Hmm just from that still image with the cop cars, it looks so much for vibrant on PS3 and a bit washed out on 360.

I noticed on the one where they were flying the small plane that the sun looked more vibrant and you could actually see it on the PS3. Maybe they upped the graphics slightly at the cost of a couple of FPS where the 360 will get a constant 30.
 
Pretty strange that Giant Bomb have giving it a 5 star review. I am currently listening to last weeks podcast in which Jeff absolutely rips apart GTA IV which he decided to buy and install on his PC before playing V. Saying how dated the mini games/travelling between missions in cars and the going between point A and B was incredibly boring.

Scratching my head a little as to what is so different in V for his opinion to sway so much into 5 star review!!
 
Reading this thread has reminded me how elitist and snobbish some PC gamers can be. It's sad really, they can't appreciate a good game simply because it's not running in Ultra Max details in 1440p res. Very sad indeed.

No offense mate, but this is the PC games section of a major enthusiast PC hardware forum. If we all thought consoles were fine for gaming [graphics], we wouldn't all have nice gaming PC's.

Oh, that's not a problem, but some people seem to have the opinion that graphics are all that matters, which isn't right IMO. Gameplay should always come first. Just like at titles like FTL - amazing game with pretty rubbish graphics. It just comes across as graphical snobbery that if it doesn't look amazing, it's not good enough, which is a pretty shallow attitude.

Edit: I don't want to get into a major debate about it, it just saddens me that some people dismiss games because of how they look. They're doing the games a disservice IMHO.

Its not that graphics stop me from enjoying games.. But at time's on GTA5 the low res and blurry image from just 22fps makes thing hard to see.

It stops it being enjoyable.

The gameplay won't change on the PC version, so maybe we just simply want the best of both worlds?

In games where you can mod graphics, Skyrim, Crysis, Hello Kitty etc, I always push them to the max. I might lose a few frames but I enjoy looking at a world that is beautiful.

Smudgy blurriness and low res textures seen on some console games is not appealing to me at all.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy beautiful games as much as anyone. I installed graphical mods for games like Fallout and Skyrim, and they improved the way the game looked. That didn't increase my enjoyment though, whereas other gameplay altering mods actually did.

Each to their own I guess. I'd rather play a great game and enjoy it for what it is than be put off by graphics that are perhaps less than stellar.

Couldn't agree more. The contrast between this thread and the one in the Console forum is telling.

It's not everybody here tho, thankfully. Some of us like hardware, and like to keep abreast of developments in GFX cards especially, without feeling any kind of resentment towards consoles.

And plenty of us here will be double dipping :)

I double dipped :D I think over the next few months I will be discovering some PS3 exclusive gems so will likely keep the PS3 for a long time even after the GTX780 is ploughing through the PC version of GTA5 :)
