I really don't see the diffrence here. GTA is on two great consoles. Can we stop the bitching at eachother about which console is better and just enjoy the great games out there?

GTA IV Won on ps3 because x-box had been hacked - and GTA is downloadable via torrents! That's why PS3 won here - END OF STORY

Well you're probably right. in Denmark it was like sold out, and i had to buy PS3 GTA IV edition, cause i dont wanna pay Xbox Live. But the 360 version was not sold one single time i was in the stores... but anyway, danish people are PS3 geeks so whatever. i dont do the fanboy stuff anymore.

One of them happens to be your own :) Oh dear.

Frankly, all this fan boy stuff is annoying. There should be a rule against flaming - oh wait, there is, but the staff are blind when it comes to certain people.

X360 is WAY better than PS3!!:p hahaah


i'm gonna buy an X360 with GTA IV bundle and halo 3 in a couple of days, i'm buying every console sony didn't make;) hehe..

nah but i think X Live is better than PSN, and there are alot better for xbox 360 than ps3, suck on that!:p

i'm working on some boats atm, so soon i'll afford that cool-looking white console (X360), and it will look even cooler when it stands next to my wii;)..:D

EDIT: hmm, sry for the flame, but it's my opinion..:)
