It's not powerful enough, and the biggest thing is it still uses the DVD(PS3 uses Blu-Ray).

This isn't a knock on the XBOX 360, it's just the truth, and Rockstar has already said it.

Rockstar is forced to dumb down the game so that both games will be at near the same level(even though the PS3 version will probably be better).

It sucks that it still isn't exclusive because the game would no doubt be better if it was exclusive to the PS3.

The cool thing about Unreal Tournament 3 is that the PS3 version is going to get all the great content. Epic isn't going to dumb downt he PS3 version so they'll be similar. The 360 version is going to have less content.

That content will most likely be garbage, and nobody will probably care about it, especially since most people never finish the game.

Not to mention you'll have to pay like 20 bucks for it.

GTA is the one of the few game series that everyone I know IRL has finished it. And if its great content, I am more than willing to pay for it.

This man speak the truth. This is almost as overdone as XBL price arguments.

My favorite is the "PS3 costs less than 360" threads. They still seem to pop up every other day or so.

Way to ignore the exclusive downloadable content on 360 TC.

The Xbox 360 may be "holding GTA 4 back" but the PS3 also presents enormous challenges for Rockstar to overcome.

"To be honest with you we haven't solved all those riddles yet." The difficulties aren't limited to working on Microsoft's box, as Houser explains that "both have enormous challenges" and that "both have their own particular pleasures and pains".

Next time, before you start to think that the Xbox 360 is the only one holding GTA 4 back, at least have all your facts straight.

I think that the 360 has also held back Genji, Lair, Motorstorm, Formula one: Championship edition, Rfom and Full Auto 2 from reaching their full potential.

Damn you 360!!!

That was stupid becuase it didn't even have anything to do with what we're talking about. GTA is going to have like 100+ hours of content on it.

All of the GTA 3 trilogy made it onto DVD. Mass Effect made it on to DVD. Oblivion made it onto DVD. GTA 4 can make it onto DVD.

If anything, all consoles hold games back, as each system has strengths and weaknesses that negatively affect multi-plats.

It was from the same interview. An interview with UK PSM. Wonder why they chose to play that aspect up and downplay the "both holding them back" part...

They also said PS3's memory issues are holding it back as well.

BTW, all the trailers and images we've seen of the game so far have been the 360 version. Explain that.

They started development on the 360 version first.

PS3 version will still be better in the end though.

Dude, it's as plain as can be. Dan Houser, the creative VP at Rockstar said that BOTH systems have their own respective problems.

At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what you THINK is the case here. He actually works for the company making the game in question. I think I'll take his word over yours any day.

They started development on the 360 version first.

PS3 version will still be better in the end though.

Wrong again. GTA4 was gonna be a PS3 timed exclusive. So it was developed for PS3 first.
