[QUOTE="xsubtownerx"]5 minutes isn't long, but how much space does this install take up? I mean this 40gig PS3 is gonna fill up pretty fast if devs keep forcing installs on Ps3 owners.xsubtownerx

And the DL content for GTA4 takes no room or time whatsoever. :roll:

I forgot PS3 had no DLC of their own with other games.. You just owned yourself, dude.

Are cows the ones complaining about installing and taking room on the HDD? No, I didn't think so.

Why download a Video when you can download the GTA game itself.....during those 5 long minutes...... MS security is horrible..... MS 360 still have high attach rates which is great.......but still they need to work on the security.....

Ill stick with the ps3 version thank you. Ive already played the game at my mate who has it leaked, and the 360 version is quite slow, the backgrounds take a while to load like Saints Row, quite a bit of slow downs, and other problems.RazMaTaz-1

U need proof u played both versions

They're taking cheap shots because they can't make customers install, HDD is not standard. Oh that's a good thing Xbox fans say? Yeah that's why Gta developer just complained about it.

How do core and arcade owners download a video by the way? Oh you have to pay $100 for 20gb HDD?

Both on numerous occasions...

But this is stupid. People could easily counter and say I could beat a few games in the time it takes to get my xbox back from it being fixed.

The only reason there's no install for 360 is because not all 360 have a HDD. I much rather install the game and have it running better.

Steal your first dozen or so cars and test out the improved vehicle handling?

·Check out the cool features on your mobile phone?

Rack up a 5 Star Wanted Rating?

Have a blast of your first MP game on Xbox LIVE?

Ditch the tracksuit chic and buy some new clothes?

Unlock your first GTA IV Achievement and boost your Gamerscore?

Big Deal or no?

Meh, MS deals a lot of cheap shots nowadays. Personally, I take cheap shots as a sign of jealousy from the other person :)

i notice there are some real haters out there :) taking every little thing as an excuse to bash the PS3... I dont and wont mind having to install a 5 - 10 minute game if I know I'll enjoy that game... 20 mins for DMC4 was a bit too much I admit, but come on if it doesnt bother most PS3 owners to have installations on their system, why should Xbox360 owners worry about it...

I dont care about RROD because I dont have an Xbox360, therefore its not my problem... same should be to xbox fans, they dont need installations, good for them...

we (ps3) owners cannot use RROD as a counter attack due to GTAIV being one of those huge time consuming games because not all Xbox360's get it, but then again go ask those poor guys who'll get RROD while ejoying GTAIV and having to wait 2-3 weeks to get it fixed and returned , if it wasn't better a 5 mins intallation rather than 3 weeks waiting for the console to be returned fixed !!!!

It has happened with other games, so it is a possibility.

The 360 could overheat in five minutes and burn your house down. GTA IV will be a bigger BOX killer than Halo3.

Well since playing the 360 for longer periods of time increases your chances of RROD id say the cows do have an arguement. GTA is gonna kill more 360's then halo.

personally i think the install is a good thing and ill be buying on the PS3. also its been stated over and over agin by site after site that PSN is more stable overall then Live. faster loading and stable online makes edges out achievments and DL content in my books. besides PSN will more then likely be getting Dl content as well, just not off the bat like 360.

Sony says that you can play and finish GTA4 + Uncharted while someone waits for replacement because of RRoD x360!!!

Be serious plz fanboyz!! I mean, in the end youll say me that PCs are inferior to all consoles because they need to install games? You remind me N64 vs PS some years ago where N64 fanboys said N64 was FAR better because it aint got any loading screens or loading at all....

So now about an install of 10minute, PS3 < X360 ?? Here we go again...Like N64 < PS because of no load screens? Laughable reason!!Since HD-dvd lost badly , MANY RRoD probs and PS3 started to outsell x360 i think talking about install vs no install is damage control or baby cry...

Its the only thing you can do MS right now? Your fans wants more serious answers from you.Like what will you do with RRoD , lower prices , outsell PS3 again , HD-dvd lost what will you do from now on and things like that. To claim youre better because some installs.... QQ MS QQ!!!

Doesnt bother me at all to install. Im used to it. I would rather have an install and have less load times then constantly streaming from a disc.

Thx to MS GTA was probably held back a bit.

While i agree it's kind of cheap of M$ to do that, I'm still buying it on PS3. Plus its a 5 minute install not going to make a huge difference.

But isn't there a purpose to downloading/installing in the beginning that will benefit the PS3 version when you start playing? (ie fasterloads or something)

So many things wrong with what you just said. Since when is it NORMAL to install games on a CONSOLE!?!? Because Sony says it should be done that way? BS to that.

P.S: You can beat Uncharted before the GTA4 install finishes.. :lol:

The Truth Hurts,

Its like that poor kid that got flamed because he added up all the loading screens on the 360 version of DMC4, and it ended up being half the length of the PS3 install time.

The installs are annoying, not pointing them out does not mean they don't exist.

An install time is hardly anything to even laugh about. It's 5 minutes. 5 minutes, big deal. I mean, take all the PS3 cheap shots you want, but seriously, is 5 minutes even worth trying about?
