@Kamil: I checked that shipment number and found out it is from an analyst and not Take Two themselves, so forget that number. The 300M versus 170M is probably 1 day versus 7 days, so it is indeed a week sales, but it is covered in more that 1 week of tracking sales. I do seem to have mixed up some of the Halo numbers in my head, so it is probably more like 2.5M first day and 1.5M for the rest of the week to get to around 4M in sales. But whatever percentage we use, it all depends on what is used as the first day number. So basically with the numbers released by The Source we should see at least around 5M copies of GTA IV sold first week and potentially millions more, but the margin of error is still huge and any prediction is still based on many uncertainties.
