As someone suggested, I tried using the VGChartz categorization.

If you take the top 25 sellers on each platform including multiplatform titles, then calculate the percentage of sales of each category versus total sales of top 25 you get:

              PS3     360 FPS                 23.92% 36.58%
Shooter 0.00% 11.68%

Action 23.68% 7.64%
Racer               15.83% 4.33%
Adventure 9.57% 8.46% Platformer          6.18% 3.12%
Sports               15.28% 5.11%
RPG                   2.35% 13.29%
Other       3.17% 9.78%

Edit: updated to latest sales data

 

I like the way this was done. Just wish I knew the games and what genre's they were labeled as... just to error check.
