How could they be surprised about the announcement? Take2 GTAIV and Capcom DMC4 both sell better on the 360 then PS3. The only thing I'm suprise about was MGS4 didn't jump ship yet.

 

No

In the case of GTA, that is most popular in America, UK and the more shooter centric regions, also where the 360 is doing best, but the PS3 still has a higher attach rate. Anyway, the sales for this game will be different as there will be a much higher percent in Japan, where the PS3 is king (over the 360), so they will get plenty of sales there. Anyway, the jRPGs this gen have not have not had world breaking sales, even though they have been quite good, so taking it to the 360 is not going to have as big as an advantage as those other games. Anyway, if GTA IV had been exclusive the PS3 would have sold far more. Anyway, by the time XIII is released the install bases will be much closer, so the advantage that the 360 has had will not be as important in terms of sales.
