Multiplayer
On Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 you have access to 16-player online multiplayer over a plethora of game modes, in solo and team-based varieties. In both games the multiplayer is accessed via the in-game mobile phone, allowing you to seamlessly switch from the single-player campaign to online multiplayer. The same game modes are included in each, as is in-game voice chat. Online performance seems comparable, although we have suffered numerous disconnects while playing on PS3, which hasn't happened on the Xbox 360.
Verdict:
This really comes down to which console most of your friends are going to be playing the game on. Many of the multiplayer game modes are best played with people you know, so having the same version will greatly increase your enjoyment.
Final Score
Let's make one thing clear: both versions of GTA 4 are deserving of a 10/10 review score. Still, if you own both consoles and want to buy the best version, we'd have to recommend the Xbox 360 game. While both games are more or less functionally the same, the Xbox 360 game looks significantly sharper to our eyes and features more natural lighting. Add in additional points, such as a forced install on PS3 and additional content coming exclusively to the Xbox 360, and Microsoft's console comes out on top.
