The Game Druid

Amazon is being bribed by Sony to promote Grand Theft Auto IV for the Playstation 3, specifically. “Play GTA IV in all its glory on the Playstation 3” is the exact quote. Before, this used to toggle between the Xbox 360, but the update confirmed that it was a paid campaign by Sony. What’s more interesting is that it seems like Microsoft wants to rebel “next week”.

Video game retailers don’t often take explicit sides in the console wars, and why should they? A retailer makes largely the same money selling a copy of a PS3 game as selling the same game on the Xbox 360. So it struck us as a little odd that Amazon is currently promoting the questionable proposition that Grand Theft Auto IV is “meant to be played on the PS3″ on the front page of its Video Games section.
