For comparison, the PS2 version of GTA: San Andreas sold 12 million copies worldwide. During a conference call, the company said it would continue to promote GTA IV through the holiday season, and that it expected lifetime sales for the game to "track well ahead of any previous GTA title."

I think GTA4 is a pretty cool guy, eh drunk drives and doesn't afraid of anything.

I don't think it'll sell more than any previous title. San Andreas was pretty late in the PS2's life cycle.

man, hype sure sells a lot. my GTA IV hasn't seen the inside of my PS3 since MGS4 came out, and i still have about 60% of GTA IV to beat. i've been busy with more Gears of War, Orange Box and Uncharted to think about GTA IV lately. but i guess Take-Two couldn't care less, since i've already paid them $60 anyway. oh well...

Ironically, my MGS4 hasn't seen the inside of my PS3 since I realized how shitty a game it was and went back to playing GTA4.
BTW, did you know the black guy with blond hair is there to unlock weapons? I can't remember if they mention that.

I wonder which version of GTA4 sold more copies?
360 or PS3?
Phantom @ Sep 4th 2008 6:23PM
Before there was a story (like months ago) that the 360 version sold twice as much , ans MS started bragging , then sony went and said they wouldn't be bragging about selling twice as much if they had a 3-1 lead .
Thief @ Sep 4th 2008 6:26PM
I can tell you as much as I know from retail that my store received almost twice as many 360 copies than we did PS3 copies. We constantly sell out of both, but there's a noticeably higher demand for the 360 version.

Well if VGChartz is to be trusted, it's:
XBox360 - 5,850,270
PS3 - 4,337,882

Some places have it estimated around 40-45/55-60...

The Housers are just rollin' in the money. I wish i was them...
Seanross @ Sep 4th 2008 9:26PM
For a game that supposedly sucks (according to what I've read on alot of boards) That sure is a lot sold...
DonWii @ Sep 4th 2008 9:31PM
I thought the PS2 version of San Andreas had sold over 18M copies, with the Xbox version selling about 3M for a total of 21M.
Where are we getting the 12M for San Andreas?
