why thanky you Ryan

here is the latest...

Ok. We have word from Gametrailers!

“On Friday, May 9th Gametrailers.com originally published this comparison video and accidentally placed footage of the PlayStation 3 version of GRID where the Xbox 360 footage should have been. We deeply regret this mistake and apologize to our users and the companies involved. Rest assured that measures have been put in place to ensure that this never happens again.”

And here is the ‘new’ comparison vid… http://www.gametrailers.com/player/33799.html?type=flv

personally I think there is a difference, if I had to say, then I would say I actually prefer the 360 version on these vids, but saying that the difference isnt enough to stop me from buying GRiD... if I buy it at all.

As for what you said Ryan, I agree.. the industry will always have its fanboys, but some take it upon themselves to lie down and die for Sony, noble yes.. also a bit silly. The console will speak fro itself. As long as people follow Hideo, Polyphony, Infinity Ward and what seemingly what Guerrilla have done (plus others… ) ..then the PS3 will have a mightier voice than any high pitch geeky fanboy who chooses to defend their console will have.

Im all for defending something if its being shown in an unfair light or if the evidence is wrong, but just to start something off because they feel a need to talk, maybe they should from time to time not say anything.

The comparison videos from the past have been proven to be fake (apparently, but it’s not like what GT showed was terrible in the first place), the last game they were slated for was Burnout, but because you couldn’t get same exact times of the day for both consoles, they both looked different.

Maybe GT should just stop doing these vids?

Either way you look at it, this latest issue was a total embarrassment, no other word for it.
