Considering all you would have to do is provide me with a flame thrower to provide me with hours of entertainment, that is setting the bar low... ;)

Seriously....add in all the fun weapons from Vice City, and you've basically fufilled the quota.

Give me a flamethrower, katana, hatchet, screw driver, etc, and I'm a happy man. Hell, I'd pay just to get the mini-gun back.

Then again, you could sell me a parachute to use when jumping off sky scrapers, and I'd also be pretty satisfied with the content I received. 99% of my problem with GTAIV is the exclusion of the wacky weapons (the other 1% being the screwy driving physics) and if they could fix that with DLC.....I'd consider the game a 9.9 instead of something more like a 9.5

This DLC better be worthwhile or else all of this touting makes Microsoft look stupid.

Yeah, that probably has to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard. 2 months? Ha. R* wouldn't screw over half (roughly, give or take a couple of percentage points) of it's user base with this game by shutting down online for 2 months.

How could the PS3 multiplayer have been offline for 2 months when the game just came out yesterday?

How long do you think it's gonna take a PS3 fanboy to come into enemy territories and start saying that they are going to eventually get the "Exclusive Content" that Microsoft paid $50 Mill for?? I would say in about 10 posts... anyone else smell Propane?? I think George Foreman and his Blog Post Bullies are on the way. (Xbox 360 Fanboy comes out in me! when we are superior to that "Colby" rip-off) HAHA

Well not trying to defend it but PS3's are very likely to get DLC.The difference is:

PS3 DLC: Extra Weapons and/or Cars
Xbox 360: All the PS3 shit and extra hours of gameplay!

You're paranoid.

By the way, MS paid for 2 exclusive episodes. If there are any more, that would mean that the PS3 would get them, but not the ones MS paid for...

DLC is coming to both systems, something people do seem to forget in the fanboy war/s, but it depends on what.

I would hope its extra hours! What were they going to say?

New DLC provides extra minutes of new content!

Yeah, thats appealing.

PSN is a joke. Even if PS3 could ever get this content, their online network is such garbage that no one would ever be able to DL it.

It's not that hard to download it....Really, took me about a minute when I bought some last week.

I don't pick sides -- I own and play both systems -- but AFAIK Live has spent a lot more time in "unplanned outage" state than PSN.

Also, the PSN store absolutely used to be abominable (it was a crappy somewhat-tailored web page, basically), but the new one feels a lot smoother and is much easier to use. Should they have launched a redesign earlier? Hell yes. But it's there now, and up and running. And I actually find my PS3 demos downloading faster than the 360 ones -- YMMV, I guess.

Im hoping that the extra hours are all new story missions (or an entire new island) instead of just new cars and weapons... I would definatly buy that

Am I nuts or were some of these exact comments by Rockstar posted here before...?

Although I guess since it's a press release they're going to reuse lots of those quotes lol.

@Russ... "I wonder when rockstar is going to unveil the PS3's DLC... I mean, its a 50 million dolalr timed release... NOT an official microsoft content... C'mon... seriously"


lol...

okay, now back to the real world... Im hoping the DLC is going to be like crackdown... New missions, new weapons, new cars, new game modes... I mean, thats a REAL expansion pack... Story is great, but if they gave us a "curb stomp" then i cant wait...

But who am i kidding... i just started the game... Im not in any rush to get the DLC at all...

*Sigh*

I would be really great if they could, you know, maybe hint MORE at what it will be? That would've pushed some on the fence buyers towards the 360 version, but now we're just listening to people say to get it in anticipation of what the DLC may be....

Speaking as someone who plays GTA until enough of the world is open for me to not care about the story anymore, I hope that any DLC is not just extra missions, though I wouldn't necessarily object to new missions being part of the deal.

Any UK gamers noticed how Niko and Roman both bear a very strong resemblance to Barry and Paul Chuckle?

big fuss over nothing. I'm sure PS3 owners won't exactly be disappointed by losing out on a couple of hours of GTA - after all isn't there much better things to do within the space of a few hours? - like things that don't involve sitting in front of a screen and fulfilling your own selfish desires?
In fact, isn't there much better things to do than play GTA? Yes there is so don't get too glued...

I'm guessing the first episode costs 1200 MS Points (USD$15), introduces a small new island, and provides enough new missions for another 5 hours of play, plus exploring.

I'm on the fence about the DLC until they announce the price and some more details, though.

In my opinion, if they do release new islands, they won't be any bigger than Broker
