Well I thought it was a given considering GTAIV sales were neck and neck and that was in 08.

GTA is a PlayStation known franchise, people. GTA selling more on PS should not be shocking.
The ONLY reason why GTA 4 sold more on 360 was because it got downloadable content 1st.
GTA 5 also would have sold better on PS3 regardless of it having a bundle or not
Edit: oh, you guys beat me to it

I think it's quite the big deal, especially the US gap growing closer. People don't realize how close Sony is to taking the industry back to Ps2 level domination. Slowly but surely, inch by inch, Sony is gaining ground in the US. They already have a strong grip on Europe, Asia, and the rest of the world.
GTA5 sold 22.4 million plus in 1 month period compare to Call of Duty Black Ops 2 with 15.4 million.
GTA San Andrea sold 27+ million PS2, Xbox, PC, Xbox Live, PSN Sales
GTA4 sold 25+ million plus PS3, 360, PC/Steam Sales
GTA5 will match GTA4 Lifetime sales in November and San Andrea Lifetime sales by Christmas-Early 2014
GTA5 will reach 33 million Summer 2014-Fall 2014 for 4th best selling for 7th Generation Consoles Wii Sports and all that had the record.
GTA5 will becoming selling PS3/Xbox 360 Soon Call of Duty hold the record.

It's in the Microsoft section because, the main topic is about XBOX which is from microsoft -.-
And It's suprising because GTAIV sales for Xbox 360 are ahead of PS3 GTAIV sales.

If we track PS3 Digital Sales for GTA5 it will be sold 25 million together which is total of GTA4 lifetime sales.

Nah.
The 360 at the time was stomping the PS3 into the ground userbase-wise. The 360 had a 6/7 Million lead in sales, while the PS3 had only sold around 12 Million units. The userbase simply wasnt there for PS3 to push numbers as big as the 360 version could (added in with 360 exclusive advertising/bundles).
The PS3 had sold ~4 Million units in America, compared to the 360's ~10 Million at the time. If I remember correctly, the 360 was even winning in Europe at the time, too. Userbase gave the 360 the main advantage, the exclusive bundles/advertising/content just added to it.

So it looks like the PS3 version outsold the 360 version by over 1 million on week one then.
