Rockstar has always been tight-lipped with GTA. They'll show you things here and there, but won't show you the big stuff until ver near the release.

If your talking about the two exclusive downloadable content for the 360 version, those probably wont come out until 2008. I found it kind of wierd how they jus threw that out there, maybe it was a way to get more people to buy the 360 version. I have a strong feeling that the exclusive episodes might be Vice City & San Andreas

Nah it's going to be more missions I think..

And Rockstar has always done this, but there actually has been quite a lot of info in previews such as Gamespot's previews and IGN's preview, as well as the magazine ones. No gameplay yet, but reading the previews should show you enough to know how awesome the gameplay will be ;)

With SA they didnt show anything more than pictures right up until later september and october. They give each of the big 3 gaming websites a major preview or 2 each month right up until release. So expect maybe 4 or 5 more gs previews before the release and maybe 1 or 2 more trailers before late spetember.

4 or 5 more previews and 1 or 2 more trailers in 2 months? Thats saying a lot man. IMO, I think we'll see one more preview, and probably a TV trailer or two. I really dont expect to see that many previews. Its too bad we cant see some gameplay cause to be honest, not only do I want to see how it plays, but how the graphics look! I played GTA the other day and the graphics are so clunky and not smooth, so I'm excited to see the combination of amazing gameplay with beefed up graphics.

You can see the graphics in the trailer, that plus an interface.

They don't have to show gameplay if they don't want to. Personally I like that they don't. I know GTA will be amazing, I don't need to see it being played. Also, it'll be more of a surprise when I finally get to play it.

Exactly, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I really don't need to see it because I know it's going to be awesome. Not seeing it helps keep the hype down a bit so the game is even better when you get it. The game will be in our systems in two and a half months which will go by very fast with all of the great games landing in the upcoming weeks and beyond.

Different companies, different marketing techniques. I can pretty much guess what will be involved, I look so forward to this, they don't have to wet my appetite.

You will have to pay and the first pack off downloadable content will come out March of 2008. This was known a while.

The downloadable content will be new areas in Liberty City and new missions. Vice city and San Andreas will NOT be making a return.
