Yes I'm bringing it up again because its an interesting note. The GTA content is exclusive to Xbox, obviously, but this could very well be timed for sure. In a recent interview with my local radio station with "Cousin Ed & Dima" from Rockstar, they suggest the content is defently just a timed deal.
Today at the PlayStation Store, Sony secretly revealed the latest addition to their store. The new section in the PlayStation Store is called "Rockstar Store".
PlayStation 3 owners visiting ToysRUs.com may have had a brief thrill today when they saw PlayStation 3 box art for Rockstar's supposedly Xbox-only Grand Theft Auto IV expansion disc on the company's site. Just an error, according to Rockstar.

Earlier this week Rockstar Games posted some clarifying facts on Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony & GTA: Episodes from Liberty City. In that post they asked fans to submit other questions they have related to the game. Now they've answered some of them and published it on their website.
Rockstar recently showed off the boxart for the retail edition of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City. The pack includes both pieces of DLC for the Xbox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto IV.
