GTA IV - Xbox 360 vs PS3

360.

Primarily because it's the only next-gen console I own.

[QUOTE="ReverseCycology"]

Damn look at this Limited Edited GTA IV Xbox 360 Elite, it looks good with that shiny finish. The GTA IV 360 take over has begun.

rockstar said that a while ago.

Probably from here?

Which version will you buy and why?

Me? Xbox 360 version because:

1: Should be the Superior version no doubt. All the trailers, screens, most live demos shown by Rockstar North are all played on Xbox 360.

2: Episodic Content- Each Episode size of GTA VC and GTA SA...damn...its like PS3 will miss 2nd and 3rd mini-sequel of this massive game.

3: I like the 360 controller better (personal preference, not much of an argument)

This game has been in the works for years. Do you really think they can roll out something the size of SA in 6 months (the time of first downloadable cont)?

Honestly don't kid yourself like that, you'll only be hurt.

You can say what you want, but we do not truly know how long this has been in the works, there are many links that say the size of the DL content, you can try dig up a link to disprove it if you wish, but you'll only be hurt.

Remember GTA IV was suppose to be already out since last year but because of the PS3 they delayed it. So these content is closer than we think.

But the size of SA? Come on live in the real world..

The Exclusive DLC of GTA IV on the 360 are Episodes, IE, Expansions, I can easily see this happening, not to mention, MS lifted the size limit for this so the size can be as big as R* / MS want it to be.

Dont get me worong i'll buy it for the 360 above my PS3 but due to DLC but to expect a new game the size of SA is wishfull thinking (or cleaver MS hype) my freind.

Like I said, many sites have gone on record saying what the size of them are going to be, than you come in here with no facts or links to back up your side of this except "Its wishfull thinking", who am I, and others gonna believe, you, or sites including interviews from MS themselves saying this stuff?

I cant argue with someone so blind to reality or anything MS say. Have fun dreaming of a DLC the size of SA. I know I wont be the one sulking when details are realised.

Oh, now insulting people, so mature, like I said, take the word of some random forum poster or the HUGE corporations that are making this content? Hmm, who ever shall I believe....

EDIT: BTW, I don't even plan on buying this game, so nothing you've said even effects me.

I think you are not understanding my point. MS are the only people to say it will be the size of SA. Rockstar have not said that. Unless you cant provide a link from rockstar I stand by this.

MS have a vested interest to the sum of $50M to hype the DLC. Hype or common sense. Your choice.

Also i apologise of i insulted you it was not my intent.

"It was f***ing enormous," says Houser. "You had the Catskills, the Adirondacks...I'd only been to the Adirondacks once---it took me six hours to get there. It's f***ing miles away."

It goes on to say the original concept changed to a more densly packed city than a spread out world but if they do have a big map planned as a dl then at least some of the work for it is already done and you know how people like to not throw away something there has been money put into already.

Even if 360 did San Andreas and Vice City exclusive it wouldnt be through DLC becuase not everyone has XBL :lol:

VP of Rockstar himself said it

"But it's "an experiment" they're quick to add. Right now Rockstar doesn't seem sure that there are enough users with access to online content on the 360 to make it worthwhile for them to continue pumping out episodes."

And no not everyone with a 360 has XBL.

Buying the PS3 version because:

1. Confirmed by take-two that it has slightly better graphics8)

2. It may not have the exclusive content, but it may get it in the future

3. I don't have both systems yet but buying PS3 later this march. I don't like the 360.

4. I've been used to Sony's controller...:D

It will be the same game untill the DLC is released, then Lems can say how awesome it is, and claim ownage, while cows will act like they dont care.

For me im getting the ps3 version because I only have a ps3, even if i did own a 360, still ps3.

apparently choosing the ps3 version makes you a fanboy to some lemmings :roll:, i fail too see how since its your choice watever you go withMiss_Wacy

It does make you non-perspicacious if you pick a version because "i have the other games on this console" or whatever.

Oh yeah, getting it for 360.
DLC
Custom soundtracks
Prefer the controller
Achievements and that it's apparently the lead platform are minor incentives that don't hurt.

jmdude

ps3 for me as i don't have a 360, but even if i had one (And i will get one at some point) id still take the ps3 version because i wont pay for the online and i don't care about the DLC, wouldn't get the DLC even if it was on ps3.Tykain

same here. i probably won't even finish all missions in GTA IV like i did in GTA III so there's no need for DLC for me.

I think that thats going to fill up the 360's small 20GB HDD and its probably going to be MORE 30 dollars.

Even though I own both the PS3 and XBox 360, I've already pre-ordered the GTA IV Collectors Edition for the XBox 360.

Reasons?

1) The downloadable content of course. Why would I want to miss out on all the GTA IV goodness?

2) Most of my friends and family members have XBox 360, so playing online with them will be a breeze.

3) Wondering how much HDD GTA IV will end using on the PS3 version. Another 5GB? Yikes.

4) I like the 360's controller better and it has rumble. My PS3 controllers don't have rumble and I'm not getting Dual Shock 3 controllers anytime soon. Maybe later in the summer.
