GTA IV downloadable content exclusivity an advantage for 360?

What we are talking about here is Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto IV for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and the former having an exclusive downloadable content. It was earlier reported that Microsoft gave Take-Two a hefty sum of money (read: US$ 50 million) just to have the exclusivity. And from what’s coming from RockStar, it’s worth every penny.

Anyway, Games Radar recently asked Rockstar Games‘ Hosi Simon whether there would be any advantages to owning the PS3 version of the game that could rival the Xbox 360’s exclusives. Simon initially answered “not that I can think of” then elaborated,

They’re identical games. We’re not hardware makers, and we’re not like a pawn between these companies, we try not to be as much as we can. We make great games for people to enjoy on whichever system they want. But I guess if you want the complete experience with the episodes, then yeah, you should buy the 360, I suppose.

Grand Theft Auto IV will be released this October.
