haha yeah i've thought about getting a ps3 since most of my "internet buddies" has ps3's.. but almost all my real life friends have 360 so i think about going with that i think i might order 360 already today, i need it

[pilferk]

I've been waffling on getting it, or waiting on it.

I'm in the middle of like 4 or 5 different games at the moment...

But I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to pick it up this weekend.

And I have both a PS3 and an Xbox 360.  I think I'm gonna pick up the PS3 version as I hear that the graphics are just a tad better.

that's a small tad i think check this out, it's a head to head comparison with a dude telling the small differences http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFLkArK3c7s

mommy's telling me i can't afford it might visit my friend later

Oh, for sure...it's a very small difference.

But EVERYTHING else being equal...and given the fact I have both a 360 and a PS3....I figure I'll go with the version that's considered "better", even if it' just by a small tad.

Also, my PS3 is hooked up via HDMI.....my 360 via component (it's an early rev of the console...about 2 or 3 months after launch...so no HDMI on it).  Again, a small advantage but an advantage all the same.

Anyone know if GTA:IV supports the new dualshock for the PS3 (as in, is there rumble?).  Just wondering.

[mrlee]

ps3 version is best.

why?

xbox 360 has some frame rate issues with the game. And the online game is very much a big fun factor, with xbox360 your gonna have to pay for xbox live and get milked, whereas on ps3 online play is FREE

But also remember........Xbox360 is going to have some exclusive downloadable add-on missions and such coming out in the next month(s) that PS3 isn't going to.

yeah it's included plus sixaxis support.

[GNRreunioneventually]

are they gonna make it for PS2?

[w.axl.rose]

i doubt it

Well, I came home last night to find that I had the decision made for me.

My wife and I had been talking about picking up a new Sony video camera.  My oldest has just started T-ball, and the school funtions are starting....and our old Canon Hi-8 camera is a handful and a half...not to mention a pain in the kiester to transfer to DVD.

So...you're asking what this has to do with GTA IV?

She decided to pick up the camera, yesterday, at circuit city.  Decent sale going on and we had a 10% off coupon, to boot.  While there...she decided to pick up GTA IV for PS3 for me. 

I played for a few hours last night....and I'm sucked in but good.

the hardest part to get used to is the car driving and the aiming IMO, also the camera view while driving is fucking with me sometimes but you get used to it pretty quick anyway

Yeah, like all of these types of games...I find the camera can get wonky sometimes and screw things up.

The aiming and driving thing drives me batty sometimes.  Sometimes it's super easy....again, I think the camera angle that you "get" effects how much adjustment you have to make, and thus how hard it becomes.

Anyone know when it is to come out on PC, or is it already?

[Atillla]

i doubt it

What about PS1 and the Sega Saturn?







 

[DarkFairy]

we bought it yesterday and husband's obsessed with it, even though it's his first own GTA (we have xbox 360)

Now he drives like a maniac in reality too
