I'll take it!
Grand Theft Auto 4 announced as an Xbox 360 exclusive October 17, 2007.
Sony screams in torment.
I've heard rumors of them making an MMO out of that game too. Would be really interesting to see how they'd do that.
I can just see it now. Instead of joining a guild you'd join a gang. And have rival gang fights. I wonder if they would open it up to all the cities they've had in GTA.
This is bologna!
actually, you're right. turns out it'll be on PS3 as well.
Just heard about this on the Buzz Out Loud podcast. The deal is Xbox Live will have exclusive content, but the game is available across both platforms.

so xbox it is then i guess
I'm really torn. I might just get an xbox. Then eventually temporarily trade to it for a friends PS3 to play Metal Gear Solid 4 and other exclusives. I like xbox.
Im waiting till i get a hd tv to get one of them, ghost recon looks sick on my friends hd, anything else wont do the games justice
dude, the GR games are pretty much my favorites. i'm dying to get my hands on GRAW. and, yeah, HD -- slick.
additionally, and this gonna sound super geeky . . . but Tom Cruise in MI3 uses one of my favorite GR2 assault rifle. the G36. My fave? scoped M4. diesel.
i heard that if you are a female gamer at E3 you get a free shirt
