The 360 at the time was stomping the PS3 into the ground userbase-wise. The 360 had a 6/7 Million lead in sales, while the PS3 had only sold around 12 Million units. The userbase simply wasnt there for PS3 to push numbers as big as the 360 version could (added in with 360 exclusive advertising/bundles). The PS3 had sold ~4 Million units in America, compared to the 360's ~10 Million at the time. If I remember correctly, the 360 was even winning in Europe at the time, too. Userbase gave the 360 the main advantage, the exclusive bundles/advertising/content just added to it. |
I forgot about how low the install bases of each were back then.
You have to remember that Grand Theft Auto is a game changer and it was very associated with Sony. The GTA 4 boosts would have been more in favor of the ps3 back then if it wasnt for a big portion of people going out of their way to buy it on 360 in order to have access to the dlc.
Other PS known franchises sold better on ps3 aswell Devil May Cry 4(which also released in 08)
