Scott Steinberg, VP of product marketing at Sony America, isn't concerned about
Microsoft's exclusive Grand Theft Auto IV content. Speaking with
GameDaily, Steinberg believes anyone who's played
GTA: San Andreas knows there's plenty to do in a
GTA game without adding extra content, but he really drives the point home with a zinger saying Microsoft "
spent the GNP of several small Latin American countries to get that [content]."
Steinberg surmises that
not a huge percentage of customers are going to jump for the downloadable content when
GTA IV is so huge and they're still playing through the core game. He also contends that consumers who are still fence sitting about purchasing a console will want a PS3 after noticing that
GTA IV,
Metal Gear Solid 4 and
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue are all on PS3.
