Picked up my copy in LA about 3 hours ago. I have put about 90 minutes into it so far. I am liking the game so far I must say, judging by the Xbox videos I have seen compared to playing the PS3 version I wish I had gotten it on 360 (the store was not selling 360 versions yet). I am getting a lot of slow down on the PS3 version with dips into what seems like 18 - 20 fps fairly regularly. If you have both systems, at this point I would suggest the 360 version.

What PS3 do you have?

 

[endresults]

Liar. If you really had GTA V you wouldn't have taken a picture of it, you would have played it the very second you were able.

Not surprising the 360 version turns out superior. They always do in open world games.

How much fun is it going to be to time yourself speeding around the entire map so you can attempt to break your own records? So much fun

I wouldn't be so fast to say.

Seen some streams of PS3 running just fine.

Yup. Seem nearly identical to me.

Some people in this thread have said it runs fine too.

I would not say that we have several impressions of the PS3 version now.

Maybe some people are less sensitive to framerate drops, or just don't care too much.

Yeah, but drops to 18-20fps?

I seriously doubt it's that bad.

Idk, I'd like to see some real proof he has the game, rather than picture of a wrapped up copy you could find anywhere online.

My heart stopped for a second, only have a PS3 so I would die if the PS3 version sucks

 

[mcfrank]

What PS3 do you have?

I have a launch 60GB

It certainly does not suck. But if people have the choice I think the should get the Xbox version

 

[Gaz_RB]

I have a launch 60GB

What was happening when it slowed down? Lots of action? Or just driving around?

 

[JoduanER2]

It certainly does not suck. But if people have the choice I think the should get the Xbox app.

It does if it runs at 20 fps

 

[Zukuu]

rather, one guy who wants the ps3 version to be inferior (or just thinks it is) and therefore sees things more drastic. Or his PS3 is faulty.


So far, I rather trust the majority of people, who all said it runs smooth.

starting at 12AM Eastern Time this Tuesday

I still say it could be another mistake. The PSN store still says 12am pacific time.

 

[mcfrank]

Driving in the city.

My bad it is 12am est.

 

[King326]

Does anyone know at what time exactly the game will be available to download on US PSN? (and in what timezone)

My friend told me its 12AM PST.. I will have double check that. It was in the description before you purchase the PSN pre order.

 

[Chris R]

I can't get the 360 version though since I want to try some online at least a few times... But if the PS3 version is that bad I might just switch.

 

[oxidax]

Thats what their twitter says

 

[NoSkillz187]

It may be a bit of an exaggeration, but with as many people trying to download the game at the same time as you, the servers will be slammed.

This isnt TLOU. This is GTA. Its a different beast.

Sure the servers will get hammered, but just start the download, go to bed and say hi to GTA V in the morning. Now if your internet is complete shit, then why would you even consider downloading it?

 

[DukeBobby]

360 version running at a smooth 30fps, while PS3 dropping to 18-20?

C'mon, even RDR and GTA IV didn't have that kind of disparity, folks. I doubt it's a similar case here.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet.

 

[oxidax]

he said he has a launch 60gb. Maybe it just doesnt behave well with the launch console.

 

[tookhster]

We have people saying the PS3 version looks better and have people saying now that they wish they could've gotten the 360 version.

The important thing is that we can all agree the game looks damn fine on both consoles, so who cares?

That's not true at all. From everyone that are watching HD streams they both looked and ran on par.

Basically my predicament as well. Don't want to pay just to try out the online stuff. But I don't really want to get the ps3 version if it's a lot worse than the 360 version ( and lets be hohest, historically, 360 versions og multiplat games are better )

Well if dips to 20 fps are a real thing on the ps3 version. Then I care, a lot.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

 

[JoduanER2]

But around the city, were there any problems?

Weren't there issues with The Last Of Us on launch consoles?

 

[Loudninja]

How about people try not to suggest a version they have not played?

 

[mcfrank]

Hopefully that's all it is, but I know what framerate drops look like and I promise there are a lot of frame rate drops.

 

[NoSkillz187]

That's exactly what I'm saying.

Actually the funny thing is you get some people saying it runs better on PS3 and others saying the opposite. What this tells me is that they both run pretty good and both will probably have the technical problems that open world games have on consoles.

Either way it is running and looking better than GTA IV did on either console.

Maybe some people had issues, but TLOU ran perfect on my launch PS3.

It's more than likely a mistake. Everyone, including the PSN Store, have said 12am pst until now.

This game is so awesome! My life will be GTAV for the next couple of weeks. I'm afraid of this game.

It was killing some peoples consoles but others were just fine. I played through TLOU twice on my launch PS3 and had a great experience... not one crash. Others were crashing randomly though.

I also played the TLOU and did not have any issues except frame rate drops occasionally. I would compare the frame rate occasionally in GTAV to the walk up to the capitol building in TLOU

Damn, I have been trying to kill some time by playing BOGT multiplayer and I end up getting disconnected after about 3 minutes multiple times. I hope this isn't indicative of what will happen for GTAO.

Anyhow priority #1 is to run ethernet down to the game room just to be sure it isn't an issue with my wireless connection.

That so what I am reading mostly
