GTA was always multiplatform except for the GBA game.

Not on consoles it wasn't.

And I more mean the 3D ones (I.e when the franchise became big). GTA 4 was the first one with  a simultaneous multi platform release. PlayStation was usually the debut format.

 

It was a huge boon for the 360 on its pre launch E3. Hence this:

 

GTA4 was not expected to hit 360 day and date. It was always expected to initially be PS3 exclusive.

Simultaneous release is different, but it always was on multiple platforms. The PC and Xbox versions of the games were actually better than the PS2 versions.

It was more about its perception as being related to PlayStation due to the earlier release of the PS2 versions of the game. And Chinatown Wars, though not really related here, was released on PSP later than it was on DS. EFLC was released on 360 before PC and PS3. Rockstar went wherever the money was. And in sixth gen it was on PS2.
