You've already waited 6+ months.

So 2 weeks is nothing.

Why would changes made for Sony cause a delay for the PC version?

Just be grateful they brought it at all, I always had my faith but man, it was a while there I thought they had moved on.

PC's case, the later it is delayed the better it is.

Perhaps the changes that Rockstar wanted to make in the Playstation version will effect the localization of the game and so they wanted to synchronize the changes that were made to the PC version. Though as someone already mentioned, 2 more weeks of waiting for these expansions is nothing compared to the total time its taken overall.

I'll be very surprised if this does well. The game is two years old now, and a lot of people were/are miffed over the initial exclusivity.

the episodic content is most defined not expansions, they are sequals, even if cut up, they extend the main story line etc etc.

Wikipedia disagrees

"Half-Life 2: Episode One is the first in a trilogy of episodes that serve as the sequel for the 2004 first-person shooter video game Half-Life 2."

Those episodes are true sequels in my eyes, not some expansions. Btw, doesn't expansions require the original game to be playable? Thats not the case with the HL2 episodes..

@Zaycube

They are expansions, and were marketed as expansions. Episode 1 is what, 4 hours long? 2 is like 6?

You can think of them as sequels all you want, but you'd be wrong.

I'm not very familiar with Valve, but I don't think you need Half-Life 2 to play any of the half life games. It's not an expansion if it doesn't expand on anything. (Correct me if I'm wrong about Half-Life episode requirements)

"in a trilogy of episodes that serve as the sequel for the 2004 first-person shooter video game Half-Life 2"

The "trilogy of episodes" (expansions, DLC, however you want to parse that) serves as the sequel to Half-Life 2.

What do they mean wanting to do a global release so Europeans don't miss out on multiplayer 2 weeks later than everyone else.

What about so many other multiplayer games or games with multiplayer modes not having simultaneous releases worldwide?

Can't believe Sony Europe would ruin it for the rest of us.

What could it be?

-An Xbox logo left somewhere or/and they want to add an SCEE logo?
-The PAL versions weren't set up to connect to the correct servers for online play?
-Trophies needed sorting out?

I know a lot of people probably don't care about this because the game is so old now, but I love GTAIV and have been waiting to play these episodes for a long time. This two week delay is very disappointing for me..

I was just playing GTA IV actually, and yes, it is very fun. I've never seen another franchise that lets you *flawlessly* throw grenades at the police. One of the reasons my whole family likes it.

Same here, I pre ordered this from Amazon when I first heard about it. I still have 1 or two missions left on the original so maybe this gives me more time to finally finish it.

Maybe they're adding a few goodies... isn't that how things usually go? Release exclusive game/content for 360, wait 1-2 years, release same thing for PS3 but with more content (BioShock, Lost Planet, Star Ocean 4), better graphics (Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2), new features (Tales of Vesperia), etc.?

@nerdydesi

Its just harmless speculation. Besides, whose to say something hasn't been in the works for weeks or months prior and they're just now announcing a delay. On the flip side, it could be nothing more than fine-tuning the DLC to avoid commonplace problems found with 360 DLC releases (like Fallout 3, GTAIV, DA:O Awakening).

It could just be a few europe specific spellings. two weeks delay? it can't be something too serious. but I'm sure there'll be 12 different sites to make comparison videos for our inspection.

I wonder if this game will have it's own Platinum, or if it will just add on to GTAIV's trophy list. I'mthinking it's most likely the latter...

That's actually a very good question, because the DLC might not add platinums (maybe you might get only 1).
Also, trophies are mandatory, and so are platinums (I think, i'm not sure).

I'm still waiting on Rockstar to fix the trophy-server bug in the original GTA IV. They actually expect you to win all 108 game modes (including races and GTA races) WITHOUT DISCONNECTING just for that "Auf Wiedersehen" Bronze.
