Full-screen option not available in Xbox 360 version.
In the process of making our GTA 4 comparison video we've noticed one major difference between the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game - there is no full-screen video mode for in-game TV in the Xbox 360 version.
We're not sure why - maybe it's because the video files could be stored in higher quality on the Blu-ray disc - but there is an option to watch TV shows in full screen (well, as near as) in the PS3 version of GTA 4. This feature is missing from the Xbox 360 version, with the player forced to view what's on the box in a small viewing area.
It's not a massive blow to the Xbox 360, but some of the short TV shows are certainly worth a look and we'd much rather watch them in full screen rather than strain our eyes viewing the smaller Xbox 360 version.
Look out for our full comparison very soon, but in the mean time head over to our 10/10 GTA 4 review.

That is weird... There are 2 360 versions and 2 PS3 versions in my house... I will have a look and maybe brag a little bit. I am starting to wish PS3 had DLC now though. It's such a great game.

Oh yeah course it can run on a PS2. Sony Fanboys pah. have fun with your 8 core CPU's that can only be logically accessed one at a time.
hmmm whats more powerful, 8 cores one at a time. or 3 cores all at once?
You tell me.

GTA series has always had so-so graphical power, why? BECAUSE IT'S A FREAKIN' MASSIVE GAME! they modeled every street, every building, every sign, every car, every human, EVERYTHING, a huge city that's alive and breathes like no other series before or since (okay maybe Mafia). Graphics are an important part of this kind of immersive gameplay and they do deliver. Take a look at the previous games and tell me this isn't a MASSIVE step up graphically.
