were pathetic


Really? I thought they were meant to be the same as GTAIV?

Maybe they will make it look better on the PS3 this time
Why did they have to release it in March
Oh well, I'll be getting it anywayz

byrnezy said: I had this title on 360, gay tony was great game lost and damned was boring. And lost and damned graphics were pathetic



LOL the graphics in LatD had a film grain effect added which you could have switched off. Both expansions look the same as GTAIV which in turn has a higher resolution and better textures on 360.

To be honest im more happy this is coming to PC.

i have both, and i found at least double the amount of games online for ps3 than pc.
yay f***ing about time
I dont like the way its 2 games, sure i'll still be a heap of fun!
But completing all missions, collecting money ect.. only to start a new game will suck, if only you could take your cash and items to your new game.

Like FF Crisis Core

But it's 2 different stories where you play as a new character in each story. Also the stories intertwine with the GTA IV story so it's like all 3 stories are occurring at the same time in the same city, therefore any money you had earned at the end of GTA IV was Niko's money and since you don't play as Niko in TLaD or TBoGT it wouldn't make any sense to have Niko's money
The GAME store I visited reckons Sony splashed a lot of cash to get Episodes from Liberty City onto PS3.

I don't think so. If Sony wanted to splash cash, they would've splashed at the same time (or before) Microsoft did.

I reckon the timed exclusivity contract with Microsoft had expired, and it was time it went multiplatform, which I'm sure Rockstar always wanted.
2 platinums then? lol

Im getting anyway as gta 4 was a very good game

I hope so to easy platinum trophies thats if they don't include MP trophies

mickyt888 said: 2 platinums then? lol

I reckon it won't.
Even if there is ... good luck with platinuming Ballad of Gay Tony
(Check the achievements to see what I'm talking about)

Oh lol can't be harder then gta 4 right? lol

Wait, what?



LOL - THIS!
the only thing I'm worried about is the multiplayer trophies, I crossing my fingers that there wont be a trophy similar to the wanted trophy.

I've only got 1.2 million left to grind. I hoping to plat this game before the DLC comes out in march.

If the trophies are better than what the achievements were for 360 I could go for playing through it again..

Based on the 360 achievements, I don't think there'll be anymore mult. trophies.

NNNNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ! ! ! !

Word to the mutha.
**** YEEEEAAAA

Have a look dude! Gay Tony has an achievement which requires you to 100% each mission.

There are set requirements per mission like number of headshots, damage taken, time. I seriously can't be bothered.

Second or third mission requires you to get like 20 headshot kills, and also requires you to finish the entire mission within x number of minutes to 100% it.

There's no platinum trophy for TL&D or TBoGT (I don't expect there to be, it's like Burnout Paradise DLC) ... so quite frankly, I can't be bothered with the additional bronze/silver trophies. Maybe 1 or 2 golds as well.

they might get dumbed down like burnout paradise:p
I wonder if GTA ELC on Ps3 will be any different to the 360 version
i sold my old gta4, will i need to buy another copy to run EFLC games. Also mine was a usa edition, so i may as well get another us edition will this this effect me running aussie EFLC?
Cheers
 
Can't wait for this! I almost would have had to go to church if they didn't bring this out for PS3 - Would have been a VERY sinful act and my ticket to heaven may have been revoked for my actions. LOL.
