GTA4 - Image 1


Screenshots found in magazine scans of Grand Theft Auto 4 (PS3, 360) spreads can only go so far. Although the scans do prove useful in fleshing out a lot of details for us, what we want to see right now are actual screens (without the graininess of scanners). Hence, the pics below.

This first batch of screenshots are many and varied. Some of which show Niko, some of which show Liberty City itself. Check out the leaves on the trees, water effects, skyscrapers in the distant horizon, and even down to the pockmarks on Niko's face. Yeah, it's all about the detail here... And for what it's worth, those nighttime screens are looking fab:

I heard that there is gonna be 2 disc's for the 360 version, its gonna be a real pain if your gonna be driving from 1 side of the island to to next.

   Re: Gino D. (QJ. NET Staff) - 2007-05-24
 » yes, some of them are.

some of these screenshots were shown in scans before. ;-)

"I heard that there is gonna be 2 disc's for the 360 version"

We've been told nothing about the number of disks on the 360 version and I'm sure Rockstar are more than capable of working out the best way to bring the game to both consoles.

So let's just focus on the excellent screenshots instead of trying to start pointless flame wars. Ok! :)

Yea, not really the greatest shots, I guess they aren't going for amazing visuals, just more up-to-date. I still don't like the player model, it really lacks a good mesh and texture.

I heard that the PS3 inefficient processor requires this game to have 10 minute loading times.


   Re: Gtauk (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » lol

lol where did you hear that
   by lol (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » are you serious?

Do you really think that the PS3's cell is inefficient that it will have 10 minute load times? I don't think so. What does the CPU have to do with load times? It's more like the disks load times. And Rockstar themselves have said that there will be no load times between islands or when walking into houses etc.

You are just some fu-cking idot that wants to start a flame war. I asume your another 360 ***** sucker. I'd like to see a game like Lair on the 360. You won't because the inefficient and weak CPU in the 360.

"I'd like to see a game like Lair on the 360. You won't because the inefficient and weak CPU in the 360."

You're right he's acting like an idiot and is trying to start a flame war, but that doesn't justify you acting like him with that final comment. :|

I'm pretty sure you're not 'lol' more like crying. For *****'s sake he wasn't making a personal comment about you, you retard. He was JOKING, that's right, making a JOKE. Dumbass. Turn off your computer, you're a scab. He's an idiot for starting a flame war, and you're a *****ing retard for responding. Shut up.

The PS3 screens are the best....360 screens looks like a crap...


   Re: Meh (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » Shutup fanboy!

There are NO PS3 screens and 360 screens! All with have so far are GTA4 screens for both versions.

@Meh
Hum...you cant see the difference...thats bad...you need glasses.

   Re: Meh (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » You're an idiot kid

As far as we know, All of those screenshots could be on the PS3, the 360 or a combination of both. There is NOTHING to say this pic is from the PS3 version and that pic is from the 360 version.

All YOU are doing is deciding to yourself, "Oh, I like that pic, so that must be the PS3 version" and "Nah, I don't like that, so that's the 360".

Which is typical fanboy stupidity. You need to work on getting your IQ up into double figures.

   Re: Meh (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » And another point

Given what we've seen from some multi-format games so far (such as Splinter Cell), what you consider to be the 'best' screens may actually be the 360 version! Ever thought of that? So you can't just assume that the PS3 will look the best when we know nothing about each screenshot other than what we see.

I expect they'll look virtually identical upon release anyway, like many multi-format games.

Thats too bad....because I can clearly see the difference between 360 and PS3 screens... You need glasses :/

   Re: Gamer (Unregistered) - 2007-05-25
 » ^^^ Give it a break 'Me'!

'Meh' is right, we don't know which pictures are which, and we don't know if we're seeing screens from both versions or just one.

Why don't you tell us which pictures are PS3 and which are 360 if you think you're so smart, and above all, state the reasons. Otherwise, stfu and stop wasting people's time.

BTW, one of the 360 screen has a glitch in the streets... :/
Does the 3redlightsofdoom obfuscated your vision? :/

 » What is wrong with all of you people?

Why do you keep responding "meh"? It's pretty obvious "me" is just joking. It isn't funny in the slightest, but it's obvious he is... He knows there have been no shots where it was stated which system they were taken on, he's just trying to piss you off.

Me, you may have be joking, but nothing I've read from those who responded to you suggest they are fanboys.

You're either a kid with nothing else to do, or you're an adult who needs to a life. :|

 » It'll be great

When we can have peace and harmony between the two consoles. Everyone knows that the xbox360 is an overheating piece of plastic. You'll probably go through 5 360's just to beat GTA4. Then you'll probably break your DVD drive after having to swap out the 4 disks that come with the game. Go PS3, why? "Home", a better graphics card Nvidia>ATI, cell pwns and your ps3 will last longer. HAHA halo3 sux.......


   Re: qw (Unregistered) - 2007-05-26
 » Nope

Actually, the ATI card in the 360 is technically superior to the Nvidia card in the PS3. I prefer Nvidia over ATI as well, but it's the truth.

For someone who wants harmony between the two consoles, you sure do like to sh*t-talk and lie about the 360...

BTW, GTA is rumored to be a 100 hour game, and I racked up over 400 hours in Oblivion on my launch system.

"Actually, the ATI card in the 360 is technically superior to the Nvidia card in the PS3. I prefer Nvidia over ATI as well, but it's the truth."

Correct (and I have an NVidia card in my PC). But facts are facts, the GPU in the 360 is better.

In addition, there is more memory available for 360 games than PS3 games, because the OS and video of the PS3 requires 52MB *more* memory than the 360 (84MB compared to 32MB). Perhaps the extra memory explains why games like SC looked better on the 360. That said, I'm sure with good coding and the devs making good use of the advantages of the 360 and PS3, both versions of GTA4 should look about the same.

GTA4 looks awsome, cant wait.

As for the 360 Fanboys, good to see they frequent the PS3 section of QJ so much, all this interes is good for the PS3.
