buy it. the coppers are ruthless in the game and when in a sports car, it is more like a racing game. the renditions of the city, based on genuine boroughs of new york are true to life. you cannot lose.

to lend credence to these above opinions..... i have one question (as i have the PS2 right now) whcih (along with GTA4) should i buy? 360 or PS3??

I have heard it has a bit more pop, on the 360 when i read a 360 vs ps3 reveiw when a major website tried both next to each other but things are a bit more impressive running wise on the ps3.

they said the difference is so minor it shouldn't matter one bit.

also the 360 may get downloadable content which could allow them to extend the game

The games awesome!!! I am a PS3 and Xbox 360 owner, I bought it for xbox strictly because Xbox's online service is superior to the PS3's online service, that and most of my friends own Xbox 360's so its convenient. I did a lot of research on both console releases and determined that the main differences between the two were quite minor and mainly dealt with color and frame rate. The game supposedly has a little more pop on PS3.

As far as the PS3 vs. XBOX question goes, it really does depend on what you want it to do. 360 hands down has a much wider selection of games and online options. PS3 has the built in Bluray and I've found it to be more flexible with media (movies off the camera, etc.)

If you don't like to play lots of different games, and PS3 has the ones you ARE into, and if you aren't big into the online stuff. I'd say the PS3. If you play alot of different games and like to play online a bit... 360.

We have both, and until the next final fantasy title, the ps3 wont get used much, cept for movies.
