The 360 has a more powerful GPU period, it's a matter of how OVERALL resources are used though.
For the most part, games look the same and people who argue are using poor cable/resolution combinations
(ie; HDMI on one system and VGA on the other).

Bah. Motorcycles. It is true to life, even a lowspeed hit will knock you off your bike. . .but when the teether for "losing" the biker is so short, and there is no auto-lock on while riding one. . .the handling can get a TEENSY bit annoying. . .
Speaking of No Love Lost btw. . .if I could hotrod a car before I "lost" him. . .I'd just jump in that and run his ass over.

Just completed the game. 94 missions as well, @ 61%
 Spoiler: | first option, let the guy live. 2nd option killed that bad cop that noone liked. 3rd option: I killed Playboy X, 4th option i choose revenge (not money) and killed that russian dude Dimitri, last option I killed my childhood friend. |
What did you guys choose and how did it affect the story?

| Spoiler: | first option, let the guy live. 2nd option killed that bad cop 3rd option: I killed Dwayne 4th option i choose revenge (not money), oh and the guy in your last (5th) option wasn't a childhood friend  killed him too but the order in which I killed them was actually different -> 1,3,2,5,4 for me.
Don't think it does influence much  |

The framerate is quite low. I guess maybe its locked at around 30fps like other GTA games. But either way this game is still quite fun.
I have a question, why do the cars drive like crap? Is it because I need to gain driving skills like in SA?

Because the game takes more into account the change in road surface, Inclines, Declines, Curbs, Bumps, etc. That and the new physics engine means half the time your car doesn't seem to have any level of grip and some of the tires are airborne. Also a lot of the early cars seem to be tanks and they wanted to emphasize that by having the weight shift. They seemed to have extended the braking distances too because it takes a while to stop especially when the wheels lock.
But other then that most people suck ass at driving in car related games so I blame it on that. You can't just gun it everywhere you go in the game and expect to be in one piece.
EDIT: I personally like the driving mechanics, it makes you drive more careful/cautious rather then like a mad man. And it makes successfully driving like a mad man rewarding.

Yeah I prefer it this way too. The introduction of the physics engine has made the series alot more realistic and fun to play.

you cant just floor it, otherwise you'll do a burnout, need to increase the throttle gradually much like real driving, me likey.

I have a turismo and it slides all over the place. Makes me sad when such a nice car gets all scratched up

OMFG this game is way too realistic. The neighborhood I live in, is in the game LOL. In the game its called "Meadow Hills" but in real life its called "Forest Hills." Its quite fun terrorizing my boring neighborhood in GTA ahahaha

The game is worth a 10. If you rather dwell on some technical bullshit and not realize why it's got a 10, then I pity you.
Now, does anyone know if it's possible to get a haircut/shave in this game?

totally agree more of a 9/10 game than 10/10. I think its sad they took away the stuff from San Andreas. And about cars disapearing.... never saw it once. And iv completed the game. Used about 22 hours.

I'm not a 360 fanboy but I can't believe gta4 has actually a slightly better gfx on PS3... :\
