Is Grand Theft Auto V going to be the best-selling "traditional" videogame of all time?
It's now sold 6 million retail copies in its home country of the UK. That's one for ever 11 people in the UK, and that excludes digital.
And 70 million shipped world-wide on last update, and it's still in the charts basically everywhere.
When all is said and done, there's a good chance it becomes the highest grossing piece of media of all time.

Too bad its honestly the worst in the series. Only 3 is as bad and it was the first so at least it has an excuse.
Nah, that's 2 by some margin. 4 is worse than 5 too.
>3 was the first one
>1st one
>1
>what is 3D gta's
4 is by far the worst
>what is technicalities and specification
There will never be another game that sells as many copies as GTA V. This is the commercial peak of the games industry
>traditional
This seems like some shitty doublespeak way to give an award to something that isn't actually in first place.
Pretty sure shit like Mario Kart Wii are still above it.

>4th on the list
>b-b-b-b--b-bbut according to my specific qualifications and semantics its number 1
nothing will beat tetris. this is a fact.
Why do people like the GTA series? It's an open-world where you basically just drive to your objective and shoot people. I never saw much appeal in it.
Even if we don't count Tetris, minecraft wins. You can't pull any real excuses for it. That shit wasn't given out for free nearly as much as shit like wii sports or tetris
really, 4 is the worst one? the worst? 4 laid the foundation for gameplay and graphics that 5 would work with. 4 wasn't well received because it was bitter medicine, it was trying to bring realism to the game and people hated it for it. but when you ignore the gray/drab filter and ignore the driving mechanics then you're left with a fantastic game that offers a gritty urban environment and a hell of a story to play through which is all you can ask of a gta game
>ignore the driving mechanics
>ignore one of the most important aspects to a GTA game
No.
reminder that by now people have bought a billion dollars in shark cards
>not using taxi fast travel
i mean, if you want to use the mechanic that makes the game last 20x as long then go ahead you fucking scrub
>play a GTA game and purposefully avoiding the act of Grand Theft Auto
GTA 4 apologists, everyone.
bruh, not even kidding, but it's a fucking game where driving is not the point. i know, i know, it's hard to realize the game started as one thing and changed into something else. who the fuck could conceive of such a thing? but it's true. it's called gta, but guess what? you have more fun with heists and shoot outs and other missions. stealing random cars and joyriding them isn't the best part. fucking mindblowing, huh? well, little buddy, it's just how it is and i'm sorry to have to break it to you but that's all she wrote.
and god doesn't watch you touch your peener at night but you should still stop doing it because it makes your sheets sticky and your mother hates cleaning that shit up.
>stealing random cars and joyriding them isn't the best part
Funny, every other game before and after 4 implies otherwise. Hell, 5's new online update is based entirely around stealing cars.
You're too busy being a sperg and going on random tangents to realize that though.
>single player franchise
>5's new online update
fuck that noise, son. i play gta for the story so suck a franklin dick and take a mike to yo ass
>And 70 million shipped world-wide
what the fuck
i honestly cannot believe that
15on PC. 15 on 3. 20 on 360. 25 on 4 and 5 on One not so Outlandish.
Those Tetris numbers are BS tho you can't count all those different versions by different devs as one game.
