Looks like the data is from MS, no official numbers, just a bunch of percentages

I got some data from the US team, and I'm here to share that news with you:

  • Actual MS sales data from last week shows Xbox 360 console sales at retail went up 54% week-over-week as a result of GTA's success
  • According to retailers more than 60% of all GTA games sold in the first week were the Xbox 360 version
  • Retailers are telling us that the game is attaching strongly to new console sales, with roughly 40% of new consoles selling with a copy of Grand Theft Auto IV

Regarding Xbox LIVE:

  • In the first week, more than 2.3 million people played Grand Theft Auto IV on Xbox LIVE
  • GTA IV is now the number one played game on Xbox LIVE
  • Over the weekend, we saw the Xbox LIVE service reach 1 million concurrent users
  • Gamers have unlocked more than 12 million achievements worth over 100 million gamerscore points in GTA
  • Grand Theft Auto IV set a new record for time played, with the average gamer spending more than four hours playing the game on LIVE in the first week alone
