* GTA taken to the next level - in a sense of technological progression and also sophistication.
* Liberty City is a gem to behold. New York expressed in a true Grand Theft Auto style.
* A level of integration between the soundtrack and the dynamics makes this a true "living, breathing city."
* The game deserves the highest score IGN can award, because it doesn't fail to push video gaming to another level.
* Storyline involves morality choices faced by players, giving way to alternative plot endings.
* One of the best integrations of multiplayer in a game, that the reviewer has ever seen.

they said theres a "Heat" style bank shootout within the game which is a mission you'll play time and time again and still feel wowed at the end of it.
it also confirms that because the PS3 installs onto the hard-drive, the load time is faster, theres less pop-in and better anti-aliasing (less jagged, more smoother) on the PS3 although the 360 has richer colors, so its all down to what you want out of this game.
