Once GTA4 hits 360 shelves all the NA casuals will see that they can play Halo, Madden, and GTA all on one system. This will create a sales deficit that Sony simply cannot overcome in NA. Better hope for a loyal Japanese and EU market, cows!

Madden and GTA are both on PS3 so I don't know what you're talking about buddy. Warhawk, RFOM, KZ2, MGS4, and GT5 are also on PS3.

I think we can come to the conclusion that GTA will push more 360's, looking at how well Madden sold on the 360 compared to the PS3.

I have a 360 but im buying GTA4 for my PS3 cause Blu Ray is cool!!! Plus having a atack of games next to the beautiful PS3 just looks better than a stack of games next to my Pro 360 with the chrome disc tray..

GTA has never been exclusive, and besides, it's old hat. PS3 is getting Rockstar's new IP exclusively, and it's supposed to be just as huge as GTA.

Exactly the point I was making. Madden and GTA will sell more on 360, because of higher userbase and cheaper console cost.

PS2 was GTA's launch platform. So your point makes absolutely no sense. What you guys fail to realize is that beside the obvious researched fanboys most casuals are still unaware of an xbox360 GTA release.

Or they can Have PGR3, PGR4, Forza2 and Halo 3 as well as madden and GTA. Sounds like 360 is the obvious choice.

The choice is obvious. There is no wait and see. The cheaper console will win. Except in Xbox360's case its cheaper and superior in software.

Well, if you don't think that MGS4 will sell consoles then your way of! I know just to many people just waiting for the MGS4, it will be one of the biggest system sellers for sure my friend! GT5, well GT is the top 10 most sold frachies (dunno how to spell it but:P) so maybe not console selller, but it sells good! KZ2, maybe a console or two...:)

Possibly, but we also have to take into consideration where the majority of the fanbase lies. But, a lot of PS2 fans have migrated to the 360.

Well, at PS3, you get FFXIII, FFVSXIII, MGS4, keep on talking? I tell you PS3 is the obvious choice for spending your money on the longer term...

I think most people are putting their money on MGS4, because MGS2 boosted the PS2 very nicely. If you notice MGS3 didn't get the sales MGS2 did, although MGS2, IMO is the worst one.

Yes you heard me. Superior in software. Superior in quality and quantity. If you want to argue this then you already fail. If you want to bring up future software titles unreleased then you fail. As of right now the 360 is the software king (cept for PC)

whatever i think most people are going to want to play GTA on the ps3 because thats where it originated from. Alot of people are used to the dualshock and arent going to want to change, same goes for DMC imo.

What do you mean I dont make sense..If you didnt get what I said than thats your own fault but to make it more clear so can you understand it, is thatgrand theft auto is alreadyknown as a playstation game and yeah i know it launches on the Ps2 but later on the xbox and if you look at how much they soldyou can see whatI mean, not alot of ppl are going to buy Gta for the xbox360 so I dont know why your saying that Gta will seal Ps3's fate..Why do yo think Sony didnt fight forit to be exclusive because they know it will sell better on their system.

Excuse me? GTA4 will sell consoles.. It sold consoles for the PS2.. You are kidding yourself if you think GTA4 won't be almost as big as Halo3.. Sorry but Sony made a huge mistake giving MS GTA4

Others will see Madden, CoD 4, Resistance, Killzone, MGS, Final Fantasy, Gran Trusimo, Ratchet and Clank, DMC, and GTA all on the PS3.

So what if some of them are on the 360, they still are all playable on the PS3.

Sony's/PS3's fate was already sealed when the $600 price was announced. Over 90% of the PS2's sales came at $200 and below.

The end of Sony's dominance in the industry is already happening (check NPDs) and will become even more clear by the end of the year. At this rate, the PS3 will be lucky to sell 60mil units before the PS4 is out.

Because casuals don't play MGS4, and the other two games are on the 360?

Anyway, if Microsoft clearly advertise that the 360 version has the extra content (the episodic missions), then they'll probably have an easy win with this one.
