On ‘Rockstar Friday’ between 12pm and 5pm, players will be able to take on the developers from Rockstar Games in multiplayer challenges across Grand Theft Auto IV, Max Payne 3, Red Dead Redemption and others.
Users will also be granted premium access to entertainment apps on Xbox Live, such as those from Sky, Netflix and YouTube, as well as Xbox Video.
