Why do people keep claiming MGS4 is PS3's saviour?

Why? I would LOVE to own a PS3, but Sony's console does not have any of the games that interest me, besides JRPGs. Maybe that new Naruto game. If I only bought a PS3 right now, it would be for DVD/Blu-Ray purposes, until the games I like would appear.

 Coz you are saying things that are unbeleaveble.

the ONLY console that benefited on the release of GTAIV was NOT the PS3 or X360. It was the Wii

Uh, because Nintendo countered GTAIV with more shipments of the Wii console? The Wii sold nearly 1 million in that week alone. Sure the PS3 and X360 sold a lot more than usual (wasn't it above 150k but under 550k?), but the Wii slaughtered it. Read on that "Will Nintendo counter MGS4 with more Wii shipments?" whatever thread. That's basically what I based part of my post on.
