Default [TGDAILY] Sony may update PS3 to fix GTA IV problems

Quote:
Foster City (CA) - Soon after Rockstar Games released Grand Theft Auto IV on the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, owners of the PS3 version began complaining about problems with its lower HD resolution and complications with online modes.

People called out to Rockstar to release a patch to the game, but so far it has not done so. Now it appears the issue is with the PS3 hardware itself, so a fix would need to come directly from Sony.
http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/37424/98/

Then why does the 360 also have problems?

Both PS3 and 360 has the problem with the 'infinite' loading time. I had that once, and after the 'hotfix' I never saw it ever again.

A patch already came out on the PS3 for GTA4 and it solved several problems for me I believe as I cannot get them to reoccur again.

Why Rockstar doesn't continue to make a PC version is beyond me. The whole damn thing started on the PC.

there has been reports of the 360 dieing just sitting there on. It's not likely that you can directly connect any game play to hardware problems. The 360 is known to have strange issues that Microsoft cant even seem to get fixed.

The instances of consoles dieing are probably from stupid people who dont know how to place their consoles so they dont over heat, or they play the game for 30hurs straight and it just dies, and the bituch and moan about it claiming its the game...

Rockstar has noted that they don't have any issues running the game in house. None. And they freakin made the game, and I'm sure they played the hell out of the game testing it. Still, they had no issues at all...

It is so not the game. It the person not know how to take care of there hardware, and blaming it in the game because they cant connect the dots properly.
