You guys do know that GTA IV would be out for xmas if it was not for the xbox 360.Got told that by a games developer at school in media it is because the 360 does not have the graffic capibilty to manage this game so they are having to alter some bits to work on the 360

Apprently its an error in the PS3 version as the PS3 version is a port of the 360 one.

There is no possible way it can be the 360 version, the game started work on the 360, they wont make a game they know wont work for it :rolleyes:

It's because of the PS3, I think they're having the same problem as Ubisoft are with Assassins Creed, I'm not sure but it is the PS3 that caused the delay, they wouldn't of said October if they knew it wouldn't work on the 360 would they?

Either way it should of been coming out in the next few weeks and maybe now but they out it back :eusa_wall

Assassin's Creed was an initial exclusive to PS3 and started on that, they then looked for a better way to get more moneys

Yea but Assassins Creed was still a problem for Ubisoft to actually pull off, they had trouble putting the whole game onto a DVD for the 360 but since the PS3 uses a completely different memory type to the 360 it was another task just getting that to work, we're lucky they got it or only the PC would be getting it

[Fez]

I can see why Blu-Ray and DOOVDE are completely different, Blu-Ray can store more and has more potential, but the doovde has a bit more variety and performance, it's also cheap (in a good way).

Yes but they are different, a blu-ray disk is nothing like a DVD and the PS3 probably needs a specific file format to run games, which can increase or decrease the file size depending on what it is, and they had to make sure the whole game would fit and run how it's meant to, I was reading on a page somewhere about them having troubles with the memory type, and why the hell are you calling it "Doovde"?

[Fez]

"Doovde"?

Also, I never knew that much trouble can be caused over specific memory types, all I have to do to convert a song is import it into Windows Movie Maker and save as a different file.

looks immense

Yea well if you think about it you can get some problems when trying to convert file types, sometimes the file type does something to the data making it too big which wouldn't be good, which is what the problem with Assassins Creed might of been but luckily it turned out fine, Rockstar may be having the same problem but they probably had too much space on the DVD alone so they may of decided to increase it since they had a chance too

If it was the 360's fault, it's to do with some of the consoles not having a harddrive.

[Camy]

I read in Gamesmaster it was the PS3s fault, i cant remember y now, but i remember reading it.
It is a bit annoying about the Doovde :/
lol

[Fez]

Still, Rockstar are getting it ready for de hud

[Frodo13.]

I cant wait for this game, going to get it on PS3.

Probably was PS3 fault for the delay. Rockstar have had a long time to get used to the Microsoft technology and they already have games for the 360. They have only had a few months to start work on PS3 version.

Oh and btw, PS3 version is not a port. GTA4 is not made for any specific console, but it is true they started working with 360 1st due to the reason I just gave above :)

True,
I wonder if we'll be able to play it over the broadbandings, maybe even link up to the Pusp?
:rolleyes:

Check Neil's thread for that information, and there was talk of bringing a little funcionality into mobile phones and PSPs, but that's just speculation.

I don't think it is a port...
Because it's a complete different level of coding etc as has been stated so they are basically making the same game in 2 different ways.

I still think that the Blu-ray will have the upper hand due to more space on the disk....
Apparently ther 360 version is extremely laggy

It isn't a port, they started work on the 360 version way back last year sometime but couldn't do much for the PS3 version until they got there hands on a PS3 and learned how to work with it, neither are ports and why would the 360 version be laggy? I don't understand why you people seem to think the 360 can't cope, they started working on the game so it WOULD work on the 360, they're not gonna make a game that doesn't run well are they :rolleyes:
The 360 is actually faster than the PS3 so I'd love to know where you're getting this information from, and the graphics wont slow it down because like I've said, they've made the game to actually work with the 360, obviously any graphical improvements they can do for the PS3 version will be made, disk size has very little to do with how fast a game runs, and GTA games can fit on tiny PSP UMDS and PS2 disks so I doubt they're gonna have much problems fitting in on an 8Gb disks :rolleyes:

Lovin the graphics.
