Grand Theft Auto IV Unveiled On 360

Despite expectations that this would be the least eventful of the E3 pre-conferences, Microsoft's Peter Moore drops the news that Grand Theft Auto IV will be on Xbox 360. Rockstar and Microsoft have teamed up to do exclusive episodic content in the GTA gameworld for the 360. Slated to release October 16, 2007 in North America, October 19 in Europe. Other details include lots of support for Live Arcade titles (Sonic, Galaga, Street Fighter II), the official unveiling of Shadowrun for the 360 and PC, the airing of the Halo 3 Teaser Trailer (which is already on Xbox Live), and much discussion of 'Live Anywhere'. This last is an expansion of Xbox Live to PC and cell platforms in addition to the Xbox arena.

It means you can update your "xbox has two good games (if you buy two copies of halo)" jokes to "xbox360 has two good games (if you buy two copies of GTA4)"

You know what? Super Mario (fill in the blank) is coming out exclusively for the Nintendo (fill in the blank) and that is all I need. I'll probably not buy either the PS3 or the 360.

Gosh that sounds great. If you rake all the leaves this summer, maybe your mom will buy you the Nintendo. Good luck!

Yeah, because that's what gets people excited about a new console. A controller.

I don't care if the Wii operates by wireless brain-wave scanning. It's still mainly going to be used to throw pastel mushrooms at cartoon dinosaurs. I'll pass, thanks.
