Online reports suggest Rockstar's special content won't be ready in time, despite upbeat predictions from Microsoft, who it is believed paid big in order to secure the content.

Houser admitted he wasn't sure whether it would be out in time, continuing: "It’s going well. But we don't know a date. We hope to be announcing that in the next few weeks. We're still figuring out a few things. We're more focused on quality than dates, always have been. But the is going really good. It's shaping up to be something we’re very proud of. That was our goal."

Rockstar will apparently reveal more on the nature of the content pre-release, Houser keen not to mislead people: "We don’t want them to imagine it's this enormous thing that it can never be."

He added that there are also a few nerves, as the developer have never undertaken a major release before. We'll keep you posted on this.
