A couple of days ago it was revealed that the Xbox 360 would be the proud recipient of exclusive episodic content for GTA IV.
This of course is exciting news for 360 owners, and now we might even know exactly how much it
cost, to secure that content.
In a recent Take-Two conference call that pertained to profit margins and all that boring stuff, a nugget of gold was discovered.
When it came to the company's plan for downloadable content in fiscal 2008, $50 million dollars was set aside for episodic content coming to the Xbox 360:
"The first 25 is for the first episodic content package that’s supposed to go out and that is in March of ’08. That’s why it moved into current because it’s in the next 12 months. The second 25 will be for the second episodic, the episode, and that will be later in fiscal ’08."
At this point it's very hard to say that the content isn't for GTA IV, and it's even harder to say that Microsoft wasn't the one that contributed the $50 million dollars. So Microsoft loves you $50 million dollars worth everybody!
