Guest Jordan Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Its a joke that you can't use Maestro on XBLM or Wii Shop Channel. You can on the PSN ¬_¬
ReZourceman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 What about a debit card? Id heard you cannot... Like Jordan says. Id love to know the reason for it. Seems ridiculous. Don't you have to be 18 to have a Maestro anyway?
Nintenchris Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Premiums are now £189.99 at Amazon and Cores/Arcade (whatever they call it now) are £149.99 get buying! Hmm i wonder how many new gamers or people who have been holding out for GTA will chose a PS3 over a 360 now?
Cube Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Hmm i wonder how many new gamers or people who have been holding out for GTA will chose a PS3 over a 360 now? As in the ones who don't know about the extra online modes and exclusive DLC? With the debit card thing I just assumed that if some worked then all will.

Hmm i wonder how many new gamers or people who have been holding out for GTA will chose a PS3 over a 360 now? Cores are cheaper than Wii. Premium is £9.99 more than a Wii. How much are Elite's going for? £250?
Nintenchris Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Yeah Elite's are £250. I cant see Nintendo hurrying to drop the price of the Wii unless it suddely stops selling, but what are Sony gonna do? GTA's just round the corner and i dont care what anyone says.. there gonna lose out because of the price diffrence.
Guest Jordan Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 40GB PS3 is currently sat at £300... This is a very agressive move by Microsoft with GTA4 just around the corner.
S.C.G Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Is either version of GTAIV technically superior in any noticable way? word is the 360 version is currently "better" due to exclusive downloadable content, is that correct? (half considering getting GTAIV and want to decide on a format)
Guest Jordan Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Well, we don't know. The PS3 version is bound to have a giant install, since the blu ray drive is pretty slow at loading large volumes of data. The 360 game has to fit on a single disc so might have lower resolution textures, but better comparable loading times due to its quick DVD drive. We'll see how it goes!
Cube Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 My guess is that the PS3 version will have a slightly better framerate and the 360 version will have slightly better colour depth.
Bren Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 ha, i hope they release a GTA 4 pack for like £200, that wud truly fuck up ps3's gta sales i thinks
Nintenchris Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Ha the price has gone back up at Amazon.. im guessing they jumped the gun! but its gonna happen anyway.
ReZourceman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 As in the ones who don't know about the extra online modes and exclusive DLC? With the debit card thing I just assumed that if some worked then all will. Oh right, I didnt know they accepted any debit cards. Which ones do they accept?
Cube Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Oh right, I didnt know they accepted any debit cards. Which ones do they accept? They accept Visa Debit cards.
ReZourceman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 They accept Visa Debit cards. O RLY. Hmmm. May need to see if I can obtain one.
Caris Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 As in the ones who don't know about the extra online modes and exclusive DLC? With the debit card thing I just assumed that if some worked then all will. There's no extra online modes just DLC.
ReZourceman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Take a guess, its 2 letters and a number. Whats the point in that? Pros PS3 box art looks slightly better. Cons X360 has better controller X360 has DLC X360 has live and easy to manager friends list/more intuitive voice communications and controls.
Tales Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 One of the reason why I chose 360 over PS3 was because of the extra content in the 360 version of GTAIV.
ReZourceman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I honestly cannot understand why anyone who has a choice would get PS3 version over 360 version. It honestly boggles my mind. The whole point of having multi consoles is so you can get exclusives and get the best versions of games....actually theres one reason I could understand, thats if someone has all friends with PS3 but no 360 (lolwtf) and wants to play online with his/her fellow n00bs.
Caris Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Okay, every single member on this forum who knows me listen. I seem to say this to people every other day and i'm sick. I do not like my 360. The only reason I'm keeping it if for Gears 2 and Banjo. That's it, it's underneath my bed sitting them happily till one of them is out. Hell I'm even thinking of just getting rid of it i don't know. Everything else will be for my PS3. I can live without the extra feature hear and there. Now please everyone stop asking me this stupid question.
gaggle64 Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 There are some excellent applications and franchises on the the PS3 (Little Big World, Home, GT4, MGS4, the big Final Fantasy epics, etc.) which definitely make the PS3 a very attractive, especially with the most recent price cuts and Blu-Ray's triumph in the HD format war. I went for 360 because of it's low price and pre-existing library of cheap games, but if you've got the cash the PS3 is no doubt a worthy investment.
fex Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) Check out that agressive pricing, the fact a Premium 360 is ?9.99 more than a wii is insane. I still don't think Nintendo are in any pressure to drop their price in reaction to Microsofts moves. But my god for ?10 your getting a lot more for you money ( in terms for hardware ) ________ SHEMALE YOUNG Edited April 28, 2011 by fex

Okay, but that's a lot of fantastic games you're not playing.
