[Administrator]

Grand Theft Auto 5 has, after just three weeks on sale, beaten the lifetime sales of Grand Theft Auto 4 in the UK.
Rockstar North's open world game sold over 1.57 million units in the UK alone in one day, generating eye-watering revenue of £65 million. The previous day one record was held by Call of Duty: Black Ops, which sold 1.41 million units and generated £58 million upon its 9th November 2010 launch.
Now, after three weeks on sale, GTA5 is already the UK's 12th best-selling game of all time. As for revenue, GTA5 is in fifth place in the all-time money-making list, behind four Call of Duty games. But it's on the up - GTA5 revenue has already almost equalled the total of Call of Duty: Black Ops.
