The downloadable content for the Xbox 360 version of the upcoming Grand Theft Auto IV was announced over a year ago now, and up to this time PlayStation owners have been waiting for something to make their expensive investment worth it. Sadly it may seem that something is in fact nothing.

Rockstar Games spokesman, Hosi Simon, today announced that there will be no exclusive features for the PlayStation 3 to rival the Xbox 360's downloadable content. When asked during a recent interview he was asked if owning a PlayStation 3 would offer anything to rival the Xbox 360's features, he replied with "not that I can think of." He continued "They're identical games. We're not hardware makers, and we're not like a pawn between these companies, we try not to be as much as we can. We make great games for people to enjoy on whichever system they want. But I guess if you want the complete experience with the episodes, then yeah, you should buy the 360, I suppose"

No information has been released yet as to what the Xbox 360 version's download content will contain, or as to what extent it will change your game play. But from his identifying the game as being identical on both systems, our bet is they will be an extra, not core to the completion of the game (so not story missions for example, possible multiplayer packs or side-mission add-on's).

Although I wouldn't be too worried just yet, it seems more like Mr. Simon himself wasn't very sure on what he was saying. Notice that he used "think", "guess" and "suppose" through-out the article, which leads us to believe there is something going on and they are keeping it quiet or nobody is really sure on what the status is just yet. We'll keep you up-to-date on how this all pans out.
