While it has been long known that the downloadable, episodic content for GTA IV is to be exclusive to the Xbox 360, it wasn’t until a recent blunder by a US Rockstar spokesperson that it was confirmed there would be no consolation for PS3 owners hoping for an exclusive of their own.

Speaking to Games Radar, Hosi Simon claimed: “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.

However, after a good start he concluded: “But I guess if you want the complete experience with the episodes, then yeah, you should buy the 360, I suppose.

Gloating Xbox fans and disappointed PS3 owners will likely feel equally passionate about this news.

Grand Theft Auto IV is scheduled for release across Europe on October 19 for PS3 and Xbox 360.
