The Lost and Damned DLC for GTA IV on the Xbox 360 may not be as exclusive as we all thought it was after all. Rumor's been going around the circuit as of the weekend past claiming that the exclusivity was only a timed one. Can we therefore expect it to come to the PS3 as well?

If the rumors served were true, then we will be seeing it on the PSN as well come August. The source of the said info would be PS2 magazine. If you'll remember, it was heavily speculated that Microsoft paid a hefty US$ 50 million to get the exclusivity deal. Maybe they paid just US$ 25 mill after all?

Rockstar is still mum on the matter, so we'll just have to wait for their official word on this one. And if it is coming to the PS3 indeed, hopefully it won't experience the same launch horror stories that gamers on the Xbox 360 version suffered from.

I can only cross my fingers and hope it comes. Then, hopefully, Bethesda will follow suit with Fallout 3.

Please for Fallout 3. Seriously I want that DLC. This and the Fallout 3 are the only major DLC's that I want right now that I can't have.

That would be really great! But it's almost completly impossible... M$ already paid for this exclusivity...

Trust me, even those who didn't play it aren't missing out on much. I expected something epic, but in the end, it feels like a small set of bonus missions or something.

smells like a fanboy in diguise.

No-one knows what the deal was its all speculation

I hope it come out just to laugh at the 360 fanyboys that are convinced it wont even though no-one knows any details of this deal between rockstar + m$

Smells like a commoner in plain sight.

I don't bash anything unless I've played it. The DLC fails miserably as opposed to how long people with 360s had to wait for it.

im a little skeptical but i guess i can imagine it,should be fun if its coming on ps3 at last

As much as I wish to be true, 50 Million Dollars are way to much for JUST a timed exclusive. If it would have been 5 million, then it would come to PS3 eventually.

...But maybe I'm wrong. Who knows, we can only hope...

A little late for me, maybe next time Rockstar...

 » No.

Microsoft already bought exclusivtivty rights for 50 mil. So its not coming.

yes, microsoft did pay $25 million to keep this game a 360 exclusive, but the contrast expires in august and take two aren't happy with the numbers that were sold on the 360, thus they want to make more money, and ps3 is their only option, besides, take two stated that they will not reveal any future patches or updates and they did not deny that this is just a rumour, thus the possibility for this game to come on ps3 is high. so im not saying that it Will come to ps3, BUT i am saying is that the possibility for it to be ported to the ps3 is high

a wishful thinking rumor.

I'd rather R* work on something new for the ps3. 360 can keep this one imo.

   by HDRasta - 2009-05-13
 » well...

this is probably a big rumor but I heard the next installation GTA5 is Sony exclusive due to R* not wanting to water down their games to accompany other systems and they didnt like that there wasn't enough storage space on the 360. if this is the case 360 can keep this one as their last sweet taste of an awesome game.

 » Ps3 will get

Ps3 will get download content. Maybe not lost and damned though. I have information that points to a ps3 exclusive although it won`t rival loast and damned. Inside info points to more Missions within Liberty city. But at the same time supposedly more missions than lost and damned offers. This info was given to me by a Rockstar staff membre. He said Don`t worry ps3 will not lose out due to microsoft and the $25mil TIMED exclusive!

May I point out the $25mil TIMED exclusive comment!
