Well Rockstar seems to have a good reason to think...

That GTA5 should break 1 billion in sales in its opening month...

It just broke 800 million in its first 24 hours

Jaw dropped when I saw that article.
800 million in 24hrs is crazy.
Has any other game come close or best that ?

I don't think so. And i don't think too many will reach that since there is so much competition this coming hoiliday season. The only thing i think that might if it ever did happen would be a Final Fantasy VII remake on the ps4. Gotta remember the budget of the game was close to 300 million.

Black Ops 2 had the record at $500 million.

you dont think it can make another 200 million in what 30 days? It made 800 mill in the FIRST day. Unless the whole ordeal is more of a front loaded sales projection this is gonna obliterate 1 billion. And it was said somewhere that they made their money back on preorders alone. The budget they spent was 292 million
