Since we all heard GTA5 push back to Sept from its Sping Release we all Notice that it falls on the same day as Vita's Most Anticipated game of the year (OR at least top 3!).

Will this have a major impact on Vita's Title?

They're on different consoles so no.

Well if it came down to having just $60 and the choice was between GTA5 and KZV ,Im sure GTA5 would win every time.

The effect will be ant sized. People who own a Vita and are interested in a high quality FPS will buy KZm, if not that week then soon after. That's the great thing about not having a ton of competition on the same platform.

Not every time.  GTA bores the hell out of me.  I'd take KZm in a heartbeat.

Not much but I still think they should move the date back a bit.

I find it hard to Killzone Vita sell well by itself without any competition, with GTA5 released the same month it's quite obvious it will lose a lot of sales, as i'm sure PS Vita owners most likely own a PS3.

I don't think it will sell much anyways...

The people that really really like Killzone and Sony are the ones that are going to buy it.
I don' t think GTA is going to change that. But, I don't think there's that many people that fit that profile.

Something needs to have sales to lose sales.

If you think about it, GTA5 is going to get millions of people in stores within days. These are people that most likely wouldn't have been in the stores if it wern't for GTA5. Now that there are millions more people in the videogame department they will see Sony games and want to buy Vita's, Killzone, etc...

In conclusion, big blockbusters help not only the console it's for but the whole video game industry :)))

For instance let's say 1 out of ever 1,000 GTA5 buyers would be interested in Killzone Vita but didnt know Killzone Vita existed

that means Vita/Killzone sales could have been boosted by 1,800 in GTA5's first two days. Now do this with more games..of course it would help ps360 a lot more but you get what I'm saying. Same applies to wii.
