If we are excluding massively bundled titles than it has been the best selling console game since it past Mario Kart Wii. Super Mario Bros was included with every nes sold in America. But then again if we start including PC and mobile minecraft is far ahead.

That's why only revenue should matter at this point. And with its $60 price point GTAV made a lot more money than Minecraft's $6-$20. Because might as well consider Angry Birds if you are to consider Minecraft :/

If revenue is the criteria for best selling than World of Warcraft is the best selling game ever. It has made much more money than Grand Theft Auto 5. Though I still think total sales gives a better picture for best selling even if those copies aren't all $60. I would understand free games not counting but in the long run Grand Theft Auto 5 will eventually sell for $5 and it will still never outsell minecraft. Its about how many people are willing to pay money to play a game. Whether the person spends $20 on minecraft or $500 on world of warcraft isn't super relevent towards a game's popularity.
