With the most awaited title for the PS3/XBOX360 being released last week, Take-Two have released the sales data for the game on the two consoles....

In total, GTAIV sold 6 Million Units globally, bringing in an estimated $500 million, and of the 6 million units sold, over half (3.6 Million to be close to the exact value) were sold on it's opening day (estimated $310 million).

Console wise, the current standing is that the XBOX360 has managed to sell 20% more consoles than the PS3 (at least in the UK).

"We knew Grand Theft Auto IV would break new ground in terms of the player's experience, with its compelling story line, extraordinary gameplay and action that ranges over a broad urban canvas. Now, it has broken sales and rating records as well. Grand Theft Auto IV's first week performance represents the largest launch in the history of interactive entertainment, and we believe these retail sales levels surpass any movie or music launch to date. We congratulate the entire Rockstar team on creating a must-have experience that takes the legendary Grand Theft Auto franchise to a new level," said Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two.
