Although i never was a big fan of GTA ( i guess there really is something wrong with me) but i just couldn't help myself but wondering about when GTA 4 will be released which system will be the better version? the PS one or the Xbox one?I didn't wanted to say this in any PS or Xbox forums because i knew that it would attract fanboys instantly but i just can't help but ask that question. Mind you it really doesn't affect me about which version will be better of if they will be equal. Since Rockstar expressed troubles with development on both systems, I just hope it is equal on all platforms...

360 is the only version with exclusive content.

It's ironic that you took this to system wars. I'll go out on a limb and say fanboys are worse here than on their respective console's boards.

Anyway, until the PS3 has DLC confirmed it will probably be the 360 unless the PS3 version runs much better. We haven't even seen the PS3 version yet from what I know so it is too early to say.

The 360 will probably have LIVE features and use that with music, I heard a rumor they were going to use the real radio for the 360. Anyway it will just depend on how much better thegraphics are on the PS3 version compared to the extra content on the 360 version.

No idea. R* have expressed troubles with both versions.

This "exclusive" content deal should be interesting. Just to recap, every GTA game that R* has made since GTAIII was called "exclusive"...until they announced it for other systems. But with MS throwing alot of cash their way, dunno about this DLC.

It bugs me that they announced the content on day one but don't wanna just put it in the game already, so they can charge us more later.

They're going to be nearly the same. Only fanboys obsessed with their favorite mega corporation's piece of plastic and metal winning some glorified "console" war are going to make a big deal about whatever small differences there are.

Get the version that has the controler you're most comfortable with. The games should be identicle. As for the DLC, if R* wanted the stuff in the game, it would be in the final game.

I do like metal and plastic. Cobalt and Nomex® FTW!

I do think they will be the same since they are being developed at the same time.

Brilliant! You don't want to attract fanboys, so you post this on System Wars. You should have tried GGD. Anyways, the 360 version has extra content which should make it the better option.

How should we know which version is better? xbox fanboys say their version is better due to exclusive content, but you have to pay more money for that stuff and we have no idea what it is or if its any good. PS3 fanboys will say their version is better because of the hard drive's usefulness in open world streaming, but we have no idea if that is the case. In the end, it'll just be a day at the bs festival, with everyone talking but no one making any sense.

Probably the same, but the 360 has more content so I think it is the better option.

I am guessnig they will be almost identical. Only thing that matters IMO are the controls now, and it seems to use dual analogue + trigger for combat so 360 should be good for this. Also, the people complaining about the graphics are really stupid; this can't pre render everything, it's not slow paced; just look back at san andreas and see how much better this looks.

The games will likely look the same and play the same. Everything technical will be the same, the artistic stuff will be the game, but the 360 gets extra DLC. Thats the only difference, but it definately swings the 360 to be the best way to experience it for a GTA fan.

Yeah I guess DLC shouldn't be brought up if you are simply straight up comparing the two. Either way like I said we haven't been told we are looking at the PS3 version so it is too early to say.

The PS3 has an HDD, which should help greatly with this type of game, but until the game comes out we will never know.

PS3 version in every area except the DLC...... which I really don't understand why you all pretend like it's a big deal. You're just going to be paying like $15 for some stupid extra missions that won't have anything to do with the main game.

OK this is probably a stupid question but why are the cows making such a big deal out of the HDD advantage of the PS3?

the PS2 had no HDD at all butt these games still kicked but so why is it going to be such a problem now

To be honest, I'm getting really tired of the GTA formula being done over and over again, and probably won't pick it up when it comes out. But I would have to go with the 360 because of its exclusive content.

The PS3 version will have all that to and likely shorter load times due to a dedicated harddrive.

360 is the only version with exclusive content.Eltroz

only reason, its like CoD4 and AC, they'll look the same, only by ripping apart things by screen by screen u'll be able to tell and even then thats not much.

i was reading through this topic thinking 'wow everyone seems to be getting along with no fanboys in sight!' then you came along and destroyed the harmoney, nice one!

personally i think they will both be the same, some people will try and use the gametrailers comparison to say hey look theres an extra blade of grass over their etc but they will both be great for each console.

I remember reading something about DVD limiting them slightly and the ps3's cell to be difficult to program for or something but i dont think i ever read anywhere about downgrades due ot lack of HDD, care to show me where it said that?

Yeah you are right on that though. But again i probably would have ben modded for that post if i would have posted it in any particular console forums. (if i am correct). I once ranted on Itgakai's decision to stick with Xbox and they locked the forum.

It's not like we get the DLC as soon as we buy the game. The retail games in stores should be the same. (I don't know why they wouldn't be) We'll still have to pay for the exclusive content though. It's not like we get extra stuff when we buy the 360 version. Yet a lot of lemmings act as if we do. We just get the option to buy this stuff if we want it. But like i said earlier, if R* wanted the content in the game, it would be in the game. To some fans the Oblivion stuff was really cool, but many couldn't care less. And the two main expansions eventually came to PS3 anyways.

Enjoy paying extra for all the stuff PC guys are getting for free. So far, every console GTA release has followed with the PC one exactly 6 months later. This time there'll be some consoles with muscle behind them for once, but according to the comments in this thread both are having trouble running the game well anyway. :)
