Chart-track GTA:IV sales figures for the first 4 weeks reveal that the Xbox 360 is the format of choice for UK gamers, with 57pc of the total sales on 360. Total sales are over 1.3m meaning around 750k has shifted on 360 vs around 570k on PS3.
Comparing sales of both consoles for the 4 weeks prior to GTA:IV’s launch to the 4 weeks since its launch, hardware units have risen on 360 by 47pc, compared to just 8pc on PS3. The PS3 YTD in the UK is still slightly more than the 360 however.
