Early reports from Hollywood indicated that there were serious worries, whether the launch of Grand Theft Auto 4 could have any influence on the premiere of "Iron Man" and its accompanying game.
Today we can read for ourselves that the fear was indeed justified. With its release, GTA 4 sweeped the Guinness World Record for "Highest Revenue Generated by an Entertainment Product in 24 Hours", surpassing both video games, movies and books. The game sold 3.6 million units in the first 24 hours, raking in almost double the income of Halo 3 on its opening day.

Wow GTA....

GTAIV for PC gotta get here fast! Can't wait.
Do not hesitate.

Wow that's amazing. Is the $3.6M in US alone or the world?
A world w/o walls and fences - who needs Windows and Gates?
| |
It's units, not dollars. Meaning actual games sold. But my guess would be that it was worldwide.
I'm forever blowing bubbles!

I think GTA is more like Overrated, the only thing i can see my friends doing is driving like an maniac and killing peapol i think the game has no point at all, but that is not actualy true though.
The only thing i do when playing the game is parashuting down a hotel, and see how low i can go before pulling the rope. xD | |||||||||||||
