No game series gets me more excited than the GTA series, this will be huge, I predict about 2 million 360 fans picking it up with an additional  million on the ps3 the first week. Hopefully.

Very few games are this close in NA when it comes to PS3/360. 360 is usually 2x the sales of major games... Especially the ones they promote to death with exclusive content.

 

3 mil seems right I think... 2:1 for 360.

with all the advertising behind this game, it will feel like Halo all over again.

What if this game Phails and has bad framrate problems, shit graphics and difficult gameplay, and impossible missions

I know it most likely wont happen but it would be funny to see those 2 million people fail!

I'd say everyone here is selling it short (my opinion only).

I'm going balls-out and saying 2.4 on 360 and 1.7 on PS3.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

 I believe you are thinking of FPS games, like Army of 2 or CoD4. 360 clearly has a much bigger FPS crowd than PS3. but if you care to check out non shooter game... A game that was born and raised on PS3

DMC4: 181,071 (PS3) 280,489 (360). More like 1.5 : 1

 Now with PS3 gaining momentum in US, don't be surprised.

 Much like Mario Party 8? Well, it will still sell well, just like Mario Party 8. ;)

GTAIV sucking is as likely as Halo 3 sucking or FFXIII sucking or even RE5 sucking.

 

Not going to happen to a game with such a big budget in the middle of console life-cycle. It's not like it was programing for a completely new console.
