Rockstar creative vice president Dan Houser has admitted that bringing the next iteration of GTA to the Xbox 360 is more challenging because there's no guarantee of a hard drive in every unit and disc space is limited to DVD instead of Blu-ray.

You know, GTA is one game where a use for all the extra space afforded by Blu Ray springs instantly to mind: biggest licensed soundtrack ever. Imagine every station having more songs than VC or SA's entire library.
Custom soundtracks make that kind of a moot point, though.
For a lot of people I guess that's true. Me, I hate the custom soundtrack feature and never use it. You're basically chopping off a large portion of the game as the developer intended it to be experienced.
God this pisses me off. Fuck Microsoft for being the PS2 of the new generation.
Uh, wouldn't that be the Wii?
No, the Wii isn't in the new generation.
I don't see how licensed soundtracks would be enough to affect development. So the soundtrack is smaller, big deal. As long as the game itself is unaffected and runs like it should, who cares? You want the soundtrack? Stream a custom one off a jump drive.
I tried, and then I realized I don't remember any of the songs in those games. For games like this it'd be custom soundtracks all the way no matter what they put on there.Quote:

The VC soundtrack kicked ass. I even bought the 10-disc box set. God bless the 1980s.
