Rockstar working on DLC for PS3 version?Ok so we all know that the downloadable content is on the Xbox 360 but no one says it’s staying there. In a recent interview with my local radio station with “Cousin Ed & Dima” from Rockstar, they suggest the content is definitely just a timed deal.
I don’t know entirely what I can talk about, but it’s on Xbox. Microsoft came to us and said ‘hey here is some money if you can bring the content to us FIRST
So what does the above statement mean? It basically means that Microsoft went to Rockstar with $50 million and said bring it to us first before PS3 get it.

Rumor: Bioshock and GTA MMOEGM are reporting a number rumors including Bioshock heading to the Playstation 3. EGM is indeed reporting that Bioshock will be heading to the Playstation 3 in September. Not only that but the PS3 version of Bioshock will come complete with the games downloadable content and improved visuals.
Another rumor that struck is that EGM is reporting that a Grand Theft Auto massively multiplayer online game could be on the cards!
Rockstar has had trouble in the past with the British Board of Film Classification’s. Games such as Manhunt 2 has been banned by the BBFC in the past and failed to make a release.
Grand Theft Auto IV has passed BBFC ratings with any cuts and got an 18-rating for strong violence, very strong language, and sex and drug references.
During gameplay the character can pick up prostitutes and pay for three different levels of service. What follows is an un-detailed portrayal of masturbation, fellatio and intercourse. The character can also visit lap dancing clubs and request a private dance. While the game contains sexualised dancing and the portrayal of sex, there is no sexualised nudity.
BBFC state:

The final Grand Theft Auto IV trailer is here and it’s looking like a decent next gen game. The graphics look stunning, but no one knows what the gameplay is like yet. I hope it’s as good as it looks.
Grand Theft Auto IV is scheduled to be released in Europe, America and Australia on the 29th of April 2008 which is not very long away.
Here is the trailer.
