I would think other games would compare as well.

Hell didn't Pokémon Go make over a billion dollars in less than a year. Quick google shows over 1 billion as of Feb 2017. Don't underestimate a lot of those free games or micro transactions in games. Wouldn't be surprised to see Madden or Fifa with their micro transactions being some of the top. And those are games that last only a year. GTA5 took how many years to accumulate those numbers.

None of those are anywhere near the $5 billion+ GTAV has made..

GTA5, released in 2013. So that is 4 years of sales.

Lets take say Fifa. Fifa 17 on this site has 11 million sales, not including digital. So lets round to 12. http://www.vgchartz.com/game/117272/fifa-17/

The game costs $60 and has very popular microtransactions, so lets say even with some buyers getting the game on sale, the average person spends $70 total on Fifa. Whether is $60+$10 micro, $30+$40 micro, $30 no micro, $60+$500 micro. Whatever you want to say, the average is $70 per person.  

That is 840 million dollars in one year. Fifa is an annual game. That means multiply that by 4 to equal the years that GTA5 has been selling. That brings you to 3.36 billion dollars in the same time frame.

Pokemon Go was 1 billion in a year or less. They ahve 4 more years. Sure htey won't keep that same speed, but it also costs a fraction of a fraction of what GTA5 costs.
