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.

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
