With only a couple of weeks to go before Rockstar Games’ flagship title Grand Theft Auto 4 (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) goes out, a couple of rumors regarding the title’s release has once again popped up. Neogaf forum poster Skip (a.k.a. Andrew Pfister, writer of 1UP’s GTA 4 preview) revealed that the upcoming game will have a five-minute mandatory install time for the PlayStation 3 version.
It was further revealed that the installation for the Xbox 360 version of GTA 4 is a completely optional feature. Unfortunately, there’s been no confirmation from Rockstar whether this will make it in the final version of the game when it ships to retail stores.
In addition, word from CVG’s GTA 4 special feature has it that the Xbox 360-exclusive downloadable content for the game won’t just contain the odd car or additional skins. The DLC will supposedly contain an area as significant as Vice City or San Andreas. Should this rumor be true, it’ll definitely extend playability for the Xbox 360 version by leaps and bounds.
We only have less than two weeks to go before the release of Grand Theft Auto 4, so we might as well wait and see how Rockstar decides to play out its cards until then. In any case, make sure to come back to this spot for more updates regarding this much anticipated title.
