Microsoft rants at Sony's broken promises

Comments

Hmm.

We all know who owns EuroGamer, and why they are so desperate to pretend the 360 version of GTA is somehow better. Anyone that's played both versions knows the Eurogamer article to be pure BS. You only have to look at the load time which are much slower on the 360 (something they conviently "forgot" to review), and the massive amounts of pop-up on the 360 version to see how ridiculus their "comparision" is.

Also of interested, if your obvious bias, as PS3 consoles sales jumped more of the back of GTA IV than 360 sales, but you don't bother mentioning that, instead focus on the lesser jump in 360 console sales (which were lower than the PS3 anway).

In Short, PS3 sales were higher than 360 prior to GTA IV launch, and jumped more as a result of GTA IV.

How about Microsoft's broken promise?

The promise of fixing the Xbox360. They havn't honoured that promise yet, after 2 and a half years.

What a bunch of hypocrites.

Death to fanbois

@ Mak:
I'm tired of stupid little fanbois.

If you actually read the article, you will see they commented on the pop-up. Do you like to make a fool of yourself in public or what?

Compare the screen shots and vids, things that cannot be biased as they capture the exact same scene in both, and your'll see the 360 has a SLIGHT edge overall. Rockstar even used 360 preview screenshots before release, they would not do that if they thought the PS3 version looked better.
But both version are extremely equal.
