E3 2002: Sony gets Grand Theft Auto exclusive
Sony announces a two-year deal with Take-Two to make Grand Theft Auto III and future installments in the series exclusive to the PlayStation 2.
Sony Computer Entertainment America and Take-Two Interactive have announced an exclusive deal for the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Under terms of the agreement, Grand Theft Auto III and future installments in the series released before October 2004 will be released only on the Sony PlayStation 2 platform. This deal follows the recent release of Grand Theft Auto III for the PC, and it is unknown if the agreement eliminates the possibility of PC versions of upcoming Grand Theft Auto games coming out in the next two years.
Grand Theft Auto III was released for the PlayStation 2 last October and became the best-selling video game of 2001. The game also won numerous awards, including GameSpot's Video Game of the Year Award for 2001. Take-Two's Rockstar Games division recently announced Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, a follow-up to the game scheduled for release on the PlayStation 2 this fall.
