Yes or no question, did you buy your 720P or higher resolution HDTV and PS3/360 to play at 630P?

I don't know about you, but I think I'm gonna go buy me a fake Rolex in Mexico since nobody will be able to tell the difference!

You have a point there but i wanted to say that it doesnt't matter which version comes to top.Fanboys fight and argue as if the take part of the profit!

Haunted · Apr 28, 2008

Imagine if Nintendo had gone the power route this gen.

We'd have another camp of fanboys in full force here.

360 only owners just can't handle the thought.

mood · Apr 28, 2008

Haha going by this thread, both versions are inferior to each other now. But one has to be more inferiorer!

Hey can I play too?

-downplay the 57 reviews that said the 360 version has more pop-in than the PS3 version
-take as absolute fact a random poster on another board that claims PS3 GTA IV is sub-720p based on one compressed screen shot from ign.com
-deny that there's a chance that a multiplatform game might look better on the PS3
-blame everything on the PS3 fanboys

How did I do?

picked up the ps3 special edition version.

fuck E penis whores i just wanted to pick up the game that looked the best.

magus · Apr 28, 2008

I love my PS3 but these fanboy wars are getting out of control. Just buy whatever version you want and be happy you got the game.

Right. That's me. I'm off to get my GTA4 folks. Enjoy the thread. I've really enjoyed the blast today. My favourite thread of the year and I wouldn't have been possible without you good people.

Take care. Bye.

No joke, the same exact performance. What frame drops do exist, they are minor at best on both machines

Somehow, this doesn't sound like a consolation... I would prefer them to be minor at worst cases:lol

I don't know why we're even talking about this game, it's so obviously a pile of shit on both systems. What a fuckup.

Turns out the 360 version is HD while the PS3 is only 630p it seems

Well the trick is to find out which one looks less inferior from an angle.

kinda like my penis.

I guess I'll just wait until the game drops in price...

You do know that is only 480p at best right?

Tired, derivative and unoriginal. There hasn't even been 57 reviews, so you clearly don't even know what you're talking about. That random poster is trusted and has revealed many different game resolutions. Plus, PS3 fanboys are horrible people and the root of all evil. You clearly don't know what you're talking about so quit jumping on my back.

Yes or No answer, two identical TV's, two copies of GTA IV, a PS3 and a 360, both running GTA4 side by side, could you actually tell the difference between the diifferent resolutions that the game is rendered at ?

so no one has got a definitive answer to this question then ?

apart from "The PS3 version should look a little blurrier."

come on people, would you be able to tell the difference, don't give me, maybe, or should be able to, YES OR NO FFS.

I do. Seriously. I can see the difference between a 360 game running in 720p or lower resolutions...

Also, we've found that pop-in is worse on review copies than on the retail game.

insufficient evidence to really back this claim up. there have been people with retail copies that report similar pop-in to review copies. why do you keep ignoring this?

Short answer: "yes" with an "if." Long answer: "no" with a "but."

Because we have gifs that show pop in not occurring in the same spot. It is impossible for pop-in to appear out of nowhere randomly. Pop-in always occurs in the same spot and will always be present.

God Hand, metacritic, check it.

Also, there's not any static overarching conclusion. Saying the PS3 version looks "warmer" is an indecisive way of saying absolutely shit about the game.

I'm not asking that, read my question properly, I'm asking if you could tell the difference between the the 360 version running at 720p compared to the PS3 version running at 630p, you would be able to tell 100% that ps3 version is running at a lower resolution ?

If he can see it between different games, he'll more likely see it in the same game.

Apples and oranges. The quality of the game itself is not being debated. It's the performance of the game on different platforms that's being debated. And reviews have unanimously pointed towards...
