What he said about performance because of the install was a complete lie lol, but no doubt both versions are looking great.
@below
To cut a story short, installs don't improve performance, only loading times, it's Blu-ray's seek times that is what making PS3 games have installs, performance and quality of the game is the CPU + GPU's job.
@disagrees
If you think installs do improve performance, give me a link.
Good to see someone make a comment about OpenGL lol
MainEventX is actually correct people, OpenGL ES 2.0 (RSX supports that) will merge or merged into OpenGL Mt Evans, giving the PS3 games graphics like you never seen before!!, DirectX 10...is....dieing!!.
"Next Generation OpenGL “Mount Evans” will leverage OpenGL ES 2.0"
Mass Effect has the worst pop-in I've ever seen, texture loading etc (no offence), Gears 1 had pop-ins (I think). So it's basicly installations = loading times, in my opinion.
@DJ
Blu-ray isn't special, but different, it seem...
Didn't some of them seem similar on the other GTA games?, when I played GTA III on my PS2, I remember seeing pop-ins with the road being transparent and disappearing while driving, it wasn't a defective GPU as my other games played fine.
No offence, but I just lol @ people when they say the PS3 version runs better only because of the install.
Just to let you know, installing doesn't mean anything when it comes to performance, it's Blu-ray's confusions (which devs will overcome) is why PS3 games are having them. 360 has no install because why?, Rockstar know what their doing with DVD9, they've known since last gen.
Install's is only to improve loading times THAT's IT, it does not change anything else ...
woah?, wtf :/
@Jamaicangmr
Agreed, imo, the 360 should stay upscaled to 1080p, seeing as it has frame rate issues and such, however, I don't think there should really be a problem with the PS3 version to go 1080p, but I could see a drop in frame rates, but someone did exactly the same with COD4, and said there were absolutely no frame rate drops, so hopefully, the PS3 version can pull it off.

I don't think installations improve the frame rate etc, it improves the loading times, Blu-Ray + Hard Drive streaming improves performance. So basicly if developers started understanding the Blu-Ray technology before, GTA IV wouldn't of needed an install.
I believe they both upscale from 720p
However
I just read this quote
"Note: to enable 1080p on the PS3 the user must select custom under display settings on the PS3 dashboard and only tick the 1080p box. This will force the game to boot in 1080p. If the display settings are set to automatic the game will boot in 720p, NOT in 1080p."
hmm, although I can't be sure.
These issues on the 360 version seems familiar with Mass Effect, it could be the hardware, I'm not bashing the 360 or anything, just my opinion...
Note: Xbox 360 version reviewed.
Downers:
Occassional frame-rate issues

Interesting find sammy, you know Swedish :P
and I have some news for you, fellow Sony Soldiers :D.

I read this on the TeamXbox review
"I’ll take achievements over a couple higher resolution textures any day."
LOL
"I’ll take achievements over a couple higher resolution textures any day."
Great score
You heard it all here folks, the 360 version has frame rate dips and has visual glitches.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
same for both burnt and retail
Don't forget that more vibrant colors (like the 360 version has) can be referred to cartoony lol.
