Not too much more. It's having a hard time staying in the top 50 at this point. The hype is over and the used copies are plentiful.
Should enjoy a little surge this holiday, but I don't think it will reach 13 million combined sales lifetime.

The game still sold 65k units last week, it sold to retail 11mil copies months ago and GTA games are known for having great legs. This game should have no problem passing 13mil.
I think it could get to 15 million... I don't think the legs will last so well after Christmas, but it should already be 11.5 million (ish) by January.... so maybe a further 1.5 - 2 million through 2009, and will probably stop being shipped not long after.
Of course the PC version will add another couple of million at least... but it isn't going to get to San Andreas heights, which has shipped something like 22 million (PS2/XB/PC)

Well, i cant claim to know how much it will sell, but i can guess 
I say combined, 14 million sold WW

I think it'll get a decent christmas boost. I think it could very well sell 15 million if you take the pc version into account.

Ha!

Why are you laughing... that seems a reasonable guess to me (unless he was including PC version, which would add around 2 million to make 16 million)
Were you saying it is too high, or too low?

I think the 'ha!' was referring to my comment about the bolded sentence.
Unless im mistaken.....
