I thought it comes out on PC in October. From what I've gathered it'll probably be coming out on PC early 2009 I'm afriad.

Well it kinda does, GTA4 is the biggest game ever made. It's so huge they had loads of trouble fitting it all onto one DVD. goes against what you said that these consoles have a long life span yet, and they can only just handle todays games Most games aren't pushing the consoles to their max though this is the first to do it. What ever happens these consoles will last at least 4 or 5 more years simply because Microsoft and Sony (especially Sony) take ages to design hardware that is so significantly advanced from the last generation to be worth devloping a new console yet.

lol can get ps3 for 100pound thru my contacts... ;D Ah fair enough (fell off the back of a lorry did it ;D ). Yeah well GTA4 was pretty much the only reason I got an Xbox 360, the game is going to be awesome.

GTA 4 is already pushing the 360 and PS3 to their limits and they're both extremely powerfull bits of hardwear. In all fairness, though, they're still nothing on top PC specs even now, and PC hardware evolves much more quickly than consoles. Pound for pound, PCs far out-perform consoles, simply because they have room for larger components and far superior cooling, among other factors. If it is released on a PC, the PC version should be a superior release, though Console->PC ports are often very lazy affairs, sadly. The X360 and PS3 are both wonderful bits of gadgetry (albeit far from their full potential right now), but anyone who wants the very top gaming experience should be turning to a PC any time.

WOW!!
I wasn't thinking of getting this game but after reading that it just seems sooooo amazing. Maybe I'll get it as a reward after my GCSE's; if I can wait that long!
To add to the Xbox vs PS3 row I present this paragraph from that article:
"For those wanting to know which version looks better, the edge goes to the PS3. The textures and framerate are comparable, but the PS3 has far less pop-in. The 360 has richer colors, but the PS3 has better anti-aliasing making it look a little cleaner. Because GTA IV can preload onto the PS3 hard drive, the in-game loads are faster. Don't worry Xbox owners, the load times are rarely more than 30 seconds and don't occur very often. The slight visual edge goes to PS3, but the 360 is no slouch. Either version will do you proud."

I can't wait to get it either but like TSW it will be another 6 weeks until I do. Been reading as many articles and watching as many videos as I could about it.

Saw an ad for GTA4 on TV yesterday (unless I dreamed the ad )... That's the amazing graphics the PS3 and X360 are supposed to have? Okay, they're pretty good, but I've seen better on PC games, and I was expecting a lot more given all the hype. I'm trying to remember what that one X360 game with the genuinely impressive graphics was... all I can remember is it was set in a big frozen wasteland
