Grand Theft Auto was a frontrunner unlike Wiifit, Mario kart Wii, SSBB, Mario and Sonic and Nintendogs, sure it have legs but not the same as the other games I mentioned so why the article says it will threaten the Wii? Wii can survive with Wii Sports alone, can GTA IV do that? After you finished the missions and sub missions you'll never play it again unlike Wii Sports. Sure, it have over 50 hours of gameplay but it doesnt mean that Grand Theft Auto games have infinite replayability like Wii Sports anyway.

This aricle was just the same Wii bashing we always read by Sony fanboys/M$ fanboys in the internet. It didnt deserve to be publicized I think M$ just paid Forbes to do that article.

 Well I would argue against that, GTA is popular because few people actually do the missions rather than just driving around shooting stuff, I put GTA3 in my laptop a few days ago and it has been sharing my gaming time with Mario Kart Wii (even though my laptop doesn't support it properly so on the lowest settings I get terrible pop-up and misplaced textures that mean taking a shortcut is incredibly dangerous as you can hit something that was seemingly not there)

I have certainly played other games more than GTA3 but it does have a lot of replay value to most people purely because it is a sandbox game.

I have yet to play this game but I wanna try the Elder Scrolls's series, now thats what I call a sandbox game, you can play sub missions and not the main missions but feels that you're playing the main misssions itself. Unlike GTA series sub missions that more of a mini game with repetitive gameplay like the taxi missions and the vigilante missions. And you can kill people, be a good hero or be be a villain and it effects on what is your relationship with the world. Unlike on GTA that after you go to your safehouse and dress, busted or you painted  a new color to your car in pay and spray and the police will just ignore you that you've done was nothing even you kill 100 hundred people. And you can do anything in Elder Scroll's series you can just roam around in the world  and something unexpected happend unlike in GTA series that you roam in the world and nothing's happening in the game.
