The 360 gets the gift cards because retailers ordered too many for the holiday season, and are trying to clear inventory. A gift card is much better than a sale, because the item you purchase with the card probably only cost the store 50-70% of the gift card value anyway.
PS3s are moving faster than X360s, even with these kinds of promotions... hence, no gift card deals.
