Rockstar reveals details of GTA: IV Special Edition packages In an effort to move the media's focus off Manhunt 2, Rockstar Games announced some of the details of their highly anticipated upcoming game Grand Theft Auto: IV
The developer said they will be taking pre-orders of the special edition of the game, which will run at $90 USD for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. They will also be taking pre-orders of the regular edition, which will cost you $60. The orders are already being taken at rockstargames.com/warehouse

Rockstar also gave some details about what was in the special edition packages.

• The game in a custom metal safety deposit box with keys on a Rockstar keychain.

• A limited edition Rockstar duffel bag.

• The Grand Theft Auto IV Art Book with exclusive production images.

• A GTA IV soundtrack CD.


According to Rockstar, "All of the items have been created with the utmost attention to detail to create a unique Grand Theft Auto IV experience for any fan of the series".

gtaIV will only have downloadable content for the 360 correct? seeing rockstar shift to being more 360 oriented than ps3 is sad. the ps3 is sinking fast.

in other 360-is-better-than-ps3 news, the new madden will run at 60fps on the 360 as opposed to 30 on the ps3.

its good to see people are getting their dollars worth out of that 600 dollar center peice.

GTA was already Multiplatform pretty much... The games just came out for the Xbox after the PS2.

And the extra content for the 360 is probably some crap mini-missions that will go for like $10.00 that aren't even worth thinking of.

Why should you have to pay for stupid Xbox Points when you have Gamer Score Points? What's the use of those points if all they show is how diehard you are lol.

I read that Microsoft paid $50 Million for exclusive rights for the two add on packs. So I guess it will be like the Oblivion add on packs. For a small fee you will beable to download them off xbox live. As rich as he is he aint gonna give em away know is he:)

Sony didn't let these companys go anywhere they was the one that said they was going to be Exclusives to Sony during the PS2 days but this is Nex-Gen nothing is promised & also why would any studio go exclusive when they can make more money going multi platform.

while that might be true some devs are using 30FPS locks on the PS3 because of the odd coding structure and other issues, or so the rumorers go anyway.

It seems the PS3 is still a monster of a system,they need more time to get the coding and glitches dealt with,the 360 has more mature coding on it but the 30% fail rate screws with it LOL.
