First of all: I am so pumped for this game, friday cannot come fast enough. Its also my birthday so the game is a gift from myself :)

OK so I have it pre-ordered on both platforms but I am going to cancel one. Not sure which one though.

Considering PS3 is lead platform you would expect it to have the edge. Plus theres the whole 1 disc thing, which I don't think is much of an issue. I want the best experience visually and the nicest framerate.

For all of those with both platforms - which will you be getting it on and why?? Controller? Trophies/Achievements? Pre-order bonuses??

Oh yeh and this isnt about inciting a platform war. I love them both equally, I just want the best performance for my £34.99.

I got these off the Eurogamer forum, they could be fake. I prefer the gamma levels on 360 but its all just a matter of personal preference I suppose.

I don't have a choice. So PS3, but only in a few month or next year, because I have a feeling that there will be a Complete Edition.

The PS3 version has exclusive content, so PS3.

I've spent a fucking fortune on boring stuff this month so I'm not getting it for anything. :-(

it does seem that 360 has the graphical edge from those pics like most R* games (surprising tho when this is ps3 lead platform tho =/).

I'll be getting it on ps3 anyway. I play my ps3 much more than my 360, it comes on one disc and ps3 has an exclusive case so i'm fine with ps3 =)

@ Gekidami - HA think I must have missed that. Hmmmm, googling....

The ps3 version for sure, because of the lead platform and exclusive content, the multiple disc issue doesnt affect me.

Yeah, I must admit, I would have gone for the 360 version as well if all other things were equal, but the disc-swapping (sorry, i'm shallow & lazy) and PS3 exclusive content swings it for me.

Slightly lower-res textures and *possibly* a slightly lower frame-rate aren't enough for me to swap my pre-order over at this stage.

probably ps3 for the extra content, looking at the two versions side by side i dont see a tremendous difference really plus i need to boost my trophy score, i'm only level 8 lol

What is the exclusive content? Just one extra mission or a fancy car or something like that?

Think this might sway me in the PS3 direction.

i think its a couple of hours worth of stuff i'm not sure, if its only a ten mission or something i might change my order.

here is the achievements/trophies anyway

360 for me, just because I need an excuse to play on the 360 again. Though if the PS3 has tons more stuff than the 360 version I'll change the order.

It sounds like the exclusive mission is one of the 'random' events that can occur while you're off the main mission, a bit like the extra bandit hideout in PS3 Red Dead.

I grow tired of games where I listen and watch more than I actually end up PLAYING.
While this looks like a great game, I'll probably pick it up in 2012.
For PS3.

I'm getting it for PS3 because i have no choice (for now, until september), but basically i'm buying sub-par version compared to Xbox 360

i said before that Rockstar gives free shit not because of something, it's because port is crappy and stop saying about who started development or not.

the reality is here. Ps3 is a weak system and can't handle sanbox environment correctly compared to Xbox 360 + heavy textures on face in which Nvidia GPU is weaker then Radeon R500

but the thing that lets you play with one disk on Ps3 is a nice addition. Still, i prefer better frame rate and graphics and free content is shit anyway.

What is the exclusive Content on PS3?? I pre-ordered at GameStop..PUKE!! But it will be the only Store Open at Midnight in my Woods. It looks the same for both Versions on content!

PS3 definitely for me. One disc, lead platform, plus the exclusive content; it's an easy decision for me.

@frostquake

Rockstar hasn't announced what the exclusive content is yet, they have just said that the exclusive content is coming to PS3.

@Gekidami, "^ Infamous 2 says otherwise. Troll harder. "

What is says?

there is Infamous 2 on xbox 360? No, there is not. So it shows nothing.

but i'm sure that Infamous 2 canlook better on 360, so no... It says nothing because you can't compare.

comparison video there,both seem to look the same but a couple of the reviews have said there is some framerate issues with 360 version

AS usual Erth is trolling because he can and provides no evidence that "PS3 is the sub par version" which is just horse shit LA Noire was made on the PS3 first and its the lead console most footage you see is from the PS3 version.

@Phoenix, look at the triggerhappy686 screens. They say everything.

I'm not trolling, i'm just judging the screens from triggerhappy686. Maybe they are fake, maybe not.

also, if i'm seeing the PS3 version that does not mean that visuals are better. It's just a PR way as always.
