Our friends at GTA4.TV discovered while listening to the latest 1UP Yours podcast that Grand Theft Auto IV will run at a contact rate of 30 FPS (frames per second). This is both on the PlayStation 3 version and the Xbox 360 version. What does this mean? It means that you won't be seeing motion as smooth as say the latest Burnout or Call Of Duty, which are both very high-end.

30 FPS however for a game of IV's magnitude is quiet spectacular, and to be honest I can't see anyone complaining. If you do, then perhaps you need to try playing the game rather then picking out it's small flaws which are caused a majority of the time by the system. Rockstar's development is ahead of time itself, we already know that, we wouldn't expect GTA IV to run like a racing game, IV has much more going on at one time then some cars racing down a road.

Mentioned also is that the PlayStation 3 version is a tad-bit behind the Xbox 360 version, however both will grace us on the same day of release. You can hear the podcast here or download via 1UP.
