They must be hating themselves right now! IGN gave BOTH the 360 & PS3 versions a 10, so the 360 MUST be in the inferior version.

And when it comes down to exclusive DLC for the 360 version... poor, poor MS...

Lol. Thats a good point huh? In the past, IGN have given different scores to different versions of games when they were better on the 360.

The difference here must be so minute if they still gave them the same (perfect) score.


But they said that scores of 10 can hide flaws and do not indication perfection, so 2 scores of 10, unlike ANY other numerical scores, cannot be interpreted as identical. You have to look to the text of the article, then.

The 360 version of GTA IV is a fucking great game, it appears. It's just that the PS3 version looks and loads better. Sorry.

Hey, what happened to that thread you just started, starcraft? ;)


SDF burned it to hell and it got locked lol.

You create a thread titled "Predict Sony Fanboys GTAIV arguments!" and then you claim it's the Sony fanboys that caused it to get locked? The title alone was enough to raise some serious red flags.

As for the 10 vs 10 argument, maybe they were just unable to give the ps3 version a higher score? Honestly, if the game is so awesome that it warrants a 10, it would be impossibile to give another game even more awesome a higher score, simply because that is the ceiling of possible scores. And they're not going to remove points from a game that they consider to be "the greatest game since Ocarina of Time" simply to point out that another version is better.

And you could say "the differences are so small, it doesn't even matter", but that's what we've been saying since the ps3 launched, with games like Madden receiving not so nice ps3 ports. I completely understand some people wanting a bit of "payback", as it were.

This is essentially what I said in another thread about GTA that starcraft derailed. 10 is the ceiling for scores, so you can't go HIGHER than it, but at the same time, they aren't going to lower the 360 score just to show that  the PS3 version runs better, because GTA is a "10" game
