360 frame rate issues?

[Gaurav42]

is it true that the 360 version has frame issues and pop ins because this is what i have heard on forums and in the IGN review:

 

Past GTA titles have had mild-to-serious framerate issues and technical glitches, because the games were trying to do far more than the PlayStation 2 could handle. While GTA IV is pushing the PS3 and 360 to the limit, it also runs amazingly well. Sure, there are framerate hitches here and there and (particularly on 360) there is some texture pop-in, but it actually runs better than I expected.

 

also they said

 

 

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. Don't worry Xbox owners, the load times are rarely more than 30 seconds and don't occur very often. The slight visual edge goes to PS3, but the 360 is no slouch. Either version will do you proud.

Jimmy_the_bum says minor popups (fairly rare), NO framerate issues.

 

See the 3am archive from this morning.

I've seen it played on 360, it looks good. No need to worry, dont exagerate it. Its not really even worth mentioning, the games so good, you wont be thinking about a hicup every five muntes or so..

no i know it will be great i was just checking and there hasnt been a single GTA not loaded with glitches, but they still have been the best game series ever (in my opinion)
