Like CoD4, Assassins Creed, and Orange Box etc etc. This will sell far more copies on the 360.
In fact you would have to be an idiot to get the PS3 version. With exclusive content available for 360 owners.

I really don't think it will matter for the vast majority of people who don't read gaming news and don't know about it anyway, especially to those who still equate the PlayStation brand to gaming and haven't picked up a console yet. A lot of PS2 owners, maybe?

Have have both consoles and I will get it on the PS3.
GTA has always been a PS game and for and a lot of others it will stay that way.
The PS brand made GTA huge. Xbox brand has done nothing for the series to make it what it is today.

The only idiots are you fake Meus and Chris_GTR1.
Why do you call other people idiots when all they are saying is that they are getting the PS3 version.
You just have to realize that not everyone has a 360 or wants one for that matter except for me i only got a 360 so i could play the exclusive games that are on it and all the multi-platform games that i buy are all for the PS3 including GTA4 and i don't care for the exclusive content ether.

Alvadr and others. You should do yourself a favour and buy a 360. Then you would have a far better library of games to choose from.
Not only that you will have better multiplatform titles such as CoD4, Assassins Creed and Orange box. The PS3 versions of all these games and more are unplayable because of framerate, loading times, and screen tearing problems.
This is not the fault of developers. It is the fault of Sony for making such badly designed hardware and development tools. It is also the reason why GTA IV has been delayed.
This is not an opinion. This is fact. If you can't see the difference you are an idiot.

RROD is an urban myth it has affected no more than 5% of 360 owners. The problem is Microsoft not properly fixing machines that do break down.

Nobody is an idiot for getting one version or the other. The "exclusive" downloadable content you would have to pay extra anyway, considering if you'd even want to pay for something that should have came with the game for 60 big ones.

I think it will be. By at least another week or so.
This seems to be the trend as of late by developers, publishers, and manufactures. They're creating hype to expand the market tremendously by 2009.
My two cents.

because u can swim?
because u can fly planes and skydive?
because it was the biggest open world GTA?
because there was no loading whatsoever between cities?
because u can customize thee character?
because it had better aiming than the previous 2 GTAs?
because u can improve your characters stats and affects how he looks?
because u can recruit people, have them ride in your car and have turf wars?

I feel the PS3 version will sale more because this is one of many games that will move PS2 users to the next console and I've seen the screen shots the PS3 looks so much better than the 360 version.
Hell...I only see it mentioned more on the PS3 than the 360 which tells you already which will be the better version.
Ever since Burnout Paradise, COD4, Assassins Creed, and GRAW2 came out multi platform games have been looking better off of the PS3.
The proofs there just have to look around and find it.

Speaking to MTV's multiplayer blog, Rockstar's Jeronimo Barrera said: "It's really no surprise to anybody that the PS3 was definitely a contributing factor to that." Now though, he says, "we're neck and neck".
"Back then that was something we were taking into account. That's not to say there's anything wrong with the PS3 version. It's awesome. They're both identical."

I have a 360 and PS3, yet I'm getting the PS3 version. This game deserves to be played with the Playstation controller, just as well as Devil May Cry 4.
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't dare play Halo 3 on a PS controller either, that thing belongs on a xbox controller.

25 - PS3 will run the show
HELL YEAH! This is a MUST BUY DAY ONE! And fortunately it'll sell even more on PS3. You see, GTA is a Playstation franchise. GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas were ALL on the XBOX. Yet, it only accounted for 6% of the global sales. GTA is a Playstation brand and that ain't gon change with MS's money.
Long live GTA.

P.S. Expect an announcement for GTA 4 PS3 exclusive content after the Xflop version..flops.
