Surely Chart-Track/MCV news about GTA IV's performance is amazing what I doubt however is the long term sales compared to GTA:SA on PS2 ( and Xbox ).

==> I assume the game will have better legs on Xbox360 since MS could release "complete" version later this year including news add-on in a Arcade bundle for 199euros.



Time to Work !

Hmm. With early numbers like this being so awesome, I guess my 20m LTD prediction for GTAIV might not be too horrible afterall.

No, I honestly still think it's laughably ridiculous. Almost as bad as Pacther's prediction of 11 million by year's end. First month sales for the game will be around 4.5-5 million, and it will sell about like Halo 3 does after the first few months. Lifetime should be around 11 million.

This week in Spain will be huge for PS3, despite the game being advertised as a Xbox360 game in tv

I never really had much respect for you, and this post made is worst.

GTA 4 will have 20-30 million LTD sales, thats my garuntee.
