Forums - Gaming - How many copies of Grand Theft Auto V will have to sell for it to make a profit?

I saw one article say that it is costing clost to $140 million to make.  If it costs that much, how much would it need to sell to make a profit//break even?  And, if anyone can also add the marketing costs for the game, can someone add that to the costs and come up with how many copies it will have to sell?  We looking at needing to sell over 10 million, or approach the level of Call of Duty to even recover the costs to produce?
