If you don't want any chance of RROD, then sure get the PS3 version.

If you fear RROD, PS3 is the natural choice.

Get it for 360. The PS3 version is a 360 port.

a fear of rrod is just stupid. and certainly not enough of a reason to bypass the DLC that is exclusive to the 360

"For those wanting to know which version looks better, the edge goes to the PS3. The textures and framerate are comparable,but the PS3 has far less pop-in. The 360 has richer colors, but the PS3 has better anti-aliasing making it look a little cleaner. Because GTA IV can preload onto the PS3 hard drive, the in-game loads are faster. Don't worry Xbox owners, the load times are rarely more than 30 seconds and don't occur very often. The slight visual edge goes to PS3, but the 360 is no slouch. Either version will do you proud."

I'm pretty sure you can preload it onto your 360's HDD too.. It's just that it's an option isntead of a requirement.

I'll be getting the 360 version for the extra content, and so I don't have to buy rumble.

If you get GTA IV for the PS3 because you read the graphics will be slightly better, I can understand, but RROD is a reason not to get a console, not whether to buy a game. At least RROD is covered for 3 years, and I'm beginning to doubt it's on the newer consoles; my 360 doesn't even get hot. I'll consider getting another PS3 when they fix their "yellow light of death" problem.

And the extra DLC for the 360 should make this choice easy, jeez.

Clearly get the PS3 version due to it's graphical edge, faster loading times, and less popups (Sarcasm meter should be ringing) Although that is what IGN said... Seriously, get the it for the console you like the most. 360... By all means. PS3... Ditto. They're 99.9 percent the same, and unless you're a fanboy, you will not notice the difference. If I only owned a PS3 or a 360, I would be very happy right now because it wouldn't matter which version to get. There both gonna be fantastic.

Xbox 360 for DLC and the online play; I'll take that over a miniscule difference in visuals thank you very much.

Yes. RROD still exists. Probs will be solved by jasper chipset which is due for release this summer. Speculatory, but RROD is caused by overheating. So playing GTA4 constantly for a lengthy period of time may increase it's liklihood, but I am just speculating.

Wasn't it actually announced for the PS3 exclusively first, then it was decided that the Xbox 360 would get a version as well?
