"and xbox 360 well they use hd dvd thats 20gb if i remember correctly so that means more compression and less power they may town down the physics part of the game on xbox 360 and the graphics a tad,,,"

Not all xbox 360 has HD-DVD, HD-dvd is only sold as an add-on drive. And since Blu-ray won the market It wouldn't be surprising if they stopped selling them. The bigger the storage is on a Dvd the less compression will be required from the game manufacturers, therefore this could translate to better loading times. Graphics has nothing to do with the compression of data on games; Only movies. I think that 20gb is more than enough for that game. Seeing as they take into account the storage they have available, in this case it will be the max capacity of blu-ray since all PS3's come equipped with it or the max capacity of DVD-R DL (8.5gb) which all xbox360's can read.


"HERES WAT U DO THE PS3 VERSION COSE PS3 UTILIZES DX10
YOU PORT THAT VERSION TO WINDOWS VISTA FOR PC
AND PORT THE XBOX360 VERSION THAT UTILIZES DX 9 TO WINDOWS XP"

I don't know where you've read that any console can utilize DX10. DX10 was developed after both the PS3 and Xbox 360 arrived to the market. The PS3 does NOT use DX10; The Ps3's gpu architecture is a pre-existing modified 7800 gpu (as I recall) which suffers from the nvidia 7 series line inability to utilize true HDR while Anti-Aliasing is on.

Although it is actually easier to port an Xbox 360 coded game to the Pc, since they utilize a modified DX9 version to code for the 360; thus making it easier and faster to do so than in the PS3. However this doesn't guarantee a good port at all.

With all that cleared, I can state that times like this I wish I had a console. GTA IV looks to be a terrific game, although I've never liked any of the other ones mainly because of the graphics and lots of bugs.
All I can do is hope that it comes to PC. In the meantime I'll keep playing TF2, Crysis, Guild Wars and hopefully Battlefield Heroes.

Man! if only this game shows up in PC , me and all my friends gonna running into it,screaming! jumping! and falling dude!

Can I ask GTA IV to be released in PC dude!

i want it on PC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please!!!!!!!!
i can wait to play it on my PC

may i remind you all that new games espically gta 4 with physics and graphic engines and the main game engine require alot more programing that older games gta 4 alone has 130 programmers working on it 130 and they have 100 days to work on the game which they have recently stated to have gta 4 out after the 100 day mark

also the amount of compression these days on disk is alot more than it used to be like blu ray is massive 50gb if i remember correctly and that will have less compression on the cd and ps3 might aswell get the exclusive content aswell and remember the old eithernet port well playstation 3 has that aswell o yes playstation 3 can go online same as xbox 360

and xbox 360 well they use hd dvd thats 20gb if i remember correctly so that means more compression and less power they may town down the physics part of the game on xbox 360 and the graphics a tad

and you are all going nuts about o when will the game comes out well just remember 130 programmers plus this

you are on consoles xbox 360 and playstation 3 gta 4 will be polished to the max to insure there aint no glitches and **** unlike san andreas f**k the ammount of bugs and glitches in that game where horrible after rockstar made a sloppy port of it to pc

i want gta to come out to pc pc has everything the xbox 360 and ps 3 can have plus more

you go on about ya consoles when computers gave birth to them
AND ROCKSTAR F**K YOU IF GTA 4 DOESNT GO TO PC
AND MICROC**K I WILL NEVER BUY A ANY OF YOUR PRODUCTS AGAIN SAME WITH SONY

tho maybe rockstar is doing this all cose they are to noob to program for windows vista and windows xp

HERES WAT U DO THE PS3 VERSION COSE PS3 UTILIZES DX10
YOU PORT THAT VERSION TO WINDOWS VISTA FOR PC
AND PORT THE XBOX360 VERSION THAT UTILIZES DX 9 TO WINDOWS XP

Do people think GTA IV will be coming out with a PC platform or not?
That's the only way I'll buy it! If they don't come out with a PC version they will miss a whole lot of sales!

will be best gta game yet. it better be as good as gta sa, and the graphics should be great. if gta iv looks like saints row, than that's going to be one h***uva game!!!

LOL I think I will have to call in sick that day. I'm trying not to dwell on how long we still have to wait. Damnit.... I'm dwelling.

buying on ps3 when it comes out, that's for sure. I'll reserve my copy in advance at ebgames.

Damn, can't seem to find anywhere anything about it being released to the PC!

Awsome news!

Vraeth:
Wow, if the Metal Gear series went Multi there would be no stopping the 360. MGS4 is the only thing right now tempting me to buy a PS3.

