    Default GTA IV 360 and PS3 versions [Also new features and controls]

    So there's been a big question littering the air since it was announced that the trailers us the 360 engine. Is the PS3 version of Grand Theft Auto IV worser?

    I had a look around and apparently only one source has had access to it.

    - The PS3's version seems to be exactly the same visually as it's 360 counterpart
    - The frame rate on the ps3 version is extremely smooth

    - Niko's clothes get bloodier after you take more and more damage
    - You can ring 911 to get the police, ambulance or fire brigade
    to create a diversion or simply steal their car and anything else you can foster up
    - When you fail a mission, you receive a text message asking whether you want to replay the mission, even a 'skip trip' feature is included
    - Multiplayer will be accessed from the phone
    - The phone can also be used for messageing, photos, reminders and music.
    - R1 will be the 'into cover' button for the ps3, many variations of getting into cover apply
    - You can dangle from Helicopters, just like vans and trucks
    - When your about to die it fades into black and white, just like in gears of war and uncharted.
    - Ne-Yo and R Kelly were heard on the radio
    - 18 radio stations available
    - Niko is able to ask the cab driver to change the radio station
    - Niko pays the cabbie double (which adds up to $39) to speed up
    - Bums on the street ask for money, you have the ability to give them money
    - Niko raises his arms when cops try to 'bust him' out of say a car, but he can move freely and can run or retaliate
    The preview was based on the PlayStation 3 version of the game. This is the first time (as far as I am aware) that the PS3 version has been previewed by the gaming press.

    - The faster you tap X, the faster Niko runs. He doesn't appear to get tired.
    - Major collisions on motorbikes cause the helmet to fall off. You can see it fall onto the ground.
    - Heavy fire will scar - and permanently destroy - parts of the environment.
    - They previewed a mission called "To Live and Die in Alderney," which is the second part of "Truck Hustle." The second mission is called "Jamaican Heat," and acts as a tutorial for the new cover/targeting system. The third mission is called "Jacob's Ladder," and the fourth (and final) mission is called "Harbouring a Grudge." This mission introduces an Irish character called Patrick McReary, who is related to Francis.
    - The mobile phone can be used to call the police, the paramedics, and the fire department.
    - There are 18 radio stations in GTA IV - one of which is Russian. All of these stations can be accessed via the mobile phone.
    - You can take photos with the mobile phone and upload them to the police computer.
    - Health is represented by a green semi-circle on the left side of the radar, and a right semi-circle represents armour. You can restore health by resting, by using medical kits, and by eating.
    - In taxis, you can ask the driver to change the radio station by pressing D-pad left or right.
    - The GTA 4 equivalent of the Lincoln Tunnel is known as the Booth Tunnel.
    Source

    I think they should both be equal , but I can't stop the exclusive DLC the 360 will have.

    huh, why does 360 get more download content? GTA wouldnt be half as good as what it is now if they didnt release GTA 3 on ps2, I really do think thats a bad move by R* Games to give the 360 more content than the PS3.

    Microsoft made a contract with Rockstar, £100 million (?), for the DLC.

    I'm not fussed anyway.

    I don't know why but I have this weird feeling the character will feel really sluggish when walking

    It's not nessercarily getting more, it's just 2 downloads Microsoft have paid Rockstar to make exclusive, Sony may get exclusive stuff aswell from GTA4 it's just the episodic content it wont get
