Erm...You don't have exclusive info here, you are reporting that a magazine has exclusive info. Then you give away naff all about the multiplayer.

The content is exclusive to the 360, not the story to us. Notice the full stop between "Content" and "Details"?

Bad reading?

yep, bad reading.
I wonder how realistic the damage modeling will be. Hopefully no more blasting the side of buildings with rocket launchers with no incurred damage...but realistically it is extremely unlikely this will make the cut as you would then have to factor in how long the damage stays, buildings potentially collapsing, NPC AI routines to such a reaction and so forth. perhaps with the power of the XBOX 1080 Still, I hope there is at least some flat, superficial damage, not just an ugly black mark...

NO PLANES!?!?!?!?!?!? WTF!!!! NO PLANES?!?!?!?!? Why would they remove planes? I have been looking forward to this game for quite a while now and this news of no friggn planes is very disappointing. I was eager to fly from one side of the map to the other without pop up. Why have you forsaken us rockstar?? Why??

no jet pack is quite a blow
being able to see the whole city and fly around above adds an entirely new dimension to the game...there better at least be a cheat where you can make your guy fly around if you cant use some kind of vehicle to do so

If it read "Exclusive: 360 content", then I'd be inclined to agree, but it doesn't

Nope. The engineering's spot on, this is another case of pilot error.

The jet pack was fun for a while, but in the end it killed the point of ground vehicles and left me just scouring the landscape for hidden pick-ups.
Dropping it travel is fine, IMO. It was useful with a world as large as San An, but it's just unnecessary for Liberty City, and would probably be damaging to the gameplay.

I kinda like these two points
• Rockstar consulted crime experts and ex-policemen when making the game.
• There are a great deal more of the fuzz (arresting a great deal more crime) in this version of Liberty City.
ive been waiting for realistic police since the first 3d gta and while I will admit that things got more difficult as the cops became more sensitive over the years, I always lost the thrill of the chase in some missions where I'd blow through a red right in front of a cop and nothing happens. Speeding too and while some may complain that it'll be too hard, I see it in another light, it actually makes the game more challenging and thus worth more then most games that can be beat with one rental at blockbuster. It just adds a whole new level of gameplay and realism which is what this title seems to be shooting for anywas. That and this is probably R*'s response to all the critics that say gta promotes violence, by making it much more difficult to break the law and get away with it.

"The Xbox 360 demo begins with Niko outside the taxi depot, run by Roman in a converted industrial garage in Broker."

U fools!!! Episodic content is NOT just for the 360 but also for the PS3!! U guys really need to shape up, after the xbox announced out of their ass that they will have exclusive content, 3 days later R* came out and said they will do the same for the PS3. And this was like 6 months ago. So I don't know u fools are getting yr info from.

That fact that the idea of downloadable content is being used on both versions doesn't stop the actual content you can download from being exclusive to each version.
Simple example, if Burnout 5 has downloadable cars (and I have no idea if it does or doesn't) then you may expect that the 360 version will have a 360-themed racer and that the PS3 version will have a PS3-themed racer. The downloadable content idea isn't exclusive, but the actual cars are.

Where in that article does it say PS3 won't get episodic? It just states that 360 will get EXCLUSIVE episodic content.
You people really need to learn how to comprehend what you read.

I'm confused, does this mean the PS3 version won't get exclusive content?

All sounds good so far, I just hope its enough to keep me playing the game, this time to the end. San Andreas had flaws which I pray they'll address this time, like the save system. You should be able to save anytime, anywhere.
