This is going to be adjusted down by a few millions after NPD numbers.

Sure it will. Even after Take-Two gave us the revenue themselves.

No way it sold 17.5 millions FW and you know it.

12-14 millions is the maximum it could have sold. As for the revenue => shipped.

No, I don't actually know it. Why is 12-14m the maximum? That doesn't make any sense.

Also, that revenue was sold to consumers, otherwise the revenue wouldn't be over 1 billion...(the retailers buy it for less than $60).

The revenue generated by the game is the price*the number of sales (taxes and retailers cut included, like in movie business).

The game is 90$ in Europe (70€ = 90$) and 70$ in USA. Make the calcul with VGchartz numbers and it still is way above the 1 billon number.
