GTA IV Delay Won't Affect Microsoft Contract

[tef]

As 1UP listens in on today's Take-Two conference call addressing the delay of http://www.1up.com/do/gameOverview?cId=3150614 into spring 2008, a little more light has been shed on the contact between Take-Two and Microsoft to deliver episodic Grand Theft Auto IV content after release. Unfortunately, confidentiality agreements between the two heavyweights means the Take-Two had to keep most people in the dark.

Still, Take-Two Chairman Strauss Zelnick doesn't anticipate the delay affecting the contract. "We're not gonna send money back to Microsoft," he said. "That's not part of the deal."
