GTA4 is ~550k off the target. It will hit 10 Million next Year. GTA5 will hit it relatively easily. Will do CoD-like numbers. GT5 will have hit the number by this time next Year, if not sooner. Its quite clearly undertracked on VGChartz and had shipped 9.2 Million units in SEPTEMBER. |
That may or might not happen. A lot of games released now either sell less then their prequels or will likely sell less then their prequels (e.g. Halo 4/Reach won't get Halo 3 numbers, Super Mario Galaxy 2 came nowhere close to Galaxy 1's numbers, Black Ops 2 will likely fall short of Modern Warfare 3, etc).
The market is quite saturated with games after a 7 year generation, but it has been nearly 4 years since GTAIV? It could sell as well as GTA IV, maybe even faster too, but I doubt it with the PS4 coming soon and the market so saturated.
But you never know, while I was spot on right in believing GT5 won't sell 9 million units by the end of 2012, it will likely break 10 million, which I was wrong about. GTA V could have crazy legs in 3 years, like GTA:SA, you never know.
