The new Grand Theft Auto is already out in some places and probably the most important question people are going to ask is which version is better, the PS3 or the 360? Kotaku tried both versions and have gone ahead and compared the two and the results seem very close. I’ve been wanting to get a PS3 for a while now but it looks like there isn’t a game out yet that makes it worth getting over my 360. [Link]
Update: Game Center in Rihab Complex in Hawalli are selling Grand Theft Auto IV for KD25

The release date in the US is the 29th..is it out here yet?
Its already out in the U.S but not here .. they should have it in Rihab later today or tomorrow (thats what they said at least). As for the game I’d go for the 360 version .. the gameplay and graphics are practically identical so the 360 would be the better choice in my opinion (I have a PS3 too but the 360’s controller is so much better plus you get achievement points)
it out since yesterday but thier selling it for 35 kd now
i always prefer the ps3 over xbox i dont know but i love my ps3
Im still sticking to my XBOX until Metal Gear Solid 4 is out
is this a coincidence ?

Xbox 360
GTA! GTA! GTA! (Jumping up and down with joy)
Now lets finish with the danm elections so I can dedicate my time to GTA greatness. PS3 rocks…blue ray DVD alone is enough reason…GTA, GTA!!
I’m getting ps3 version, only because I don’t have a 360.
You can use this very scientific table to make the selection:
———————————————————————————-
Own XBOX 360 Own PS3 Version to choose
———————————————————————————-
Yes No XBOX 360 Yes Yes XBOX 360
No Yes PS3
———————————————————————————–

Jeez. My very scientific table looks very unscientific without line breaks 🙁

that blogger got it for KD25 from Game Center
I bought a PS3 last night from Rehab. They were selling black market GTA IVs for 45KD! Who would buy a game for 45 KD when he/she can buy it two days later for 25 KD!? I’m a GTA maniac, but I CAN wait TWO days. Apparently, a lot were willing to buy the game for 45 KD. When I was there (9:30PM) There was only one copy left! Very funny stuff.
On the subject of which version to buy, IGN recommends the PS3 version.
On another note, if someone (such as myself) was buying a PS3 FOR GTA IV, I recommend you get one now because Rehab will increase the prices of the PS3s. Very funny market we have, eh?
What the hell are you guys talking about? The GTA is coming out on the 29th in the U.S not the 28th.
25 K.D??!! It’s sold for 16 K.D in the U.S.
I reserved my copy of the special edition (the bag, music CD, pictures book, a metal box…etc.) for 25K.D
Salah it already came out in kuwait yesterday
hmm looks like the only thing the PS3 does slightly better in GTA 4 is the pop up and loading but bc u have to wait through a retarded 7 minute install! LMAO.
framerate and quality are the most important thing for me in terms of graphics and looks like the xbox has the edge again with a more steady framerate and cleaner graphics with a better anti-alising filter. they also forgot to mention xbox can run your custom soundtrack which the PS3 cannot nevermind the achievements and VERY important DLC.
10 am went to rihab and it was sold for 45-50kd
10 pm went to rihab again i bought it for 24 kd !! and when i said to the guy ok im gonna take it…he took it out of his pants !!
BTW GTA 4 DO NOT SUPPORT NORMAL TV’S !!! IT MUST BE AN HDMI TV !!
so dnt go buying gta and ending up returing it cuz their just gonna pay u 9 kd cuz its used…but those jerks will wrap it up again in plastic and sell like new
a friend just called me, he bought it 15 minutes ago for KD25 from Game Center
yeah and btw…incase ur wondering how do Rihab have them before their worldwide lunch in 29/4..mmm those copies were stolen from the factory that produces them !! and they were shipped to kuwait !…only 53 copies of gta are in kuwait !
Stolen? hehehe yeah right. It’s because stores/distributors sell it to other parties before the release date so they get ready to sell it on the actual release date. Of course that would never happen in Rihab.
The Xbox 360 is THE version you should get if you have a choice basically for two main reasons:
1-Better Multiplayer experience
2-Exclusive downloadable content, and it’s not ‘new car/new weapon’ type of content, it’s a WHOLE NEW city.
^^^
I agree on the DLC but the multiplayer is the same thing
and this is gonna be the ps3 year no doubt
MGS4>>>im playing the metal gear online beta and it kicks ass
killzone2
LittleBigPlanet
soccom
haze
the only game that im waiting on the 360 and will make me buy it is ninja gaiden 2
OOH and about GTA 4
my brother bought it yesterday for kd 25 the funny thing is that when he entered the shop the clerk told him to give him the money then he must go to the near Bqala outside the complex there he will provide a password for the irany guy who works their and then the irany will give him the game
sounds like dealing with drugs not videogames
am worried about mgs4 i think the price will be also near 40…..
wow this page is like world war 3… i think im gonna get myself a copy!!
q8dizer,
What I meant by the multiplayer is that XBOX LIVE has a better infrastructure and thus it might provide a better experience, especially since a lot of PS3 games lately have been released with already broken multiplayer, but then again maybe there wouldn’t be problems at all.
PS3!
Xbox 360!!!!!
Free games ftw.
If you already have a 360, dont get it on the ps3, because you can buy extra content that is only available on the 360. Microsoft paid like $500 million to get Rockstar to make DLC and such xbox exclusive. Plus you have the added fun of achievments.
hahaaa wtf q8dizer that’s hilarious
A&B
OK , you have a good point there
25 KD yesterday..after the official release its gona drop to 20 KD
Why is it illegal to sell GTA IV here in Kuwait? It’s not like they have common sense…to ban such games cause they’re not that smart here.
well is it available for PC version,well i played GTA San andreas and completed also and that was awesome,well for 25kd i don’t think so i am gonna buy but i will see if i could get a pirated DVD for 1 or 2kd or may be i will download from the internet.
Do they have the special edition? and what’s it’s price?
Went to rihab today.. no one had GTA4 for the xbox 360.. first shop i visited was game center.. they said they didnt have it. The rest of the shops said theyll have it in the next 2 days.
P.S…. thanks guys for making me waste my time in rehab complex.
MARK… I think this video will answer all your questions:
