Over 1 million downloaded TLAD, that figure was expected to rise to 2 million before 09 even started. The retail copy has sold nearly 1 million ..

I don't see poor sales!

Exactly, what did the main game sell on the 360 originally anyway? 6 or 7 million? If it hits half that, that'll be EXTREMELY impressive for DLC. Anyone expecting it to put up the same numbers is a certified idiot. Nevermind that these people seem to be thinking "hey, those download numbers aren't very impressive! and hey the disk sales aren't impressive either!" Instead of viewing them both together as one full package (disc and downloads) they only seem to be caring about how each is doing individually, which makes no sense at all because they're the same content at the same price.

GTAIV is like 7.4 mill. LCS will break 1.5 and maybe 2 mill lifetime. I imagin the people that bought TLAD over XBL will have bought Gay Tony that way as well. So around 3.5/4 mill for DLC is brilliant. Nearly 50%
