$400m expected in first week sales; Rockstar title set to claim ‘largest entertainment launch of all time’ crown
A Variety report has suggested that industry analysts and ‘sources close to Take Two’ are expecting the new much-hyped game will eclipse Halo 3’s $300m in first week sales. It could also topple the $404m raked in by the most recent Pirates of the Caribbean movie At World’s End within its first six days at the box office.
UK retailers have already been struggling with the huge demand for the title, and that’s before Sony confirms its expected GTA IV PS3 hardware bundle.
Thanks to Next-gen for the spot

Genius, a Multiplatform PS3/360 game that supports 40million consoles (12m PS3, 18m 360) sells more copies that a 360 only game (14m at the time).
Do you guys get paid to write this crap?
