@everyone..... predictsales is correct on one part.. GTA:SA has (across PS2+XB+PC) shipped over 21 million (and as the game is so old it has probably sold close to what it has shipped)

@PredictSales.... However you don't seem to be providing any kind of source for you 12 million in 5 months claim, although I am sure as soon as you do provide a source (preferably the original source, not some random blog) we will be able to point out how it means it shipped 12 million in 5 months (Take2 sold to retail), not sold (retail to gamers).

So as it stands, I still call bullshit on your claim.

No, it has SOLD 21.5 million, not shipped. Grand Theft Auto series is the king for the fastest selling games ever, get over it. No Wii game will ever come close.

 

 

Wait, GTA is the king? Halo 3 has the highest single plat opening, GTA is far behind for best selling total for the game, and for the total sales of the franchise, it's in 3rd place.

Also, it hasn't sold. Companies don't track sold, they track shipped - as that's what they know. Thinking otherwise just adds to the proof that you have no clue whatsoever regarding this topic.

site is down right now, but belive me, it is more truthworthy than vgchartz1

 

Wait, what site is more credible than VGChartz? Either come up with proof of that, or at least link to the site.

 

Dude, you seem obsessed with GTA selling good. After 18 posts, you have made at least 5 posts going off topic to talk about how great GTA has sold.

 

You said "Well, Grand Theft Auto costed more than $100 million to make, but they got $310 million on day 1 and $500 million one week one, so..."

That's just stupid. The game didn't revenue 500M dollars before 1 month had passed, at that time it had sold 8.3M, which might total 500M REVENUE. Profit has yet to break even 200M I would believe.

 

So stop trying to bullshit the people of VGChartz. We don't fall for it, and you only make yourself look like a fool.
