Its kind of funny that Gearbox gives crap to Valve for being bias towards the 360. Yet the 360 is the bread and butter Borderlands.

The main reason is that the game released close to Uncharted 2 so most PS3 owners that had to make a choice bought U2...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

Hah, that's a good one! I'd sooner believe MW2 is responsible.

Just face it, PS3 fans didn't care about Borderlands and shooters do considerably better on the 360. ODST had huge sales, MW2 smashed records, and there was still plenty of room for Borderlands to do great. Left 4 Dead 2 will as well.

MW2 can hardly be responsible when all the sales of Borderlands we know so far happened before MW2 release...
