Yes, I saw the PS3 logo at the end of a GTA commericial.
WTF This game is on the xbox360? Holy shit... haha anyway I live in Aus, and I havn't seen a single tv add for GTAIV, but then again, I don't watch too much tv nowadays sadly. But one I do know, is that on my way to uni, there are a billion GTAIV posters everywhere! And at some train station they have have proper ones. The one at the stations have both PS3 and xbox360 on them, so I guess thats R* advertising it.
And its like other people have been saying. MS is focusing its adds in EU while Sony does it in the states, because thats where those two companies want to increase their sales. And to be honest, I think MS wasted too much money on the whole Halo 3 thing. That game was pretty much always going to sell itself.
There's 3 versions. Xbox 360 logo, PS3 logo and both. I've seen all 3 a lot.
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
Italy:here we had only x360 commercials...after the niko walk a voice says something that could be translated like that "gran theft auto 4 on x360. Console starting from 199€"

27.1 M 
20.8 M
It just depends on who is helping pay for the commercial.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
Obviously a PS3 commercial will make it appear GTA IV is on the PS3 only. On the other hand XBox 360 will make it appear GTA IV is on the XBox 360 only. It is the magic of advertising/marketing.
| Aprisaiden said: hmm in Australia i have seen ALOT of GTA IV advertisments ( 4 commercials by Rockstar during Underbelly last night ) . and a few posters by M$ ... In the end though i doubt the SONY / M$ advertising will have much effect on the platform people buy the game for . |
One of the few disappointing things about living in melb, we get don't get underbelly, that'd literally be the perfect time slot to show ads of GTA4 (and soprano's would be another great time).
I haven't seen a GTA4 ad yet on TV, but one thing I'd like to note (and this applies to most multiplatform titles), when they display the 2 cases of the game, the PS3 one is almost always at the front and the edge of the 360 box (which you can only tell it's the 360 box because it's green edges) is the only part you can see.
Conspiracy? I think so.
isnt that trickery though in a way?
...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...
PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk
really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...
100 advertising for the Xbox360 (price drop or GTA4) vs 1 for the PS3
this is basically the ratio in France
