record books |

SAN FRANCISCO: “Grand Theft Auto: IV” blew away
video-game and Hollywood records as its
creators reported last week that it raked in an unprecedented $500
million in its opening week. Take-Two Interactive said approximately
six million copies of “GTA IV: Liberty City Stories” have sold
worldwide, with more than half of those games snatched up within 24
hours of the game that hit store shelves on April 29.
Larger than movies
“Grand Theft Auto IV’s first
week performance represents the largest launch in the history of
interactive entertainment,” said Take-Two chairman Strauss Zelnick.
“We believe these retail sales levels surpass any movie or music
launch to date.”
