Content is king here, and until the extent of the Microsoft-exclusive DLC becomes apparent, the two games serve up an equally superb range of entertainment.Įven in terms of internet functionality the games are like for like. Yes there are some significant differences between the two games which we'll be going into in more depth later on in the feature, but it's important not to lose focus of the most important issue - that this release is an astonishing achievement. As one leading developer said to me the other day, "I think this game, like Crackdown before it, changes everything." Quite. Having spent the last six days of my life playing both versions simultaneously, painstakingly matching up the gameplay and recording over 500GB of video captures in the process, everything in Tom's original review stands regardless of the platform you're playing it on. I think the most important thing to say right from the get-go is that there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that Grand Theft Auto IV is a 10/10 game no matter which console you own. Use these if you want to link to our vids 'elsewhere'.Ī sampler of what is to come can be found right here:Īs there's a colossal amount of stuff to discuss, argue and insult each other about, we've broken down the feature into these areas: Every video is embedded into the article, but there's a full-size, higher resolution link to the same material over at Eurogamer TV, offering a good 30 percent more screen area, with each clip reframed to make the most of the additional digital acreage. On top of that, there's an extra-special bonus too. Most of the clips are run at 50 percent speed too, again making the job of comparison that much easier, with more bandwidth dedicated to picture quality. Unless otherwise stated, one pixel in the Eurogamer player corresponds to one pixel on your HDTV. Our vids are encoded in supreme quality h264, but more than that, we've zoomed in on the action so you can actually see the difference.

There's still the same 720p and 1080p 24-bit RGB screengrabs taken from both versions of the game of course, this time using the new Digital Foundry TrueHD capture station, so why not take a look with the first of our galleries, featuring general gameplay shots?Ĭomparison videos appear to be all the rage, even though they're mostly low-res blur-a-thons that demonstrate absolutely nothing, so we decided to take a different approach.
The biggest game of the year deserves the most in-depth face-off piece yet produced by anyone, anywhere, so we've massively upgraded the scope of our coverage and the amount of 'assets' you can view. But mere digital incendiaries are not enough for a release of this magnitude.
The cheat codes for EFLC differ from those for GTA 4 but they too are dialled from the phone via player’s keyboard and cheats are available for weapons, vehicles and health for both episodes.Even without the Eurogamer comparison feature, the internet has been set ablaze by GTA IV PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 face-off discussions.
