GTA V 360: 2 discs, install from Disc 1 play from Disc 2. PS3: 1 disc, 8GB install
- Thread starter GlamFM
- Start date
Nobody knows, but right from games shown on both platforms at E3 the difference is non-existent.

Still hyped for this game but I'll somehow manage to wait for the PC version having let go of my PS3 and 360.
And the PS3 doesn't have that?
LA Noire wasn't made by Rockstar. It wasn't using the RAGE engine ( Using a custom engine ).

Yeah, but it was a different engine, made by someone else, and was originally a PS3 exclusive.

Not advisable to get a 16gb flash drive. After formatting and partitioning you will be left with around 12gbs. It isn't a huge price leap to 32gbs so that is the bare minimum people should go with. Aside from that there is the principle of the thing, one of the key reasons for playing on consoles is that a game just "works" on the console. I have lost count of the number of times people have said "yeah but you have to upgrade to play games on the PC". This is an Xbox 360 game, if you have an Xbox 360 you should be able to play it without the need to buy additional hardware. It doesn't affect me since I am a PC gamer, but it is strange to see people finding this practice "acceptable".

I'm not convinced they do matter, nor am I convinced that this 'board' discusses down to the pixel for every game. Nor am I convinced that most notice. But this is, once again, my opinion.
The responses were not unexpected? Do you expect insults when expressing your opinion on this board? I certainly do not. It is not indicative to any form of discussion. People make jokes in every thread, but that is not directly insulting other members. Big difference in my eyes. The only reason I see for a person to do this is due to being somewhat upset or slighted by anothers point of view, which is somewhat childish.
But to be clear, my second post was actually agreeing with Sethos, that the statement they would look the same was PR shite, that they have to say. Go back and take a look. Nothing I posted should have made anyone upset or bothered enough to insult another member.
But we have moved on, all is well. I hope my position is clear.

Do we know if we can install the data from both discs? As in installing both discs and leaving disc 2 in the drive, so it's just like a normal installed 360 game but with an extra disc's worth of data. I'm almost positive that's the idea, but you never know with multi-disc 360 games. As far as I know GTAV is the first multi-disc game on the system that you can play from one disc - all the others, like Mass Effect 2 and 3, still make you switch discs even if they're both installed.
Popped in a 750GB 7200RPM 16MB cache 2.5" laptop drive, a WD Scorpio Black in my PS3 Slim a few months ago.
Nice to go from 320GB to 750GB. I almost feel bad for the 360 users and their overpriced HDDs.
I hope the resolution wont be shit like in Read Dead though! Yes, below 720p is bad, really bad.

Just open the bottom of the PS3, remove the old hard drive and put a new one in. Simple as that
If you want to keep save files better make a backup before (either via the backup feature in the system options or by copying the save files to an USB stick/drive, or uploading them to the cloud storage if you have PSN+).

Looking at some of the comments in this thread... what year is it?
But the PS3 has a 'huge player base', too.

Can't wait to get my PS3 version nice they took the time out to answer some questions.
Considering how many people are still on 20GB 360, I'd say it is 2005.

320GB hard drives are $37 on Amazon. Not exactly breaking the bank.

I have a feeling the multiplayer in GTA 5 is going to be fucking DOPE. I can't wait to play golf and B-Ball against fools.
I bought a HDD-less 360 slim and fit my old 20gb HDD in there.
I WISH my launch 360 held out more than a couple of months.
lol, I'am still rocking my 60gb OG ps3 phat, I will have to delete some demos.
It will be pretty ironic if GTA5 is the inferior version on the PS3 after all the bundles and jack tretton saying ''GTA5 will be EPIC on PS3'' .
I pray to the gaming gods that GTA5 is on par and not like RDR was on PS3.
If the PS3 version is superior then that will be just swell.

As far as I know this is the first time Microsoft has allowed a 360 game to have a *mandatory* install. They always insisted that every game was able to be played on a 360 with no HDD. Up to now it's only been optional enhancements, hi-res textures etc.
Halo 4 has a mandatory install
Also, people are losers for buying a console that the manufacturer made available?
That is a pre-rendered cutscene.
Like Uncharted, Last of Us or even previous R* games, only more obvious this time.

This man wins, I lol'ed.
The PS3 is clearly the least fussy version to play (at least for now). No wonder R* made a deal with Sony instead of MS
I take it you're unfamiliar with Halo 4 and Final Fantasy XI?

You can still play the single player campaign without installing. In that case MP is considered "optional".

GTAIV was entirely realtime cutscenes, as was RDR.
It's coming next gen, becuase this doesn't even look in line with the trailers. Seriously. I'm bookmarking this post.

The game could come out on NextGen, but that screenshot is not nextgen. Rockstar has never released shots from a PC or future system and pretended that they were current gen releases. That screen is rendered by the current gen engine, but with precise angles and cleaned up. I wouldn't expect that level of player detail in in-game scenes.

wow this game must be immense.
"A new USB flash drive is recommended to ensure optimum performance."
Does this line mean that a flash drive is preferable over using the harddrive?

Right, but they still used much better assets than what you got in game.
What i mean is that they always used better assets and graphics quality in cutscenes, it doesn't mean it's coming for next gen (although it probably is coming).

Sony fans on defense mode are such a blast to watch.

This is very surprising to me as well, since this a first for GTA and I expected them to continue the trend with GTAV.
Means they must be very confident and probably also because the other prerelease videos for titles like Red Dead and Max Payne were very good PR-wise in generating interest/hype.
