If you're looking for something to moan about this morning, here it is; the PlayStation 3 version of GTA IV features a five minute mandatory install.
A 1UP writer posted about the install on theNeoGAFforum, after playing the PS3 version at Rockstar's iron fortress.
Five minutes isn't nearly as bad as22, but it's still been enough to send the internet frothing on the forums. We can't see what the fuss is about, personally. Doesn't every PS3 game feature an install these days?
As for the Xbox 360 version, there are also rumours this morning that that version will feature an "optional" hard drive install, although that's still very much unconfirmed.
We're currently awaiting reply from the lovely chaps at Rockstar about the hard drive controversy, and will let you know whatthey haveto say.
