Stand up for what you believe; Even if you stand alone.

The XBOX 360 seems to be clearer while the PS3 makes me feel like I need glasses because of the 'blurred' vision.  Personally I'm waiting for the PC version but I thought I'd let anyone know who hasn't YET bought the game and has both systems.

I'm actually kind of surprised the graphics look better in XBOX.  I figured the technology for the 360 was slightly more dated and sony has said something like 'no new console for ten years' or something after PS3 because it's supposed to be so superior it will hold up so long.  I don't know - I'm not really a console gamer, but it really doesn't look to me as if the PS3 can hold up so well for 10 years if Microsoft decides to launch some crazy new '720' system in like five years with top of the line tech...

For the Horde!

I bought an Xbox 360 just for this game.  I was a little worried that the 360 might not have the horse-power to satisfy a hardcore PC gamer like myself, but I'm pretty happy with GTA IV's visuals.  Though I'm sure that the eventual PC version will be superior, with longer draw distances etc, but I can't complain.

I haven't played the PS3 version so I can't comment on that.

GTA delivers something so very few developers (particularly PC developers) seem to understand, and that is that style is more important than technical bells and whistles.  GTA could even be considered slightly cartoony (though that's really an unfair description), because the art in the game is beautifully drawn... it's actually art.

Because of this, I really don't expect the difference between the PS3 and the Xbox 360 version to be anything to worry about.

Well you got to know man, just because a console is better than another when it comes to technology, that's just the console. Not all games take hold of the potential of the console. That's the developer's choice with that one. I mean Armored Core 4 looked better on X360 than the PS3 too.
