Default Next GTA to go dual PS3/360 release

I just noticed we didn't have an Xbox 360 or Microsoft conference thread yet. Hah.

http://games.slashdot.org/games/06/05/09/1959240.shtml

So, good news for 360 owners, bad news for Sony.

I bet the next GTA will look just as good as MGS4.

I worded it carefully.

Sony won't get nearly the royalty sales if it was exclusive. Then again, they had to pay money to keep SA on PS2, so.. who knows.

PS3-only owners (and I think there will be a lot of them) will remain relatively unphased because they pretty much expect it, unless they whine about not being special or whatever because it's dual-release now. Sony is the only one at the real loss here.

No, Nintendo is the one at a loss...that much is obvious

And it's only better for Microsoft in relative terms (in comparison to THIS gen, they're picking up a top franchise). For Sony, nothing changes (except for it being exclusive...but what fool believes that the game still wont sell ridiculously well on PS3 anyways?)

and gamers dont care about it not being exclusive...well maybe 0.5% or something like that

When I saw Peter Moore's new "Grand Theft Auto" tattoo at the press conference, I thought that GTA might be Xbox360 exclusive or something. Turns out the guy is just insane.
