360 Going to hold GTA:IV back?

We all know the PS3's Blu-Ray holds up to 50GB duel layer, but with DVD9, will 360 be holding PS3 GTA back from reaching it's full potential (ig: bigger map, more pedestrians,HD, sound) I'm just curious ;)

Considering that time and time again the 360 version of games on both systems looks and sometimes plays better the better question is will the PS3 hold GTA:IV back from its true potential.

No matter how you cut it GTA:IV will not be a bigger game overall content wise than Oblivion or Mass Effect, and both fit on a DVD9, even id the developers of the latter say just barely. Hell, even Crackdown streams a gigantic city nonstop with almost zero popup. No, the 360 won't be holding GTA:IV back in any way, IMO.

Do you know how much longer it would take Rockstar to even come close to filling up a Blu-Ray disc? You might as well expect a release more than another year and a half from now.

Mass Effect fits on a DVD-9, GTA will fit on a DVD-9. Mass Effect has over one hundred locations to explore, many which will be huge, some say even the size of Oblivion.

Maybe four or five years from now in the start of the next generation will a new disc format be needed.

If the developers felt that DVD-9 would limit them then they would not have brought it to the Xbox 360 in the first place.

I heard a rumor that the extra content will already be installed on the PS3 version because of the extra space, is this true? if so, im definantly getting the PS3 version.

I have to disagree with you big time, In Vice City, the area was so small that it felt like i was restrained all the time, and with the loading screens between islands, that just killed it.  But in SA, i felt more free, especially without the loading screens. IMO, bigger is better, more freedom, more fun.

Ironic, considering how much the PS2 held the GTA series back last gen. My guess is no though. No CGI in the GTA series. AfterShafter

So the new GTA:IV trailer will be strictly gameplay? or just run off of the game engine?

Yes of course. I'm guessing you have proof of this right? :roll:

Wait, so you're saying that I don't know what I'm talking about... by asking a question rather than making a statement... Please do me a favor and don't post in my threads again, you just embarrass yourself, and I pity you, because you... are you ;)

STRICTLY opinion. But for me, Vice City had a killer sound track, whereas San An's was bleh. And the comedy was a little more funny in VC, and Tommy...

Tomy was a true badass.

I think content wise the PS3 version could have a lot more, however it is questionable as to whether Rockstar is willing to put a lot more stuff into the game. I think overall you will find that even if the games have the exact same content, the PS3 will probably render the game a bit better and it will have uncompressed data depending on the games size.DSgamer64

Next Gen hot coffee anyone? :lol:
