The story is here. Make what you will of it but the idea is amazing. Microsoft payed $50 Million for the DLC so a new city wouldn't be that far of a stretch to put out. But the fact that they claim it's going to be as big as San Andreas is amazing.

Do you think it's fake or real?

Although I've already read it, I'm still a little skeptical and won't get my hopes up

Looking at Rockstar and i start thinking about the trackrecord this acctualy makes alot of sense. They might be the first one to make Downloadable Content a huge deal. Something that I can acctualy see Rockstar doing.


Forgot to add, I dont know about a whole new city. And if that would be the fact, they would have to belive the 360 is the only place where the dedicated gamers is, since its exclusive.

Nope...No way. I just don't think they would shaft PS3 that bad. They would have some angry Sony owners.

But we can always hope right? I just think it would be a few measly missions.

I don't think it's a new city - that'd be a dumb move on R*'s part. 10 hours of gameplay can be ~20 missions.

Actually I don't think they're too worried about angering any sony owners. They're gonna make a *censored word meaning excrement* ton of money no matter who gets mad. It's been known from the announcement of the game that the 360 version was going to have exclusive content (50,000,000 worth of it) so if they were going to get mad they should have done it way back then. I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out true either. We probably won't have to wait long to find out more though. I imagine the official story will hit shortly after the game is released.

Microsoft didn't pay 50 million dollars - budget enough for huge games - to make Sony fans happy they supported Sony.


That said, my money is on a downloadable city as an expasion, but the 360 Exclusive DLC remaining in Liberty. And I bet one of them will be all multiplayer crap.

Microsoft didn't pay $50 million for something small. A new city is more than a reasonable assumption IMO.

A new city would be awesome but I won't get my hopes up for it. The DLC is the reason I chose this version anyway. So even if it something small it will still be more than my PS3 will be seeing...

50.000.000 is the development cost for alot.. So getting paid 50.000.000 (this is a minimum, becouse we DO NOT know the price for sure yet. They payed 48.000.000 to be right, but thats just what they pre paid, probebly more money involved, and I belive the term DLC is very lossly used here, and its maybe more like an expansion pack) must be for more then some small DLC, becouse both Microsoft and Rockstar, and most of us knows that a few cars, a few missions and crap like that is not worth 50.000.000 in a long shot. Not even by far. So I would belive there is alot more to it then we small people know

That would be absolutely insane!! If it is, expect a minimum of a $20 price tag. But $20 for a new city is one of the best investments you will ever make lol. =)

I don't think a new city will be put in the Xbox 360 version only, I think maybe some cars, weapons, and even missions. My guess is that Microsoft got the DLC to convince people to buy the 360 and GTA for it, and since rumors are pointing that the PS3 is still going to sell as much as the 360 they are spreading there own rumor of DLC Cities. Who knows though, after all they did pay 50 Million. But still chances of an entire new city? We'll have to see.
