"We already own it" says Microsoft

Published at 6:20 PM PST

Microsoft believe they own Grand Theft Auto IV already, from a content prospective, Microsoft Game Studios boss Shane Kim stated:

“We already own it, I believe, from a content standpoint, because we have the exclusive episodes,” he said. “And so Xbox 360 is still going to have the ultimate experience for GTA IV.”

“Even though we’ve managed to do a good job in terms of getting the game day and date, people still, if you just let things roll, will associate Grand Theft Auto as a PlayStation franchise. Which means that we have to work really hard to make people understand that no, it’s not, and that you’ll actually get a greater experience on Xbox 360.”

No doubt they have been on the mark for Grand Theft Auto IV compared to the past GTA's. But will that be enough to overthrow Sony's very eventful history with Rockstar and the GTA Series? We'll see come the 29th of April.
