You can get it for either system.  Why would the delay affect 360 sales more than PS3 sales?  It just means that WII will continue to sell more this fall because the sequel to the most popular series is pushed back to 2008.

Because ps3 will have a larger installed base by April so that's more potential people buying it for the PS3 instead of 360.

Oh and I bet they delayed so they could figure out how to fit it on a dvd

No console war here.  Just saying that what PD said makes no sense.  If anything, Sony would pay for GTA4 to be released earlier.  After all, GTA is still associated mostly with Playstations.  Many people didn't even know that GTA was available on the Xbox 1!

I think this is good news. Now I can give GTAIV the attention it deserves come April 08.

I can give GTAIV the 10 hours it needs for me to get bored of killing people in next gen glory

I cant believe gta will come out in the spring. That is a total fall game to take advantage of the christmas boost. Rockstar will lose a lot of sales due to that.

christmas sales = a lot of help easily. People picking up 360's for people at christmas would just grab GTA IV to go with it.

I for some reason have some odd gut feeling that Halo 3 wont sell Halo 2 numbers (though amazing numbers, but still "fall short") but I also had that gut feeling for PoTC 2 last year...

Gears of War has sold almost 3 million copies in the US alone. Halo 3 will have no problem surpassing that in the US, and the Euro sales will be great.
