I'm honestly trying to figure out how the hell did GTA V sell so well, I mean it already sold way more than the lifetime sales of GTA IV!  I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do with the review scores since it scored similar to GTA IV and idk about the advertising, I mean I'm sure GTA IV had some significant advertising too.  Also on top of that there are next gen systems coming out soon, which wasn't there when GTA IV came out, and I would think that would have lowered the sales because people were either trading in their current gen systems or were just done with current gen, but it seemed like they had no effect on the sales.  What was it about GTA V that made it such a huge success?
