Pretty big news. Incidentally, the first "Top Global Markets Report" for the month of August should be releasing any day now, but I don't know if any data will be made public. There's a partially censored sample with July data here (PDF).

I might be wrong... but it looks to me like GTAIV total number is 3,794,873

which confuses me as it is obviously not a global figure.... even taking into account that it says April 2008... the game sold way more than that in it's first 2 days (both in April)

 

Yeah, you're wrong because they released the "Global" (actually just JP/UK/US) Top 5 YTD chart through July when they made the announcement and it was at 6,293,000.

 

I'm not wrong.... look at the numbers... the breakdown above the total shows a number in the 2 millions for 360 (looks like 2.2) and a number in the 1 millions for PS3 (looks lke 1.3).... then the two special editions are not even at 1 million.

The PDF you gave seems to show GTAIV numbers up to the end of April.... for USA+UK+Japan (none there anyway though) not the end of July.

Or what about Mario Kart Wii.... it is split to show Japan alone, which is clearly still below 1 million, so is quite obviously not the end of July, or even the start of July.
