But skip said "the rockstar guys told us they THINK that the PS3 LOOKS SLIGHTLY better, but it really was hard to tell".

So, he says some of the rockstar tech guys THINKS it looks slightly better, but like everyone else in other previews, he couldn't tell the difference between both versions graphically (hence the reason he didn't even bother to mention it in his preview!), and yet this makes the PS3 version superior to you? Nothing else about the game matters? R-i-g-h-t! *rolleyes*

>"the idea is simply not to support any corporation that aims to strip us from our right in free-online gaming, it is the responsibility of each one of us that we do not fund anyone that aims to control us"

No Madlax, the idea you need to understand is the RIGHT of everyone to CHOOSE whether they want to pay for such a service or not. It's not up to you to decide what is or isn't right for everyone else. If you don't want to pay on principle, then that's fine, it's YOUR choice and I respect that, but then you should respect the right of others to pay for such a service if they choose to, and not to resort to childish comments such as "i see that many are already willing to bend over".

I do agree it is childish, but then so are half the comments in this section, and these particular words were said to me before in here...so am i the only one to be crusified for them ? ;)

Firstly, 'two wrongs don't make a right', I've had insults thrown at me here and in other forums, but that doesn't make it right for me to throw those same insults at other people. Secondly, looking at your post history, I notice an anti-MS/anti-360 theme running through your previous posts, so please don't act like you're the innocent victim here. ;)

Looking forward to getting this (like most people). With a bit of luck I should be able to get mine this week through my friend who works for a games shop. He can normally get me the games when they are delivered to the shop (Most new releases hit the stores on a Tuesday for sale on the Friday)

As of Saturday he didn't have any info on deliveries for this coming week. Normally they get a manifest in the morning so he is going to text me if GTA is scheduled to be delivered early this week.

Here's hoping :)

Well... if the 360 was "slightly better", I'm sure the 360 fanboys would be all over it in a "psp3lol" rage :)

Personally I'm getting the "slightly better" version.

Nope.

Still can't muster any enthusiasm for this.

Correct, I agree 100% :) 360 fanboys would be all over it just as PS3 fanboys currently are, but the keyword in that statement is "FANBOYS".

Gaming FANS on the otherhand, i.e. those with enough common sense not to distort and exaggerate facts in order to support their favorite console, are able to read that quote from 'skip' and see it for what it actually means. ;)

True - but it will be interresting to read some more technical focused reviews and comparisons when the embargo is lifted later this week :)
