This post is not intended to annoy Xbox 360 fans, but just to reasure Playstation fans that they are not getting a crappy port.
According to IGN, the Playstation 3 version of Grand Theft Auto IV looks and plays better.
“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.”
Thats not to say the 360 version is bad….
“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.”
So if your more of a graphics person and want a cleaner looking game with less pop ups, get the PS3 version! If you want DLC get the 360 version! Theres no doubt DLC will come out for the PS3 as well, probably some time after the 360 get it. Oh and remember, don’t shoot the messenger!
