The highly anticipated release of Grand Theft Auto IV is off to a lucrative start as the Take-Two Interactive Software game has brought in more than $500 million in global sales in its first week on the shelves.
That $500 million translated into more than 6 million games sold including an astounding 3.6 million on its debut date of April 29. The sales easily surpassed last year’s record-setting totals of $400 million brought in by Microsoft’s “Halo 3.”
