Yeah nothing on Playstation kills anything with attach ratio. Gta as you say is the closest.  on ps3 it was probably around 25% attach ratio. 

 

The thing is with Playstation, it's software sales are spread out over a massive array of titles.  A huge and varied taste in it's install base.  One single title is never going to have a crazy attach ratio no matter how good it is. 

And thing with Nintendo hardware is that people are buying Nintendo consoles on 1st place to play Nintendo games, that's why Nintendo games have such high attach rate and that's why 3rd party games usually doesn't have good sales compared to Playstation or MS.

That's my point.  People buy Playstations for a much bigger array of games.  Both third party and first party.  As a result sales are spread out over more titles.
