It's kind of old news but it's delayed because of Microsoft - Xbox 360.

didn't they orignally design it for the 360 then do a port to the PS3 thus making the problem with the ps3?

They didn't port it all, they did the first chunk of work on the 360 but the problem was the PS3, probably the same problem Ubisoft had with Assassins Creed, the memory was different on the PS3 as it is on the 360 or something and it was complicated to change the data and have it all working or something like that

I would say it was the memory problem, because Ubisoft had the same problem and both games were started on the 360

yeah it was the memory problem with 360 as PS3 could support it with Blueray.

They postponed it, due to serious graphical and gameplay flaws
within the ASI Coding.

No, the memory problem is that it was a different type, they designed the game on the 360, they wouldn't design a game that wouldn't fit on the disk, it has NOTHING to do with the size of the game

Well what I have heard is that they have to release both versions of the game at the same time.

Supposedly they have a contract with Sony to release both X360 and PS3 versions at the same time.

If all you fanboys could stop moaning about who's fault this is then perhaps we can get back to talking about GTA:IV?

It was delayed because of the 360 not having enough memory/different memory. Research it andf youll find out

Im a HUGE PS3 fanboy, and even I can admitt that it is probably the PS3's fault for GTA4 delay. R* havn't had as much time to get use to PS3 techonology.

Thank you, the PS3 uses a different memory type from the 360 and Rockstar changing data from 360 to PS3 then working from the PS3 isn't exactly an easy task, they can't just instantly know how everything will effect it, the game is coming, it's been delayed because of a little problem
It doesn't matter anyway because now they can make the game better =/

Edit - 5000th post xD

Wouldve made much more sense to code the games simultaneously instead of porting it...

Like they did with COD 4

Yea it does make sense, some games can't be done like that because of access the a PS3 though alot more games will be done at the same time now all 3 consoles are out now though xD
