GTA4 on Dowloadable Content "We want to fry Xbox Live"

There is a rumor floating around that Rockstar may release exclusive content for xbox live. It's also rumored that it will cost an upwards of $50 million.

According to Rockstar's CEO Sam Houser, the downloadable content may take in the form of random missions. For example, "In the game, you might be walking around and then someone will come up to you and say something like, 'Hey, I need your help', and you'll be like, 'What? This isn't a story mission', and he'll be like, 'You see that room up there? That's my wife and she's f***ing some bloke, and I need you to go and do...' and this little story will unfold from there just randomly," Houser told Edge magazine. Hosuer also said that it will depend on the fans reactions to the random missions to whether or not to continue with the missions.

Hosuer also stated that even if the content came in the form of a mission pack, it will be
"substantial".

"I think the mission packs with the episodes are going to be pretty deep, offering another full-on adventure in this world," he told Edge. "I think we will be in a position to market them not a million miles away from the way the boxed game is marketed."

I think it would be really cool if they did have random missions popping up throughout the game. It gives the game a more open feeling to have random thing happening around you.
