Two things I am most interested in for GT5 are:

1. Wii U release because I want to see what a sandbox game can do with more than 512MB of RAM!!! They are seriously the most handicapped genre on consoles today.

2. Next generation/PC release information for the above reason. These consoles are seriously long in the tooth and having 5-10 times the performance to throw at this game would be awesome.

How many discs on the Xbox 360? I suspect that it'll be best on the Wii U followed by the PS3 unless they give you the option of doing an install on the 360 and then it'll probably be Wii U > PS3=360.

Your going to have to wait till next gen, I doubt a GTA5 port to Wii u would be any more impressive than the GTA SA from PS2 to Xbox.

Well the verdict there was it was a cleaner looking game with less pop-in and faster load times. I would predict that with at 2.5x the drive speed and 2.5* the useable RAM (remember PS3 only has 400 and something MB after the OS) the game ought to be better on the Wii U. The Wii U also has that funny tablet controller which might give some extra options as well.

Maybe a GTA built from the ground up on Wii u would be interesting but just a port would not be anything great.The Controller is the most interesting part about a GTA5 Wii U, other wise why not just wait for a PC port if you want faster load times , less pop in?
