       In that 10-page article it stated that there will be a upcoming demo for the xbox 360 but said nothing about one for the PS3. Is it easier to put demos on xbox live or what? Id appreciate it if someone could post the link to the article.

Thats fine if you have both like me, but c'mon GTA, it was born for the PS and its should be on the PS3 first.

thats weak. That seems to be a common case though, it seems like the 360 gets all the demos and ps3 gets only a select few...

Don't you know the purpose of a demo ? Not everyone played GTA and many will liek to try before buying without paying.

True but i disagree GTA4 is the most hyped game for the next gen. People will just buy it for the name. Seriously how many people havent heard of GTA its prolly one of the most controversial games in history.And a Demo? I ve never heard of R* releasing playable demos for any GTA let alone this one, this whole thing doesn't sound right.

Demos hardly existed last gen but this gen is different. Sorry that you miss the purpose of a demo. i personally never download them but many people like to try out games before they buy.

Probably because 360 is more popular than PS3.  They know it sold more than PS3, so release teh demo on 360 so more peopel can play it, so more peopel will probabyl buy it.  I do think it should be for both though.

theres nothing that says anything about releasing a demo to the public. the people from Game informer got to play it so they could right a review. i highly doubt there will be a demo theres never been a gta demo on a console i doubt there will even be one.

360 is more popular than PS3, you have to admit that.  Its selling more, the games are going to it, people want it more.

Im not trashing PS3, as i like PS3 better.  But i'm being realistic, 360 is selling ore, more games, more popular, for now at least.

Yeah, in the 10 page review they had, they said the demo they got was running on a 360, not that the first and only one would be for 360.

There's these things called magazines, and sometimes they put things in these magazines...sometimes it's only a perfume sample but sometimes it's a disc.  And if you get the right magazine at the right time of year there's demos on this disc.  Alot of people have been trying to keep this secret under wraps for a long time, but I'm tired of not saying anything so not the secrets out...

....probably going to have to move now, but it was worth it.
