Well, GTA IV supposedly sold six million copies in its first week.

Console and video game sales figures are notoriously hard to nail down considering how exacting many other entertainment figures are (like, say, box office). But I'll say 4-5 million copies in a week. It's been a while since GTA IV. I'm not as hyped about this one. I'll play eventually, though.

That would barely be a breakeven point. That's kind of amazing. - David Sep 8, 18:18 3
- Black Ops 2 supposedly sold 7.5 million copies in 24 hours. -- nm - Tim Sep 8, 18:24
- I wish the numbers on game and console sales were more transparent. -- nm - Tim Sep 8, 18:23 1
  - I'm sure they have subsidized the daylights out of it with tie-ins, but that's still a remarkable expense. -- nm - David Sep 8, 18:27
