PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - GTA IV Ads Back on Chicago Buses, But Future M-Rated Game Ads Banned Niko Bellic is back.

About six months after the Chicago Transit Authority pulled ads for the violent but popular gangland video game "Grand Theft Auto IV," triggering a lawsuit from the gamemaker and attracting national attention, billboards for the game and its brooding, East European anti-hero have begun reappearing on the sides of CTA buses.

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Subscription-based GTA and BioShock planned? CVG.com writes: "Take-Two chief Strauss Zelnick says that the company's looking to exploit a subscription-based pricing model for its AAA titles.

While the publisher's currently focused on delivering its first DLC (for Grand Theft Auto IV and the PS3 version of BioShock), it has other plans in store to boost its bank account, which could see its premium titles take on a subscription-based model.

"The holy grail is taking a business, already a very large and successful business that's focused on packaged goods that you sell once and then are occasionally resold by others with new benefit to us, and turning that into a subscription business or a semi subscription business where we have an ongoing relationship with consumers, giving them products that they want," Zelnick said at last week's BMO Capital Markets conference (whoops, missed it at the time)."

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Despite Fanboy Accusations, Metacritic Does Not Exclude In-Network Review Scores Ripten writes: "A few weeks ago, we ran a story about LittleBigPlanet's Metacritic user score: a measly 6.3. We spoke to the site's founder Marc Doyle about the matter and were informed that it was only that low due to rampant fanboys on the warpath, attempting to sabotage the PS3 and its games. This inevitably continued with more low user scores: Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2. Well, it seems that now, fanboys have started trying to influence the critic's score, by flaming LittleBigPlanet on the site's forums.

While posting on this thread, an unnamed Metacritic user and certified fanboy claims they were wrongfully banned for what the cite deemed "crude and rude" statements. The complaint was then carried over by the user as an attempted news post on gaming news site N4G.

In the Metacritic thread itself, a series of users voiced concerns that not every 10/10 score for Sony's huge IP LittleBigPlanet had been posted to the site. The users kick and scream because their favorite system's biggest game isn't scored as high as they'd like - beaten only by GTA4. We spoke to Marc about the matter, and he summed up the idiocy neatly:..."

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Rockstar "not sure" when GTAIV content is coming Arstechnica writes: Before Grand Theft Auto IV's release, Microsoft paid $50 million to secure the exclusive rights to a large batch of downloadable content. To this day, no information about that content has been divulged, except for a tentative release date of fall 2008. Even that single piece of information appears to be moot now, as Rockstar has commented that it is "not sure" when the content will go live.

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - GTA IV Keys To The City Are Surprisingly Fancy If you got GTAIV on or just after its release, managed to rack up a 100% completion percentage and got one of those "return within seven days" emails, congratulations. You were one of the first people to "complete" the game, and earned yourself a prize. If you took the time to read that email, you'd have noticed that Rockstar warned it could take up to 120 days for your prize - a "key" to Liberty City - to arrive, depending on how many they had to make. Guess they had to make a ton of them, because they're only now, in November, shipping out to the winners. Reader MastaKwaa was one of the lucky ones, and his just turned up in the mail. If you're a fellow winner, yours will be there soon, and will look like this. If you weren't a winner, here's what you could have got yourself if you were a winner, and not a loser.

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - World Gaming lets you turn frags into cash It's every gamers' dream: win money by playing video games. Despite gaming's newfound mainstream acceptance, most people--especially those in the United States--do not recognize gaming as a legitimate competitive activity. In a country where card games like Texas Hold 'em have recently exploded, turning 21-year-olds into online superstars, it's no stretch to assume that more gaming mediums deserve a similar place in public attention.

PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Housers Will Stay With Rockstar - Analyst Edge writes: "With Grand Theft Auto masterminds Sam and Dan Houser's contracts up for renewal in February 2009, speculation has led some to believe the pair could be sniped by rival game makers.

But analyst Mike Hickey with Janco Partners finds that scenario unlikely, saying the two will stay with Rockstar Games.

He wrote in a Tuesday investor note, 'We find it unlikely that the Houser brothers would leave Take-Two Interactive for a competitor, as loyalty, compensation, culture and compelling IP should be sufficient in aggregate to leave employment alternatives unappealing.'"
