Yeah guys, GTA V has recently sold over a million units in Japan on PS3, 360 and PS4. Japan has a very different taste in games, but even they couldn't resist this masterpiece. This is a very small portion of its worldwide sales but its very impressive for a Western-published game to sell over a million units in Japan and the first time it has happened there. I think this may be the start of Western games becoming more prominent in Japan.

So far so good, GTA deserves it. But I would say that Japan have their own taste in gaming, and doesn't always eat every Western crap.

So... Just because they dont like the same type of games as we do means that they have a bad taste is games? Yea, okay there... Maybe you should learn to accept that not everyone has the same taste in games as you

GTA is monster everywhere.

Wow, that's cool. The concept of the game is hard to resist.

I mean that's cool and all, but are people really shouting revolution at selling 1m spread between 3 consoles, two at the end of their cycles? Come on guys.
