*UPDATE* PS3 version of GTA IV missing in Rockstar Games' website

Posted Mar 28, 2007 at 2:42AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: PS3, Xbox 360 Tags: Microsoft, playstation 3 updates, Take-Two Interactive
Ó

There have been several rumors in the past about Microsoft Corporation's "plans" to acquire Take-Two Interactive. These talks began after reports that the said publisher is having financial problems. On the other hand, Microsoft commented that it doesn't want to buy independent publishers because it would result in a massive revenue loss for MS.

We're not saying anything here, but we found an interesting bit over at Rockstar Games' official support page. The support page, for the curious bunch out there, is where the developer provides its community with patches, video game tips, warranty info, and whatnot. Now, there's a section of the said page dedicated to all of Rockstar's titles for specific help.

Everything is listed there - from The Warriors, Manhunt, Red Dead Revolver, and of course, the Grand Theft Auto series. Each title is further broken down to its platform of origin. To our amazement, GTA IV for Xbox 360 is listed but the PlayStation 3 (PS3) section is missing. We even took a snapshot of the image for you to see.

It could have been a slip up, it could be a clue. We're not really certain. We are just reporting what we saw. Care to give us your two cents' worth?


UPDATE: We headed back to Rockstar Games' official support page and found out that the above mentioned instance has already been fixed. It is now clear that what just transpired was a glitch or a bug on Rockstar's site. Good thing the developer noticed the same immediately as we don't want that to cause any confusion.

QJ you are a *****ing joke. You are *****ing DESPERATE for *****ing news. And this is *****ty ass news, and if you took 2 seconds to look on the GTA IV website or if you had any common sense, this would have never been even listed in the news section of my google. Shape up, because you're *****ing horrible.

I actually think my heart stopped beating there for a minute. Such a scare. Having Grand Theft Auto games but not making them for Playstation consoles would blow fat *****.

not 'i'm sure this is a mistake but...'. no qj decided to colour it like this:



we all know microsoft are taking sony's exclusives left right and centre, we know that ms are buying take-two, and so it's no surprise to us to see that they've definately cancelled the ps3 version of gta4, here's the proof.





some of us are getting tired of anti-ps3 propaganda being plastered all over the interweb, especially in forums dedicated to ps3 news... any chance qj could take off their x360 cap and put on a neutral one?

# IyaGuest 2007-03-29 01:52
no mate its on 7 and it makes you change disks at high speed chases and everytime you want to save



then crashes because its overheated and cant handle it,then gets the ring of death



then you get anoyed and buy a ps3 instead because thay dont have these silly flaws that bust your system

# DVD 360 is not DVD it is DVD9 DL totally different to normal dvdGuest 2007-03-29 05:15
Is it true that the PS3 version will proberly have the usual framerate drops and will printed twice on the Blu Ray disk so that it loads at a half decent speed.



I hear now that in the USA the 360 is outselling the PS3 in Japan and the USA combined it may go 360 exclusive with DMC4..

# Could be the poor sales ?Guest 2007-03-29 05:17
I heard they were dropping the PS3 version now that the 360 in the USA is outselling the PS3 in the USA and Japan combined, could that be the reason?.

# My turn, RoncoloidGuest 2007-03-29 15:28
HD-dvd is not included in the 360, so it doesn't matter. Wii sports came with every system sold, that may have helped sales. Let me get this straight you want to buy a new console every 4 years, damn M$ does have you idiots brainwashed. I would suggest you switch your cpu to linux because you may be overdosing.

For everyone else, If you hear anyone talking about a dead console, they must mean the first xbox, which has been dead for sometime, while the ps2 gets GOW and manhunt 2.
