I would love that.

That raises another question for me. Again, all MS' money, and Sony gets the GTA console?

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Well... I think MS might have some agreement with Best Buy... check this out:



That's a pretty damn good deal... I'm sure they will make the money back on selling the replacement plan...

Yeah, but that's a one week special. The PS3/GTA bundle is a bundle that will be sold for months.

Im still torn between both versions. I just dont wann get one version than a week later wish I had gotten the other. We haven't hade many 360 impressions on here, lots of ps3 though.

Guys, I bought mine at best buy since it's on the way to work and i had an old 30 dollar gift card. They had at least 50 copies per system that I could see, and 20 limited ed per sys. (so probably more), I had no pre-order. I went to the game section and the guy said, just go to the cash you don't need anything. So I went, and the two girls said 'you here for the game?' I laughed and they asked if i wanted limited ed. or normal and what system. She gave me the game and the dice and i left.

Zip, nada, zero. I played it at 1AM last night and 8 AM this morning for an hour each, both times full blown free roam games with 16 people in it.

EG, did you take the day off today?

I read a few pages that there was no hiccups on the online portion for PS3. That sounds good.

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Yup. Everywhere I've read has said PS3 online is flawless. Extremely happy to read that.

Eg, that's a good point. Now that I think back, Best Buy had similar deals with the PS3 and The Show when buying an HDTV... so yeah, that's odd that GTA4 gets sold with a SONY system, when MS bought that exclusivity....

$50 million doesn't get you what it used to.

I can answer a few questions about the 360 version.

Same here, in fact I've played both. There's virtually no difference between the two versions in my opinion. Either one you choose, you're going to get a great experience. The loading time on the 360 is BARELY longer than the PS3...but no enough to really notice. The frame rate stays consistent on both platforms, online is flawless and lag free on both, etc, etc, etc.

What else would you like to know?

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

I played until about 7am and woke up about an hr ago.

We are all NOT going crazy this game IS as good as all the reviews say.

can't argue the fact that this might be the best game ever created.

What's impressed me the most is not the detail, because it's pretty much as much as we saw with san Andreas(you know clothing shops atms etc-those kind of things) it's more so the way you CAN just go ANYWHERE, saints row felt empty after awhile and so did the previous gtas, this one? NOPE.

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

is there lag online on the 360?

jaggies. which do you feel looks smoother or has more straight lines instead of ripples etc?

i have te ps3 version solely and can tell you I had to calibrate my hd over to make it look good. and my original settings made mlb 08 absolutely smooth but those settings did not work for gta4 so i had to quickly change them

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

I have the game but I haven't gotten enough time on it to check out everything, is there a car mod shop like in GTA and are there parachutes? I love jumping off buildings.

I don't get it...which console am I a fanboy for? And am I a 2K or EA guy today? It gets hard to keep track sometimes...