HELL YEAH GTAIV IS GONNA KICK ASS!!!

yea finally i bet the grafics are gona be btter cauze the last games the grafics were crappy but it was good i have all of there games aw3some

Another PS3 exclusive bites the dust (Though to the suprise of no one, seeing as GTA:SA was multiplatform)

Now all that needs to happen is MGS 4 subsistence/substance on Xbox360 and we'll be all set.

is there not going to be any titles that are ps3 exclusives anymore? cant see any reason to buy a ps3..

wow this one better be better than the bull they were trying to shove down our throats you know gta liberty city stories vice city stories and maybe another one not worth mentioning but who knows maybe wll get luckey and itl be another gta san andreas

wow this one better be better than the bull they were trying to shove down our shirts you know gta liberty city stories vice city stories and maybe another one not worth mentioning but who knows maybe wll get luckey and itl be another gta san andreas

I personally think it'll be better on PS3 because of the specs.But X360 owners will be happy that they will have it to,and even on the same day.

New name for tnugent7. "Legend".

The market is so big now that 3 consoles can easily coexist, and it's just silly to think otherwise. This, however, will mean the PS3 will have a hard time getting up and running. I think that the overwhelmingly huge budgets it will take to make PS3 games look noticeably better than 360 games or have enough content to fill a Blu-Ray won't come until around 10 million consoles worth of market penetration. Until then, they'll be on a level playing field of gameplay, with only Sony's exclusives bridging the 200 dollar gap, along with overcoming the 360's ever-expanding library advantage. This means that these announcements are very bad things.

You all can say that 360 has a lackluster game line-up, but you'd have to ignore facts in light of the fantastic releases in all genres that came in 2006 and will come in 2007. I was initially a Wii supporter because the thing is so much fun (play any multiplayer game on it and please try to disagree) and I rooted for the underdog. Naturally, I was hoping for the PS3 to tank, which it didn't, really. Sony took a risk by putting an overpowered game machine on the market, and it is ahead of its time. Eventually, PS3 will put out games that are just stunning, but until then, let's face the fact that they aren't putting out enough games to bridge the gap. The reason Nintendo is doing better is because it made Wii Sports, which gave every customer (along with their $249.99-having friends) the opportunity to experience the kind of infectious fun that their system can produce the moment they open the box. PS3 was a fun machine that sold itself on power alone, and while has the capabilities to do extraordinary things, consumers see products, they don't see promises. Things like this damage the PS3, and there's no way around it.

U stupid gamers its nt gonna make it faster all it should have is a tiny bit better graphics. come on have you seen the 360's specs. Don't make me laugh losers

Since Saint's Row was so good...(!) I'm hoping that GTA:IV will be able to up to bring the genre back to being respectful again. As for not being PS3 exclusive: who cares? It just means my friends that have 360s can play it too! And I can laugh at them and their loading times! Joking.

''Well Its Gonna Be BEtter On the PS3 cuz Of the BLU-RAY DISK'' -
yeah, and 100 dolar more expansive. better pay 59 for 5 minutes of loading

Well Its Gonna Be BEtter On the PS3 cuz Of the BLU-RAY DISK

anybody knows when they have started the developing?

GTAIV will be sooo different on next gen consoles .... exclusively amazing it will be on both systems...wth different cars and many other things ..ofcourse at next generation platforms

i wish they will release GTAIV on pc, its better.

it has to be better than the last two and it has to be better in multiplayer

I hope it's better than the last two. It's needs improvement.

i cant wait for this to hit the 360. i'll be first in line.

I'm a GTA fan, but i prefer PC to other platforms and i hope that GTA 4 will come on PC.

suk to be peter moore, getting tattoos for every new game to come out. imagine the tattoo if he had to announce pokemon hahaha

I m a huge GTA and PlayStation fan and I m sorry to see that the GTA series is slipping away from the PS. I m just hoping that Rockstar will realize the superiority of the PS3 and will come to it s senses...Anyway, can t wait for the GTA IV

xbox360 did this with xbox becuz xbox needed to sell more thats it. rockstar was only sony until microsoft came and tried to buy it

bad news that gta4 will b on 360 cause of the smaller disc space. imagine what u cud fit on with just blu ray instead of a tiny dvd. NEXT GEN DISKS FOR NEXT GEN CONSOLES!!

This will be so amazing if you had the choice of real free roam and the ability to change over gangs and stuff. Even a character creator to make him you own would be great.

Personally, Cant Wait

The only thing I'm going to be worried about is having to own a 360 or a PS3.

imagine next years grand theft auto... bumpmapping.. soft shadows.. motion blur.. bloom.. HDR... 5.1 surround sound...high resolution textures... and the best: 4 times antialiasing on HD...

Gears of War - XBOX 360 - Need i say more?
