GTA IV New Content Delayed

June 10th 2008 03:08
GTA IV
Rockstar's PR person has faced criticism in the wake of the news


Rockstar have announced that their highly publicised exclusive Grand Theft Auto IV content for the Xbox 360 will be delayed until late 08 - early 09. Initial feelings have been predictable with forums and websites critisizing the move. For regular gamers though this shouldn't create too many ripples. The GTA IV world is already brimming with content and for many of us the delay should match up with our finishing the single player game and beginning to tire of the multiplayer mode. The good news is that the content will stay exclusive, so those that had purchased a 360 version can sleep well at nights, knowing that those cursed PS3 owners will still suffer in their jocks.

It's safe to assume that this decision was made in conjunction with Microsoft, whose $50m investement has cunningly kept the Xbox360 ahead of the competition.

Fallout 3


Before you sell an infrequently used organ to finance the purchase, the exciting announcement made by Amazon.com that they would be supplying "Fallout 3: Exclusive Survival Edition" turns out to be only for the American market. Due to shipping policies set in place by the online retail giant, no versions of the limited number release will be available to the enthusiastic Fallout fanbase in Australia.


Fallout 3
The Survival Edition will host a fanboy dream - a life size Pip-boy, cunningly converted from rad meter and all round post-apocalyptic survival tool to mild mannered clock. As with the other editions it includes:
Vault Boy collectors item direct from Vault-Tec,
The Art of Fallout 3 hardcover book of exclusive concept art and commentary,
Special DVD The Making of Fallout 3 included for a behind the scenes look at the creative team,
Includes fully customized metal Vault-Tec lunch box.

UPDATE: I am speechless. Due to the drug content within Fallout 3, the Australian classifications board has banned the title from our shores. I wish I could add more detail, but I am completely and utterly gutted by the news and can't bring myself to write any more on the subject. Let's hope sanity prevails and something is done soon about the ridiculous situation that doesn't allow adult gaming content into the country.
