Will GTA 5 on PS3 outsell the 360 version?

With the PS3 recently outselling the 360 in total life time Sales

 

PS3 - 77m

360 - 76m

 

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2013...r-years-to-come

 

 

The report also highlights that just this past December, Sony's PS3 managed to surpass the number of Xbox 360s shipped worldwide (about 77 million vs. 76 million), despite the PS3 launching a year later. While many hardcore gamers are now waiting for the next-generation systens from Sony and Microsoft, IDC noted that Nintendo will still "find an audience" with Wii U, reaching global bundle shipments of 50 million by year-end 2016.

 

And it's constantly rising and performing better, will this reflect on gta sales on it's platform?

Well.. according to those stats. Yes. GTA V is most likely sell more on the PS3 than it will on the 360.

 

Further more, only 50Mil Wii U by 2016? Dang.. It looks like the sales are nowhere near what the Wii had.

I'd rather think about total GTAV sales rather than which version that have better sales.

That's no fun though sad.gif

 

Plus with pokemon coming out this year, it's gonna be hard for gta 5 to be the best selling game

Who knows, how do we know all of the 77m people who bought a PS3 still has it? Same with the xbox.

Yeah, me too mate. I just want GTA V to break every single sales record like IV did in 2008, I couldn't care less about which version will sell more to be honest.

Another (not well) disguised fanboy topic. Yawn.

Not disguised at all, look at username and,look at the text under the title lol.

This topic= what?

 

Maybe 10 million of the xbox users like gta, and only 9 million on the ps3, just because the console sell More doesnt mean a game will sell better on that specific version.

Exactly, which is why I put the "(not well)" part. He's trying to disguise it but it isn't working.

Yep. Yet another topic that's more or less asking for a platform war.

 

@OP: Okay. We get it. You have a PS3 and you like it. Fantastic. Can we move on now please?

If those are worldwide sales numbers then you already have your answer. Of course the 360 version outsell the PS3 version. It always does.

I hope you're joking, there is not a single Pokemon game with over 20 million copies sold, GTA IV sold 25 and San Andreas 23 million copies. Pokemon is popilar but it's nowhere as popular as GTA.

 

OT: I know the OP is a fanboy but he is right, Black Ops 2 and Far Cry 3 are the only AAA multiplatform games that sold better on the 360 in 2012 (I havelinks btw) but every other game sold better on the PS3 so he has a point.

I feel that mods/admins should make a new rule regarding posting topics about consoles. They should lock it and delete it ASAP. No question what so ever, then give the person who made the topic a 24h ban.

 

It seems fair. There are so many people complaining about consoles it's not even funny anymore. This same OP posted in Gaming Chat about PS3 outselling Xbox.

No, it just won't. Multiplats almost always sell best on 360.

 

I also love the blatant fanboyism of OP. He needs support from this forum that the PS3 version will sell better so he can sleep tonight.

Is Sony paying you to start these console wars? Or are you just that much of a PS3 assbag?

Well, GTA 4 sold a little more on Xbox than PS3, but more people owned a Xbox back then.

 

Now that PS3 has finaly caught up and taken the lead, perhaps GTA 5 will sell more on PS3.

 

I dont really care to be honest, I just want GTA 5 to beat CoD in total sales.

Actually only 5 multiplatform games sold better on the 360 from April 2011 to January 2013, so nope, that is not true, we're not in 2006 anymore. I don't want to call you a 360 fanboy but living in denial (all of them are) strongly points that you're one, no offence.

That's nothing but a fantasy. It will NOT happen.

 

GTA V lifetime sales will not surpass Black Ops 2 or CoD 2013 sales.

 

^^^I encourage you to quote me on that. I'm that certain.

No he doesn't have a point. If he had a point, Black Ops 2 and Far Cry 3 would've sold better on PS3 as well. If his entire argument is based on console sales, then every single game should sale better on PS3, but that's the problem with his argument. Those are worldwide sales and you have to take into account the Asian market which couldn't give two f*cks about GTA and many other American games like Black Ops 2 and Far Cry 3.

That's true, unfortunately. CoD is one of the most milked game series ever, also one of the most selling.

You could be right, GTA IV to this day has sold 6.16 million on 360 and that launched 4 years ago while Black Ops 2 launched just last year and its at 6.72 million. Plus Black Ops 2 has their game on PC from the get go and they have a version on Wii U.

Only 400K Preorders in total? Sheese.. Not looking good for GTA V guys.. It seems that Pokemon might actually take the lead.

Most AAA multiplatform titles sold more on the PS3 in 2011 and 2012, i only own a 360 but really, you're such an obvious 360 fanboys, you and Chukkles but he doesn't know how to hide it this good like you.

 

As for GTA V not outselling Black Ops 2/MW3/MW4, and just to show you that it is really easy and it will happen, GTA V only needs to sell more than about 8 million copies than IV (which sold 25) to be the best selling video game of all time which is easy. Do you know why that will be easy? There was less than 35 million consoles owners back in 2008, now there is 143.5.

Yeah, but it doesn't work that way. Only the most fanatical fans preorder games this early. There's no benefit for most people. I'll just pick it up day one.

 

 

And people who expect GTA V to beat COD numbers should just let it go. You shouldn't care and it won't happen anyways.

Why does this apply to Grand Theft Auto and not Call of Duty. Your only argument that GTA V will sell more than Black Ops 2 or even MW4 is that there are more console owners now. Which is a flawed argument. Because there are more consoles more people can buy both GTA V or Black Ops 2 or MW4. Some how, in your logic you've made it out to be "because there are more console owners, now more of them will decidedly buy GTA V over Call of Duty".

 

Doesn't make much sense.

It will happen, wanna bet? Nah, when you lose you won't admit you were wrong, but you are wrong and i will be making a topic to prove you were after GTA V breaks MW3's record.

 

Man, it's funny how the media made people think reaching CoD numbers is impossible when IV sold 25 million copies when there were less than 35 million console owners in 2008-2009, now there is 144 and people think GTA V won't sell at least 35 million copies (which is enough to beat CoD)? lol.gif Man, i will be laughing my ass off when GTA V sells even more than 40 million copies.
