Nielsen Data Says GTA IV Episodes Swayed Buyers To Xbox360 >

	2008/08/12 14:30:02: Posted by DM
	According to Nielsen data, over 17% of the GTA IV sales were to underage gamers, despite the ERSB's crackdown. Oh wait, we are interested in the other bit of data. It seems that 25% of gamers chose the Xbox360 version of GTA IV over the PS3 version, due to the announced exclusive episodic content that is due out at the end of this year. Downloadable extras are really starting to play a part in video games. >Link

Resolution is another reason why people wanted the Xbox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto 4 instead of the Playstation 3 version.

The Xbox 360 version of GTA4 runs at 720p resolution, while the PS3 version runs at only 640p resolution. Websites such as Eurogamer and Gamespot have done detailed comparisons (especially the Eurogamer one) and there is no doubt that the Xbox 360 version has superior graphics.

Soul Caliber 4 is another new release with significantly higher resolution on the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 version runs at 1365x960p, while the PS3 version runs at only 1280x720p. That means the Xbox 360 version has 40% higher resolution.

Also, the Xbox 360 version supports Rumble, Achievements, and Custom in-game Music. The PS3 version does NOT support Rumble (not even if you bought the $60 dualshock 3 controller), does NOT support Trophies, and does NOT support Custom in-game Music.

YOu should stop making comments and just write the articles your damn self, you always seem to have some little extra add or extend the article as if the writers forgot or left somethings out that you just needed everyone else to be aware of .

NO sh!t people bought it for the 360 because of the extra episodes.

Now when the F&ck are they coming out.

what does SC4 to do with gta????

What do you even bother to read his post?

^^^Lay off him B1ue^^^ At least he can read :p

ps3 version has superior graphics and free online play. WIN!

ps3 has inferior sales and craptastic online. LOSE!

Well first of all, the link is to unknown site so, sure people say everything...

But I'm also sure that anyone that bough for xbox 360 version, would buy the episode content.

But I doubt, it will be a lot of ppl that would buy it,

unless if the maps are included, which I doubt it.

Another survey was asked how many ppl finished the game, and It was less than 10 percent finished the game.

I got it from unknown site so you can ignore that part.

But point is, it always happens to all GTA franchise, when it comes to amount of hours...

Now with Krogan, wether you like it or not, PS3 is starting to lead in everything...

Sure your right about resolution, but I couldn't find any different till Mirror Edge and Burnout had to show us how much different it was.

Then the other way around.

Belive me I can say same crap about Xbox 360 how bad it is, But I dont think that's the point of this news here.

And Krogan one more thing, you might hate to hear this, but IGN and GAMESPOT already said GTAIV is better on PS3 then XBOX360, so really I dont care which version is better... I just care which system will save us time in the long run, because once both system has the same game,

I don't think anything matters...

Hopefully GTAIV doesn't give you RROD.

Have FUN !

Sorry for the LONG POST, but had to prove Krogan that he is wrong,

blacktiger,

The only thing worse than your grammar is your perception of reality!

IGN was the first to post a review online of GTA4, and both the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions were rated the exact same.

The only time anyone said the PS3 version was better than the Xbox 360 version was in an audiocast where the Xbox 360 version was being looked at in a later part of the game. Many IGN editors were there, include the PS3 editor. The PS3 editor said, "it appears as if the Xbox 360 has more draw-in problems than the PS3 does." The Xbox 360 editor talked about that situation in the review. However, it was later confirmed that the PS3 editor was talking about different parts of the game that he had seen in earlier stages. When Eurogamer did their comparison, they made sure to compare EVERY part of the game, side-by-side, and in each part the Xbox 360 won the comparison.



Gamespot also made it 100% clear in the comparison that the Xbox 360 version has higher resolution and superior overall graphics.

Eurogamer took this FAR further with their incredibly detailed comparison. Eurogamer made it 100% clear that the Xbox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto 4 beats the Playstation 3 in every measurable way!

Preach on brother Urdnot Wrex.

Sony Wins!!

MS Loses

Nuff said?

Explain to me How Sony Wins? 1 out of 10 doesn't make you a winner it makes you the total opposite.

Mangina-dude you are too funny, want to go into Flalmingwars.com? I think its time again to give you F@gTiger & Tecno Geek a lesson on why you should not be douche bag (ask Tecno Geek, that last time what happened. Put it this way he's just returning after 1 and a half that how bad He got Pawned)

I got tired of owning you and pimp over there. It was 2 on 1 and you guys were still getting hammered. I started to feel bad.

I don't know who fit the definition of Delusional more, but here are the nominees, Urndot Wrecks his hands, Mangina-dude, VaginaTiger, Tecno Geek. Am I missing someone ?

I call bullsh!t on your last comment Mangina. you Ps3 buddies wouldn't come to help you out so you left in shame.

You forgot B1ueballer and that Arthur kid.

NO I didn't I left those guys out, they are nominees for most down to earth coolest motherf&ckers on this planet, in the Realist category along with many others. PimpD, Maki, to name others.

however I did forget SKY for the delusional category.

PimpDaddy:

Thank you for taking the time to post the hyperlink to the Eurogamer comparison which proves Grand Theft Auto 4 is far superior on the Xbox 360.

This act of faith has saved you from the judgment that came upon dudeman and blacktiger...There are only a few PS3 fanboys left because the Xbox 360 software is always so much better.

Let me guess...SKY was a ps3 fanboy that spoke the truth and it hurt you to hear it?

Yeah Sky spoke "HIS" truth, and he got bombarded with Links that proves him wrong with facts, you know like what Urdnot and PimpD, do to you on regular. Until you face the facts or run like a F@gTigers with your tail between your legs or you just change to subject.

With that said, Its better to switch form Disc to disc than it would be if I was switching form Console to Console, if you owned both 360 and Ps3. I know you did you lots of switching being that 360 version are always better and Ps3 exclusives 80% don't live up to the hype.

sorry, but you FAIL.

Why are the PS3 boys taking all the 360 owners words. I mean can't you guys be original, I see Sony can't with their PSN. Did that un-originality pass on to you guys. Come up with your own words.

Sorry Krogan, If you read it again, they said PS3 was much clear and better antialias, and that IGN and GAMESPOT said the same thing, so its not concidence, it just facts.

Resolution didn't help anything...

So have fun again !

Dudeman If i were you, lets bring all the facts, see what they have to do, cause I;ve notice everytime I bring up the facts, they get really hurts...

So why not do that then bashing on their face and having a flame, which is no fun.

i dont even care i never bought gta 4 and i never will

evilblackgranger, you will regret it.

THE GAME ITSELF SUCKS... but the multiplayer fits perfectly for the GTA franchise...

I beg you rent or borrow.

The game make sense, if not ask any gamers that has GTAIV...

it just bunch of gangs members ... you have no idea what your missing, especially, I myself never like GTA franchise in my whole entire life... BUT GTAIV was the first time I loved it and it was fun...

SINGLE PLAYER i'm on 4th mission out of 100 or more mission.... too boring....

i rented a whie back and it just didnt amuse me or get my attention. i tried the mutiplayer and i didnt really like.

and plus and didt like how the cars move either missions were pretty boring, just not my type of game.

sorry

hmm too bad and another thing I agree the cars move really difficult but the reason they did that, is to feel like, crazy drivers to feel alike...

but if u don't like it, then i can understand...
