good to see dev teams singing a different tune this generation beerchug.gif

Q: You and Sony have had an exclusive arrangement with the Grand Theft Auto titles. Are we going to see a similar arrangement on the next generation of consoles?
When we announced that -- back [on] Grand Theft Auto 3 -- Sony was a big, big factor in the business and was a great partner of ours. We have [since] brought that brand to the Xbox and the PC market. It's just a wait-and-see attitude that we take to the market. [We] study the market and see [whether] that exclusive nature is good for the company at that time or if it's something that we might not want to do.

they arent dropping.

who said the next GTA was exclusive? I assumed the 360 would get it later on just like we do now.

Now if the game launches for both systems at the same time, MS just got a huge boost.

Unless MS pays for the exclusivity there is no way rockstar is publishing the next GTA on the X360 before the PS3.. its even more likely they will put out YET ANOTHER game based on the age old GTA3 engine on the PS2 instead of having to invest time and money developing a next gen title.

Which is fine by companies like Volition with Saints Row and all the other GTA clones that have a chance to do it right and score big on the X360s first year or so before PS3 and next gen GTA.

It looks like Rockstar has just realized that bonus bucks for exclusivity rights isn't necessarily a smart business decision all the time.
Especially with a franchise like GTA.


Madden Football has taught them a thing or two....

Could be, i mean , did you see the news article on the front page about some guy from Konami having doubts about Ps3? MGS on Xbox 360? sure...

EDIT: Off Topic, but i was wondering, could some one help me how to make a image i took from a digtal camera into a size, for my Avator? Will Compressing be good enough? I have no idea...

i really dont think the next gen of GTAs will be exclusive, not like they were this gen.

i think if anything it come out on ps3 first and shortly after (with enhancements hopefully) come to the 360 and pc. Im just happy to see companies not jumping the chance to get in bed with sony.

i honestly dont care for the GTA series and only care for the name and recognition it would be on 360 which would equal greater hardware sales

hehe maybe if they use th 360 as a primary dev platform and then port to others they might finally make a GTA that doesn't look like ASS wink.gif ,... (at least they put work into the ports even though they still show they'r ps2 origins) tongue.gif

That "some guy" is the creator of MGS, so if he doubts PS3 then something is wrong with Sony at the moment.
