  • GTA V breezes past 15 million sales, might surpass 25 million by year’s end

    Cowen & Company analyst Doug Creutz claims that GTA V has sold over 15 million units so far and is on a projected course to clear 25 million units sold by the end of this year.

    Below is the research note he sent to investor (via CVG)

    Based on the $1B three-day figure Take-Two disclosed, we believe the game has already sold through at least 15MM units.

    For a game to sell 60% of its first year units in just three days would be abnormally high; we estimate that Call of Duty sells about 45-50% of its first year units in its first week at retail.

    However, for now we are assuming that GTA 5 sales will be extremely front-loaded due to high gamer anticipation, and will also have a shorter sales tail given the launch of next-gen consoles in November.

    GTA V broke all records this month by becoming the fastest selling video gamer ever, beating previous record holder Call of Duty: Black Ops.

  • Rockstar Games Releases Three New GTA V Trailers

    Rockstar Games has released three brand new trailers for their upcoming blockbuster title – Grand Theft Auto 5 or GTA V for short. All of the three new GTA V trailers show off the game’s three protagonists showcasing their characters and why they do what they do.

    The first trailer is for Michael, the rich guy who’s bored of his life:

    GTA V hits stores September 17th for the PS3 and Xbox 360, pre-orders have already started. Although recent rumors are that the game will be arriving on the Wii U, PC and next generation consoles including the PS4 so if you want to play it on any one of those platforms then maybe you should wait a bit.

  • Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) Coming To Wii U, PC And Next Generation Consoles?

    Grand Theft Auto V or GTA V as the cool kids like to call it is only confirmed for the PS3 and Xbox 360 at the time of writing but new rumors ~(via International Digital Times) suggest that it’ll be announced for the Nintendo Wii U, PC and next generation consoles next month.

    Nintendo hasn’t been home to many of the Grand Theft Auto games, in fact it has only had three: the original Grand Theft Auto on the Gameboy Color, Grand Theft Auto Advance on the Gameboy Advance and the timed Nintendo DS exclusive Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

    Although the main GTA games have been a common occurrence on PC, Playstation and Xbox consoles so it wouldn’t surprise me much if Rockstar announces the game on the aforementioned platforms.

    The rumor dictates that the multiplatform announcement for GTA V will be announced at Take Two’s investment call on the 17th of May. Take Two are the publishers of GTA V of course.

    Rockstar updated their blog to announce the new Grand Theft Auto V release date, they posted the following:

    Dear all,
    Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013.
    We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.
    To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.
    Yours,
    The GTA Team

    Just a few days after releasing the second trailer for their much awaited title – GTA V, Rockstar via Vice President Dan Houser let fans of the game know that the PC and Wii U version are still ‘up for consideration’ and very much possible.

    IGN asked Houser about GTA V coming to the Wii U and PC:

    Everything else is up for consideration,

    That’s all I can give you. The main thing is we are not…we are a third-party publisher. We’re not Nintendo, we’re not Sony, we’re not Microsoft.

    We love all of them in different ways. But we can do what we want wherever there’s the appropriate business opportunity and chance to find a market. If that’s on Apple we put something on Apple.

    Wherever it might be. I think that’s the fun in what we do. We see ourselves as a content company that uses technology. We don’t make it; we use it to make the most fun stuff.

    GTA V is confirmed for release for the PS3 and Xbox 360 in Spring 2013.
