it's a side mission. Totally irrelevant to the main story.

Re: Let's talk about... Grand Theft Auto 4

Anyone heard anything about loading times or PS3 vs. 360? I remember hearing about no loading times after the initial load, but is that true for the PS3 also? Just wondering, cause all of the PS3 games i've played have LONG loading times in places, and I didn't know if GTAIV would have them.

Just trying to figure out which system I am going to get it for.

I heard no loading times in regards to 360 but I don't recall reading that with PS3. I could be way off though.

Rockstar said there is no load times for either the 360 or PS3, after the initial load sequence.

Thanks man. I'm thinking i'm going with the PS3 for GTA. One, because the system is much more reliable (don't want my 360 crapping out in the middle of the game) and two, I actually have my PS3 hooked to HD. I refuse to pay the money for a HDMI cable ONLY for the 360, although sooner or later, I am going to want my 360 games in high def. Just not right now.

Sure hope we're not in Baltimore as Lester would have a field day with us! (for you Wire fans)

Out of curiosity, why not hook up your 360 with components?

This game is going to pwn. period. The day this hits, COD4 will drop off of the face of the online charts -so many folks will be on playing GTA, I imagine finding players on some of the other popular online games would semmingly be scarce...lol

I am now very skeptical with whatever 2k puts out for this year...

NBA 2k8 and CHoops were great on the PS3.

It's just the developers behind the game. I know why you're skeptical but I honestly don't think you should be. Rockstar is making this game, not 2k Sports.

Rockstar may be owned by 2K but they're much different in terms of putting out a polished and worthy product.

This is a game that is even getting journalists who do nothing but play games giddy! I can't wait, I'm picking it up for the 360 the day it drops apr 29.

They are hooked up with components, but from what I see, my PS3 looks much better (hooked through HDMI). Are the components supposed to look near HD? I don't know that much about them, so help would be appreciated.

near HD? Component cables are cables... HDMI for the most part looks better than Component.

the difference from my experience is that HDMI is better but it's very subtle. at least in regards to video games.

not true for my tv...components are much better on my westinghouse than hdmi input.

to the other guy..your cables are in wrong or you don't have all of them plugged in or your tv doesn't accept all of them or you wouldn't be asking if it looks 'near hd' I can't believe you've missed out on all the great 360 games in HD! it makes a world of difference playing gears for example, the game goes from being an A to an A++, and I ablsoluetly love CoD4 on it.
