<em>Can you tell the 360 and PS3 versions of GTAIV apart?</em></p>
<p>You may recall Jeronimo Barrera, Vice President of Product Development at Rockstar, saying:</p>
<blockquote><p>“It&#8217;s really no surprise to anybody that the PS3 was definitely a contributing factor to [the delay].”</p></blockquote>
<p>Although, with the extra development time granted between the October 2007 release date and the <a href="http://www.ripten.com/2008/01/24/grand-theft-auto-iv-polished-and-prepped-for-a-spring-release/">recently announced</a> April 29th, 2008 ship date, it appears that they have really pulled it together, and now go as far as to say that both versions are identical (sans the 360 exclusive DLC). <span id="more-3151"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Now, we&#8217;re neck and neck. That&#8217;s not an issue anymore. But back then that was something we were taking into account.&#8221; said by Barrera.</p></blockquote>
<p>He further clarified that PS3 owners out there, all 9.43 million, can rest easy knowing that you’re not going to be receiving a crippled version of their favorite game from last-gen. <!-- adman --></p>
