Techtorial: Next year, Grand Theft Auto V is without a doubt the biggest release from the video game industry and just in case you still haven’t own a PS3 or Xbox 360, here’s a discussion of possibilities why players should choose one platform over the other.
GTA for me is a PS game
I played the past GTA games on Sony platforms and it just wouldn't feel right playing it on another platform
Same goes with Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid for example
Currently #13...the online was a blast. It was like do whatever you wanted in your own world, especially with friends.
I can see with better graphics, controls, etc that GTA 5 will take over Live again.
We all came up on the PS2, since back then the entire earth had a PS2, but those old feelings like I have to play a game on one system or the other is long gone.
But, I do think like in my case I love earning achievements and favor the 360 controls. But I could see someone feeling the same for any system as we have this entire gen.
Most just simply play the system they own as everyone isn't like me and owns them all.

It's no secret that I love Playstation. I just don't see how your comment received disagrees. There was nothing wrong with it in the least. I'm sure the reason solely lies in the fact that you said 360. There was nothing "fanboyish" or irrational about your statement. I'm actually getting it on Ps3 because it's my system of choice. This article it stupid because it ultimately comes down to which console you have, or which system has most of your friend on it. Only way you'd be choosing the wrong platform is if you were expecting GTA 5 on the Wii U.
Due to the control mechanics/feel, friends and Achievements, I will be purchasing GTA5 on the 360 like I did with GTA4.
Just my preference.
I love how you guys are going to get it because of that, you do realise it's about the game not friends and achievements. Your like those people who buy COD only because of their friends, not because they like the game it's self.
Plus the mechanics/controls feel better on the PS3 because it was like that in GTA3, VC, SA
nothing more
for me
i will go with ps3 version because it will be on one disk /control /trophies
Haters gonna hate.
With the best version, it doesn't matter which console its played on.
While having 3 or more disc on X360, the PS3 suffers from having a lot of Data on the Disc as well, that depends on how optimized the game is on the system though. This is Rockstars second GTA title on this console and 4th or 5th game this gen, so I'm sure this game will work well on both platforms even after a patch. Look at how RDR ran on the 360 and how it ran after the patch on the PS3.
As the author mentioned MP3, it ran well on both consoles and I'm sure GTA V will run just as well on both consoles.
I played GTA IV on the 360 and then on the PS3 after I bought a PS3 and will end up picking up the PS3 copy at launch, due to not having any problems with GTAIV on the PS3.
Because I didn't encounter any.
I'm pretty sure it had that problem on XB too.
I just dont fancy swapping disc's every time i enter a building and then swapping disc again when i come out of that building
The xbox GTA 5 version will come with 6 disks says the latest rumos LOL
6 disks
Plus Rockstar games haven't had a good run on the ps3. The 360 version of GTA4 had a better framerate and overall better sharper looking game. Same goes with Red Dead. Than add all the other open world games like Skyrim, Fallout 3, or Far Cry 3 and you can see that the ps3 has issues with these type of games.. Open world games almost always has frame rate issues on the ps3.
Ever wonder why the ps3 has not have an exclusive to fully use the bluray and give us a massive open world game that would make Skyrim or GTA4 fans cry? Simple, because the ps3 can't handle it. The ps3's best games are all small box linear games like Uncharted. Infamous is the only open world exclusive but that game looked like crap. I expect the same with GTA5.
*Just an observation with facts giving from previous open world games. Don't get all pissy.
Your so called facts are wrong.
Far cry 3 , AC3 run as good or better on ps3
face off far cry 3
"for which both PS3 and 360 are guilty to equal degrees. Frame-rate is also a big drag too, and we'd hoped for better than the 20-30FPS fluctuations we're getting from both platforms during gunplay - though 360 fares slightly better here overall"
and then they say
"Image quality bears mention too: both console releases are tightly paired in their approach to multi-sampling native 720p outputs, and the only eye-catching difference is the dithered shadows on Sony's platform around globally illuminated areas. As if to compensate here, we see superior texture filtering on PS3 and slightly less evidence of triangle culling after fast-travelling around the archipelago. It's a close call in many respects"

Face Off Assasin Creed 3
"Technically, Assassin's Creed 3 is very well-rounded game on both PS3 and 360. For starters, the use of v-sync does greater justice to the visuals while in motion, where torn frames are now gladly a thing of the past. Outside of differences in texture filtering and shadow draw distance, which favour Microsoft's console by a small margin, there's very little else that set these two versions apart in terms of image quality. The 4.5GB mandatory install on PS3 might be a factor for some, but it's clear that the faster streaming from HDD has benefited performance greatly, resulting in a frame-rate that's often neck-and-neck with the 360's - save for a few busy spots around city areas.
Looking forward, it'll be fascinating to see what may be added - or potentially subtracted - from the game's upcoming Wii U release, and whether tablet controls can find a place in the Assassin's Creed experience. The upcoming PC version will also be worth considering, especially if it allows us to clear up the weaker graphical elements in view on console such as the aliased shadows and visible geometry pop-in. If you can't wait, however, it's fair to say the game is built around a strong familiarity of the 360 and PS3's boundaries, which reaps dividends in every other way. The differences have once again become even more marginal and either version is worth your attention."

"On the visual side of things, well they are pretty phenomenal to say the least. I have never seen a better looking open world game on consoles to date than inFamous 2. Not only does it look good, but it ran very smoothly with no performance hic-ups at all. "
you clearly never owned or played any ps3 exclusive
and it's clear you never owned ps3
