We recently posted up a rumour that the marvelous Grand Theft Auto DLC expansion, The Lost and Damned, was possibly headed to the Playstation 3.
Unfortunately, for any Playstation 3 owners who were getting excited, Microsoft have come out of hiding to shoot down the rumours by saying that that the “episodes are and will stay exclusive to the Xbox 360”.
If it is indeed true that Microsoft forked over 50 million for the exclusivity, then I am pretty sure that they would want to do everything in their power to keep it that way, so I highly doubt that they bought into a timed deal.
Do you think the DLC will still come to PS3? When GTA IV launched it was made pretty clear that the DLC would be exclusive to the Xbox 360, so I don’t know if there is a possibility of it’s release on PS3, not for a very long time anyway.
Are any of you regretting your decision to go with the PS3 version instead of the Xbox 360, or could you care less about it? Let us know in the comments.

i couldn’t care less to be honest, if thats the way rockstar want to conduct their business, then so be it.
exclusive titles are a pain, yet understandable, but for dlc to be exclusive is a big f.y. to people who supported them.
at any rate, gta is not the only game out there, and i’m definitely not going to get upset over dlc for a game thats getting on.

I’m pretty glad I went with the PS3 version of the game, because I don’t have an Xbox.
But I’m sad that I can’t play the DLC cos’ it looks the business.

The DLC is amazing. Worth buying a 360 and GTA 4 for just that!
Pity the PS3 does not get to feel the biker love… :devil:

The Downloadable Content Adds A Lot To The Experience.
IV Was Always A Good Game, Some People Dont See That.
The Lost And Damned Was Amazing Fun, And The Ballad Of Gay Tony Sounds Like Mafia Type Stuff.
But I Wouldnt Say Its Worth Getting And Xbox For..
Making DLC Exclusive For 6 Months Sounds Stupid, I Doubt It’ll Go To The PS3, But You’ll Never Know, Or You Might.. D:
Its Really Worth Getting, Dont Let Idiots Or FanBoys Talk You Out Of It.

If no good news announced of GTA DLC for PS3 on or after August 20th, which is the contract expiration date between Microsoft and Rockstar games, I might consider getting xbox 360 once and for all.

Rockstar – if this is how they treat their customers then same finger back at them from a new ex customer. Money is their customer it seems.
