Dear god that's a ton of copies.

 

[-MD-]

One day I'll get around to finishing it.

Spent like 20 hours in single player and dropped it for other games.

 

[EVA UNIT 01]

Have never played V.
Maybe ill jump in if theres a BF deal on it.

Is Mp char creation still awful?
Or do you finally have direct control of your edits?

 

[Goldenroad]

What's especially crazy is that I've never seen a new current-gen console version for less than $40 (Canadian), and it's usually still $60-70 at most retailers here.

 

[acksman]

Never bought this game, maybe I should check it out sometime.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Looks good. Will wait for price drop/bargain bin sale.

 

[silva1991]

Did it outsell Minecraft yet?

 

[ArkkAngel007]

And it's not even close to bargain bin prices either.

Absolutely crazy.

Not even close is a helluva understatement. Going the Nintendo model all the way with this one.

 

[OdysseusVA]

It just prints money

 

[DieH@rd]

Looks good. Will wait for price drop/bargain bin sale.

Get ready for a long wait then.

 

[farmerboy]

I must the only bloke who's never played or bought it.

Any of the GTA series for that matter.

 

[CountAntonius]

Sweet now they can afford dedicated serves!

 

[OdysseusVA]

I must the only bloke who's never played or bought it.

Nope
I haven't either and don't plan to

 

[BKSmash]

I must the only bloke who's never played or bought it.

Just look at some posts above you.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Completely deserved.

Game of last gen no doubt.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

70 million in sales plus its still keeping a really strong price at retail and that's not even counting the money they have made from GTA Online.

Its just a monster!

 

[Anth0ny]

Where's the sp DLC at ??

Such a shame the world they created felt pretty underused, for a sp guy like myself.

It's a case of opportunity cost at a ridiculous scale.

Why spend X on single player DLC to make Y when they could spend 1/2X on GTA Online DLC to make 4Y?

they'd make a killing on single player DLC. that much is obvious. but they'd make more on online stuff, and spend less money doing so -_-

 

[jambo]

Isnt that like 2x more than Wii U consoles?

 

[anthraxus]

Went back to play Gay Tony after beating 5 and realized 4 didn't have the bullshit health regeneration like 5 did. Also the physics and driving seemed much better than in 5.

 

[Muffdraul]

I used to applaud these GTA V sales updates, now I'm just bitter that all of the unwashed heathen masses have killed single player DLC. Thanks a lot, you easily amused fuckers.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Get ready for a long wait then.

Lol i kid. I was joking about how that will probably never happen. I played and beat it on release for PS3 but traded it in right after. Kinda regretting never getting into the MP. I was actually kinda hoping for a sale at some point for the remaster so I could jump back in for the MP. Looks like itll never happen tho.

 

[DMONKUMA]

Damn RDR2 should do fantastic as well then.

 

[DeadManWalking]

Cmon Bully 2!!! R* just do it.

They're already making tons regardless. Now they're just being greedy and can fuck right off then.

 

[Greatest Ever]

Since I'm already sipping on that Haterade from the BioShock Infinite thread, has anyone stopped by to talk about bad the main campaign is? Because it's pretty damn bad.

[keltickennedy]

With the current gen versions they totally reworked the creation system. It's much better.

[Formosa]

Such an overrated game imo.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Amazing

Crazy to think there hasn't even been any massive discounts on the game yet.

Yeah that's what is amazind about it. Most of those sales are at like $30 and up. So much fucking money

 

[thelastword]

And it will sell even more copies with a Pro patch. I haven't bought the game, many people have not. Didn't get it last gen, haven't got it now....I'm due to play a GTA game though.

 

[Dyson Industries]

Buy British!

/salute

 

[GeneralManager]

You could pick it up for like $23.99 at Best Buy with GCU just last week.

Edit: for the PS4

Yeah but I picked up Witcher 3 for $12 bucks and that's newer and not a updated port.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Phenomenal game. Still play it to this day.

I do too but I've never even gotten past the first heist. I will start the game and end up spending a couple hours just dicking around driving, shooting, and experimenting. Then turn the game off and go to bed.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

game is $30 on amazon right now, shit is just gonna keep selling and selling until 6 months after GTA6 has released

 

[Evil Monkey DTT]

Ships..... wait a minute you don't ship digital sales.

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

All I remember was that there was terrible input lag on ps4. Has that been improved?

 

[Cranster]

But still no singleplayer dlc...

Yup, nothing but lame excuses from Rockstar on the lack of singleplayer DLC.

 

[Struct09]

Those numbers are crazy. Best GTA though, too bad we will never get more single player content

 

[EGM1966]

Wow. That's pretty damn amazing.

Not really my cup of tea (didn't like previous GTAs) but actually rather liked GTA V when I played it. Wish there was more do to in subs for some reason.

I don't like their lack of clarify on what platforms will ultimately be supported at times (glares at RDR2) but can't deny with GTA R* have created a huge and influential phenomenon.

I presume they're gonna deliver Pro and Scorpio patches and drive ever more interest/sales? I mean why not?

 

[Obliterator]

I'm really damn curious what total GTAV revenue is. All copies combined as well as GTA Online purchases. We will likely never know the figure but it has to be ENORMOUS

 

[dragonzdogma]

So how much money did Sony or X1 made?

Is the 7% royalty even accurate in this image?

 

[clem84]

GTAV's insane initial budget... must not be much of a concern anymore.

 

[Peterthumpa]

So, we're talking about a gross performance of roughly US$ 3.5 BILLION when doing the math with the game going for $49.99? Is my math right?

 

[bomma_man]

I hope they invest that money into single player mission design (or at least pay for office copies of MGSV and Deus Ex) but they won't.

 

[MCN]

Rockstar North - single-handedly keeping the UK economy afloat.

 

[Akronis]

Lets see if they can do it again with RDR2 or GTA6 without the Benz.

 

[MCN]

When either of those games sell anywhere near this amount, maybe they'll have a reason to give a shit. It pisses me off in every GTA thread when people are moaning that such-and-such a game does X, Y and Z better. Nobody fucking cares. You're not fucking special for liking a different game.

Uhhh wow calm down. Apparently it's not OK to criticize GTAV?

No one gives a shit that you don't care. People will always compare systems of games to other games. That's how it works.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

the fuck :lol

 

[keidashxd]

Within the 70 millions are digital copies accounted? Or are we talking about maybe 80 millions or more?
