Has some info about the DLC:

The first downloadable "episode" for GTA IV will be along in August, and it'll only be available on the Xbox 360. Rockstar isn't revealing any details, but company president Sam Houser has suggested they'll be separate storylines you can pick up within the game - like someone coming up to you in the street, asking for your help. You'll have to pay for them, but Houser reckons they'll be excellent value for money - Microsoft's confirmed they'll be at least 10 hours long - and be very popular, as Rockstar's goal is "to fry the Xbox Live servers." Don't schedule any multiplayer for August, then.

Wow, 10 hours in DLC is pretty impressive! I thought it'd just be a couple of missions, not an entire story :p

Sounds awesome, shame we have to pay for them to be honest. How much will the Game + DLCs come to in the end? If each DLC is about 800 microsoft points then yeah... :|

*sigh*

Read what it says, "at least 10 hours" it could be more and i would think it will be especially if the DLC includes new multiplayer modes.

I doubt it will be anything multiplayer - I'd foresee any multiplayer updates being universal.

However on the 10 hour side of things, that is good! Hopefully it is roughly that long, and it doesn't cost too much!

How much was the Oblivion DLC?

I think the most expensive DLC for oblivion was shivering isles and that was 1200 points (i think).

Maybe multiplayer modes would be universal but if the DLC is going to be as big, i can see MP modes or at least some new co-op missions being in there.

@huleboeren, If MS paid for the excluisve DLC and want at least 10 hours they'll demand it. Also i think in an interview Sam Houser has said that they want to make DLC worth it and make it worth our money.

You mean the Horse Armor :laugh: or the actual expansion packs.

Actual expansion packs, but it's ok Lingwo answered! Unless the horse armor was 1200 points, but I doubt that :/

Maybe co-op but I doubt any multiplayer stuff is going to be exclusive for either platform!

The Horse Armor was like 800 Points when it was first released i think, perhaps 400 ( Which is still expensive ).

But ... It's Horse Armor!

Well if it's 10 hours DLC.. I think it's only fair to pay.

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • Governments are ruining the internet to protect kids but there is a much better way

      By WaltC · Posted

      From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.
