I think that it is hard to say. On one hand, GTAIV came out before the PS3 really hit its stride, as well as having Microsoft timed-exclusivity with some of its content. On the other hand, despite those advantages, total lifetime sales are actually rather close. I do think that the 360 version will still have an early lead, due to the series's popularity in America, but lifetime-wise, I can see it being very close.

 I agree. My point was, those two games could be under the same radar as GTA5 for some people. The other games, not at all.

I think it will, if there is no timed DLC exclusivity like there was for Grand Theft Auto IV.

It's possible.

I wonder who will make GTA V bundles ? MS or Sony ?

Trophies on PS3 are pretty much the same thing.

So you'll hold off on GTA V, The Last of US, God of War Ascension, Gears of War Judgement all because new systems come out 6 to 8 months later? Some of the best games on PS2 came out close to PS3's release or even after it came out (God of War II, Okami, Final Fantasy XII).

Edit: Bioshock Infinite, Metal Gear Rising...

Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed either (especially on PS4).

I highly doubt it. Previous game sales have little to nothing to do with a newer game, especially this far into a generation. More people own an Xbox, and more people own an PS3. The number of consoles have changed ALOT since GTA IV was introduced to the market.

Another thread about this???? Guess I should not be surprised. Still whichever console lives longer will probably sell more.

Hopefully none. I prefer Rockstar to stay neutral and let the consumer decide which to buy. No timed-exclusive DLC or bundle crap.

That goes two ways, Xbox may have more of a market share in Europe since the tracked data is inaccurate. Besides, GTA's biggest market is the US.

But, it doesn't matter. As long as the game sells well on both platforms, im happy.
