Not too worried about the lower resolution, some of the best looking games are sub 720p, COD4 and Halo 3 looks pretty good SP as well and both are under 720p. PGR3 is pretty jagged though. Well I'll be checking it out tonight (60" 120hz, SXRD) and my friends 360 (50" Plasma)version eventually as well. I'm sure they are close enough that it doesn't really matter. Either way it sounds like the perfect 10's is a bit more than it deserves, especially after some screen grabs I've seen. Granted the scope of the city is huge so it might be a big reason why they are still giving it 10's. In the end the videos make it look very fun on either system.
Funny stuff is seeing people magnify 400% and comparing shots and so many contradicting anecdotal posts on which one looks better.:0

"After reading the PS3 is at 620p with no AA but less texture pop-in I'm completely torn on which platform to buy. 720p + 2xAA but more pop-in on the 360...Argh."

Interesting. I did watch some gif's of the texture pop-in Magic Tree and some others, pretty funny stuff.
I'll have to check out that in game tv feature as well when I get it. Probably something like The Darkness had but more entertaining hopefully.
GTA 4 in-game TV better on PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV for Xbox 360 News - VideoGamer.com
A post I read with snippits from some of the bigger review sites:
Quote:
IGN
"For those wanting to know which version looks better, the edge goes to the PS3. The textures and framerate are comparable, but the PS3 has far less pop-in. The 360 has richer colors, but the PS3 has better anti-aliasing making it look a little cleaner. Because GTA IV can preload onto the PS3 hard drive, the in-game loads are faster."
EGM
"PS3 or 360 version: PS3 version looks slightly more vibrant and sharp"
1UP
"None of these little flaws take away from Liberty City's breathtaking vistas, incredibly varied scenery, and lived-in look (the PS3 version has the slightest visual edge, plus motion-control support"
Game Reactor
"Swedish Gamereactor mentioned in their 10/10 review that they were pretty surprised regarding the difference between the PS3 and 360-versions. The PS3-version features better colours, contrast, load times and what looks to be better resolution textures. The game also looks sharper and has a more stable fps."
GameSpy
"For those who have to decide between the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, we should mention that these flaws are slightly less noticeable in the PS3 game."
Kotaku
"The PS3 version, with its required HDD install, loads missions a couple seconds faster and decreases pop-in. The Xbox 360 version can suffer from some very noticeable texture loading, as things like trees, vehicles and building signs will regularly pop-in as one tools about town. It can be distracting, especially during high speed chases"
