ok, so MS paid for DLC so that means that we will get alot more then the ps3 version right? Or will they be the same? Secondly have they said how big the install is? Finally are there any framerate issues etc on either version, and was gta made for 360 then [ported to ps3 or were they just made together, and is 360 the best choice for this game?

1.The 360 will be getting EXCLUSIVE content(PS3 will get some dlc, but nothing 360 won't).

2. There is no install.

3. Neither versions are ports, but PS3 has grittier graphics and 360 has more vibrant colors.

Overall, I say get the 360 version(I have both consoles but the episodic content sold me over.

The install is only on the PS3, and I would choose the 360 version if you want the extra content and like achievements.

Not to sound like a fanboy but I love achievements, custom soundtrack options, and a reliable online service so I'm definately getting it for the Xbox 360.

There's no reason why you should buy the PS3 version over the 360 version, unless you don't have a 360. GTA 4 on the 360 will have more with the DLC and such. How it looks and performs I would guess is pretty identical on both systems.

Definately the 360 version since it has the downloadable content, achievements, Xbox Live and it just looks better to be quite honest. If you ask me I think GTA has a new home and it's the Xbox 360. It yes the 360's downloadable content will be wayyyy better than the PS3's downloadable content due to the fact that Microsoft paid money to Rockstar or whatever..
