GTA: Episodes From Liberty City gets some new TV spots

By the time you read this, it'll be literally hours before the arrival of GTA: Episodes From Liberty City, and the brand new episode, The Ballad Of Gay Tony. Still, even with the launch imminent, there's always room for some GTA newsy goodness, and if you take a stroll down the page you'll be able to see just one example of some new in-game TV content that players will be able to enjoy in the new GTA chapter.

Taking a poke at the undeniably odd, scantily-clad teenybopper world of anime, the new trailer reveals the cartoon craze sweeping Liberty City - Princess Robot Bubblegum. It's anime-tastic, and bound to raise a chuckle from anyone with an interest in the medium.

As well as this new titillation, Rockstar have confirmed that existing shows like Republican Space Rangers, I'm Rich, and my personal favourite, The Men's Room will receive new episodes. You simply can't have too much Bas Rutten in your life.

If this isn't enough for you, then how about some totally free multiplayer action? To celebrate the release of Episodes From Liberty City, Rockstar staff, and Henry Santos Jeter from New York band, Aventura, will be taking on all comers on Xbox Live over the weekend (Oct 30 -Nov 1). Access will be free to anyone playing GTAIV, The Lost And Damned or The Ballad Of Gay Tony, even if you're on Silver XBL membership.

To get in on the action, take a look at the schedule below and take to the streets of Liberty City and give them pesky developers some lovin', GTA-style.

Schedule:

Friday, October 30:  5 - 10pm ET: Game with Developers session featuring members of the Rockstar North team.
