What system are you buying GTA4 for? I can't decide. Thought about buying it for 360 for achievements and so called extra content. But I don't want my box to crap out when I'm enjoying THIS game especially. And GTA was meant to be played on Playstation (and Playstation controller) since prior GTA's came out on PS1 and PS2. Can't decide.

Its a very tough decision for Multiconsole owners. HEre are the facts about both: \

360 version:

More Vibrant Colors

Exclusive DLC down the line.

More Aliasing Problems.

PS3 version:

Warmer Color Pallete

Better Aliasing

No officaly Announced DLC untill 09.

So it mainly comes down to those factors. Acheivements are personal opinon. Both run at the same FPS speed and both will play the same.

Vibrant colors is a big point for me. Halo graphics > COD4 graphics. But aliasing is big too.

My bad, should have said everyone except gears of war. Because that's probably what it'll be.

360. I have a hunch the PS3 version may end up having problems or something.

I'm still not sure. I've played all past GTAs on PS consoles, but that exclusive content is looking appealing. Right now, its 60% PS3, 40% 360.

i am undecided. i am leaning towards 360 because of the episodic content but the system itself is so loud compared to my ps3. it sounds like a jet is taking off in my living room. well, not that loud, but the system sound is very noticable.

Ps3, I don't have XBL so to play the online it will have to be ps3. They both get DLC but i probably won't get it because I have never/never will care about DLC for any game

Simple on the PS3, ontroller preference and free online, plus like you don't like playing mulitplayers on the 360 because I don't want to over work it.

Even though I think of my PS3 as a baby I'm constantly overworking it, but it can handle it.;)

afraid can't say the same for my 360:(
