Forums - Sales - Will GTA IV outsell previous GTA's?

As we already know, GTA IV (combined) is selling better than San Andreas in UK and US at least. GTA IV first day outsold SA on first week in US. And this is happening with much smaller userbase, while PS2 had over 70 million when SA released, PS3 + 360 are just over 30 million combined.

So what do you think, will it have a chance to match or beat previous GTA titles in long run? And what do you think it will hit LTD after it's done?

GTA San Andreas 15.45 m (PS2 only)

GTA Vice City 14.20 m 

GTA III 11.60 m 



I don't bother listing my last-gen games (PS2, Xbox, GC) to my collection cause there's too many of them. ;)

It will certainly outsell the last two, but I doubt it will knock SA of its perch



I'd say it has a good shot outsell GTA3, but Vice City and San Andreas are too far away for GTA4 because of the installbase.
That's assuming that GTA4 won't get a Wii port.

Combined I think it might reach vice city levels it'll at least reach gta 3 levels.



combined it should do 20 million

What? No, i'm not. GTA 4 will sell huge numbers anyway, so i wouldn't take Wii port for granted. Although, considering Take Twos normal financial issues, there is indeed a possibility, but granted, no.

I'm standing by my prediction that GTA4 is going to be the worst selling GTA since the series went 3d. The previous parts were so huge because of a market segment that simply isn't anywhere near as big on the 360 or PS3 as it was on the PS2.

I've also been looking for sauces that taste good with large amounts of crow, but let's not get into that now. =P



@Parokki

I disagree + some of your Ps3 prediction were completely wrong...if you remember I think you were the one who said 07 would be PS3's best year (sales wise) & that it would be discontinued..

I may be wrong but maybe thats cus I remember your old avatar...
