XBOX360 would be the smart choice with the HUGE DLC on it's way. Apart from that ... eh, they're the same minus the install

I would reccommend the 360 version because of the exclusive DLC.

360 version, and DLC is a whole different story.

The game is great, don't play it with too many high expectations and you should really enjoy it.

360 version. Its not as blurry, has a more stable framerate and has big DLC on the way too.

Multiplatform games are generally developed for 360 then ported to PS3 and/or PC. SO the 360 version will always look the best, with the exception of Oblivion (but the PS3 version does have some framerate problems).

Not PC. It's buggy and needs a monster PC. Get it for 360 or PS3. Although, I wouldn't get it at all.

Xbox360:

  • Exclusive DLC
  • Native HD resolution, unlike the PS3 version

I own both consoles and bought the Xbox360 version :)

360 version has DLC and is a little better overall. Also, if you want to play multiplayer in it... well yeah, I think the 360 usually has the edge when it comes to multiplayer.

if you have the money for GTA IV, let alone enough for a PS3, a PC, and a 360, you should hopefully have enough money to spend for a better game. the 360 version is the only one I'd recommend, but whichever one your friends have would be the one to get.

Get the 360 version cause you'll be getting some DLC from that version. I'd recommend the PC version if it wasn't so badly optimized.

360 version looks much better. Blur filters piss me off to no end (looking at you PS3 Bioshock). Funny enough, my friends say the cars control much better on the PS3 version though.

If they fix the PC version, that would be the version to get, mods, conversions, total conversions are really great on a GTA game on PC, however the next best thing would be 360, I played it on the 360, apart from so FPS dips it was pretty good.

The 360 version does offer DLC but there is a high chance you'll find the game overrated and not worthwhile to spend an additional $20 bucks.

None really, it's not worth it. But if you have to, PS3 without a doubt. Looks better and plays better (control-wise, that is).

how does it look better i have played both version to algonquin they r the same and as far as plays better that is just a controller preference!

as for as your question goes if u are buying it now and would be interested in dlc which will be $20 then the 360 version other than that it doesnt matter ps3 version has trophies! but the 360 community is larger just giving u the facts but it's up 2 u, i think the ps3 version has shorter load times but now that 360 has the installs it might be even shorter and have a better draw distance! so up 2!
