Rockstar has just announced that, Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City is coming to the PS3 and PC on March 30. It will be the same format as the xbox 360 where you can buy them from the playstation store/ games for windows or you can buy a disk from your locally game retail store. A disc will set you back $39.99, while individual episodes will be $20 each.

Well, I sold my copy of GTA IV a long time ago, but even if I had it, I’ll be [Lost and] Damned if I pay $40 for that shit. I don’t care how good they are. $40 is too much for a couple of episodes. It should be $20 for both, especially since they’ve been out for awhile (especially the Lost and Damned).

Well unlike the others above, I actually enjoyed GTA4 a lot, lol.
I’m thinking about getting these, but it depends on how long the episodes actually are (anybody care to share?). From what I understand, they’re each about half the length of the original GTA4, so it seems seems like a reasonable price to me. Some of you need to understand that damn near everything costs a lot of money, that’s just the way it is, it’s not overpriced.

Wow, really not worth $40. Your getting two new storylines which is around 6-8 hours long, new wapons, new soundtracks and shit load of things to do which you can’t do in gta 4. You guys are crazy thinking its expensive!

little advice, buy the ballad of gay tony but not the lost and the dammed, LATD is rubbish and doesent offer much new, BOGT is much better and gives you loads of new things

That’s good that they’re on PS3, but you guys are getting ripped off – for one the DLC is sooo old now, especially TLAD.
If anything, I say definitely buy both because there are bonuses packed in that add to the experience! As you play thru the DLC as new characters, you will run into and do missions with Niko!

I’m starting to believe people should do their research before calling other people out. As others have already stated, I’m actually right.
Little lesson for you, England (yeah, you know that place i “claim” to be from) has been hit hard by the recession because the GBP was so strong, exchange rates have fallen and thus, our money isn’t worth as much as it used to.
Damon and Blu are right, it is actually around £26, but Sony are obviously going to round it up to £30 because £26 just doesn’t look right, and the English store is always overpriced…
I’m not saying you two was wrong, I was just stating my reasons for saying £30.

@My-kal: Yea it’s all good, man. They probably do round up like that. lol If I was y’all I’d import all my games from here in the U.S. to get them at better prices. The U.S. seems to get the best prices on everything. Japan pays even more for games than the UK. I think FF 13 is gonna be the equivalent of like $90 USD in Japan. I guess they know people will pay it.

Yeah, I’ve considered importing as of late but there’s a number of negatives..
1. Giving money to America won’t get the U.K out of the recession (not that I don’t want the whole world to recover, but I would like my money to be worth something… no what I mean? lol)
2. Importing laws are getting tight over here now a days (Partly because of point 1)
3. Royal Mail (If you guys have heard of it) is the most unreliable postal service in the world, so I would have to pay for courier delivery, which may make the lower price in the U.S be equal or more than buying it over here.
4. Potential DLC would need to be brought from the U.S PS Store, and there’s no saying Sony won’t lock regions tomorrow.

@My-kal: lol Well, maybe it’s not worth importing then. I didn’t know about import laws getting tight. However, don’t y’all have FedEx? They can’t really stop people from importing things like games. Also, I didn’t know you’d have to buy the dlc from the ps store of the game’s origin. I figured you could buy dlc for the game from any ps store.

lol, naa… We don’t have FedEx, although I have heard of it. We have Parcel Force… Game’s probably will get through customs but sometimes they get shitty and on the websites that you import from they warn you that you could potentially not receive the product because of customs.
Idk what you game cases are like in the U.S but I think they’re probably the same… On the spine of the box it’ll have a code… only content that matches that code will work.. U.S codes for the games and E.U codes are different.

It was announced just this week that were out of the recession, by gordon fucking brown… but thats a whole nother topic and i dont really wanna get political.
(hes so dumb, obviously people spent more, it was xmas!!!)
Regardless, we will still struggle until the entire world has recovered because the pound was so strong, we might be over the worst of the recession, but it hasnt gone… do you drive, have you seen how much petrol is!? lol
I don’t understand the bit about download lol…
And did I claim England was the whole of the U.K?… In fact, have I even used the word Britain??… So are you correcting me on something I didn’t even say? :S

Petrol/Gas is atm around £1.10-£1.18 (Although ASDA ((Walmart)) I think sell for £1 a litre)… So basically you get 5 times more fuel for roughly 70 cent more..

btw, sorry for double post lol
Before anyone calls me out on my maths from above I’ll explain how I came to my conclusion…
If you didn’t know, 1 litre (which is what we use over here) is equal to 0.2 of a gallon..
The rough dollar to sterling ratio is £1 to $1.80.
So,
5 litres = 1 Gallon
£1 = $1.80
For the same amount of fuel, we would have to pay £9, where you pay $2.50.
I might seem a bit OTT here, but I’m tired (almost 1am) and I’m tired of having to explain myself 1,000 times on every statement I make lol. Btw this wasn’t directed at anyone.

@My-kal: lol But that’s per litre, not per gallon. There’s approx. 3.78 liters per gallon. So basically y’all pay 1.10 X 3.78 = £4.16 per gallon which equals $6.65 per gallon compared to our $2.50-$2.70. lol I guess that’s why most of you all’s cars are stick shifts; they’re more efficient.

in this generation the xbox 360 is like the ps2 and the ps3 is like the original xbox. every game came out for ps2 then it eventually got ported to the xbox. thats how i c it.

@boyracing007: yea thats true they did flop. honestly i think its just because the 360 came out first. all the ppl who were serious gamers who could afford it ran out and got the first next gen console they could get their hands on, which led to a large fanbase. which is why developers r more inclined to develop on their systems=more money (i kno the programming is eisier on 360 too) and it was the same way just flopped last gen.
