Extremely foolish comment.

Hardware sales (PS3) from GTA V release week until now:

sept 21st - 79,515,758

oct 12th - 80,119,964

That means only 604,206 consoles were sold. Even if you estimate that 500k were bundles, it doesn't account for the 2 million unit difference. Not even close actually.

Next time bring facts.

Number of gta v (ps3) copies bundled with every ps3 are counted towards that regardless if sold or not. 

You apparently read my comment and understood none of it.

Tell me how 604,000 consoles sold translates to 2 million GTA V sales through bundling. I'll wait.

Do i need to hold your hand and explain it to you?

Look kid this is how it goes down:

Sony and Rockstar work together to create a bundle with rockstars game.

Sony pays rockstar for every single game bundled.

Sony pays Rockstar for the game then they bundle it with a ps3. 

If sony created 1 million bundles then that means 1 million gta v copies sold to sony by rockstar. 

Sony ships them to be sold. 

Sony already payed for all those games that come along with the bundle. 

When gamestop (any other store) sell a bundle then it is counted as a sale.

1 million bundles created but lets say 400,000 were sold so far...

Those 1 million gta v games have already been purchased by sony. 



Did you know ps4 only supports a 2.4 wireless signal?

The xbox one supports a wireless adapter capable of 2.4 - 5.0ghz.

The ONLY next gen console to do so.

But vgchartz only counts the 400,000 already sold to customers, for gods sake. DO YOU GET THAT?

There is a 2 million disparity, vgchartz uses sold to customer, not sold to retailer, and even if I follow your incoherence, you're short by 1 million.



No reason to try to make a point when people on this site are so in denial. They turn anything around and only see it their way.

peace out.

I am not trying to be funny but I do not get the point of what you said. It is known that a company pays to bundle a game. But this site and other only track sold to customers so I guess the confusion lies in that everyone gets your point/ But it really holds no relevance to what they are saying I guess.



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

You are new here so...

VGC tracks sold to consumer. That includes GTA V and the PS3. GTA V is not considered sold until a consumer has bought the game. GTA V is not considered sold if Sony bought GTA V copies with their bundle. GTA V and a PS3 is considered sold if a consumer buys the bundle from a retailer.
