On another note....will GTA IV break 10 million? It's only at 9.33 million on PS3 ATM (That graph in the OP is wrong, GTA IV should be one whole cell lower).


That's the 360 version of GTAIV.

Why are you comparing a PS3 game to a 360 game? Each platform has different domographs, different tie ratios, different selling patterns. The average 360 gamer has 1 more game then the average PS3 gamer (9.76 vs. 8.74), and 360 has a much larger base in the combined Americas/EMEAA (Japan is a terrible territory for old game sales due to the used game market).

This is an unfair comparision, change it to GTA IV for PS3 for fairness.



Because they've been selling practically identically for two years now. That should be enough evidence that they will continue selling similarly for the next few years. Even with all those different factors, they've managed to balance out extremely well. Doesn't matter which is fair, I'm just looking for patterns, and the 360 version was the best candidate.
