PS3 and Xbox you can go for hours. You can get other games on Wii too you know! Many of the mainstream games that you can get lost in for hours/days/months, but most have a more interesting and involving way of controlling the game play. I am just over the multitude of complicated, multi-button commands needed for many Xbox/Playstation games.

AND "Your choice of any XBOX 360 Game available in store." Not so hard a decision anymore is it!!!Anyone heard of the 'Premium' pack before? from what I can gather it's the 20gb hdd one, plus their giving a game too!?seems too good to be true!!

I don't care if the xbox version runs at 1080, I haven't had the pleasure of seeing both version but IGN have and they have come to that conclusion. No disrespect but I'd rather take their word over yours...There are plenty of comparisons on the net and the xbox version wins all of them. illusionzzz said: The only game I have every played on a PS3 that has had to install anything (not including game sortware patches), is GTA IV, and apparently that was to load textures to minimise "pop in".Yeah it installs to hd because the game constantly loads new data for the world environment as the player moves through it. On the PS3 it could not do it from the blu ray drive because it is too slow. Wonder why it takes so long to install games on the HD?

Sad but true.Did I mention xbox Upscales to 1080p and does not play it natively, I can guarantee the difference is extremely noticeable.Cheers,Brett Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44938-xbox-360-vs-ps3/page/6/#findComment-682696 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let you know what the uncensored overseas version says when it arrives soon but surely this is illegal printing a resolution it cant display as this is one of the key things I look for when buying a game?I dont think I've seen a game for the ps3 with that piss poor resolution yet, very poor effort on rockstar's behalf if its true! farking choice game though.
