if you click on a feature or news article it is always ps2 for gta sa related stories,now the new trailor comes out and they make ps3 the featured system to make it look like the ps3 version is the only one that people want....when even if I click on the story from the XBOX 360 SECTION it still takes me to the ps3 page....WTF.

I think it is because cnet networks is partly owned by sony

it doesnt have anything to do with that.... Mostly likely its because GTA started out as a Playstation series. then again, it could be just at random.

my mistake, but seeing as how GTA4 is not yet announced for the PC (though it most certainly will be eventually) The next logical step would be the PS3. though the PC version, is not what most people tend to think of.

he thinks it will direct sales away from the 360 version? who cares? either way you still play the game, and rockstar doesnt care which system it sells more on as long as it sells alot. you just sound like a fanboy that would want to brag about sales for the same game between different systems. this is so sad:cry:

Because they got to choose one, and GTA is more known on PS brand so why not put it there.  Same with many other news subjects they chose one to place it on.

It was on ps2 first, but I don't know why they do that on GTA4. Does it matter anyway?

The truth is: When the average consumer thinks GTA. They will think PS3.

Alot of people won't even realize that it's on Xbox 360.

There isnt one because he made it up, Rockstar never annouced what system the trailer was from.

The GTA IV PS3 forum is much more popular. This is because it was at one point exclusive to the PS3.
