GTA IV will easily overcome Halo 3

When Microsoft announced that Halo 3 got $300 million in the first week it was claimed the fastest selling game in history. It is really amazing results, but Mike Hickey from Janco Partners thinks that record will fall under pressure of GTA IV. Newcoming game is cross-platform(Xbox 360 and Playstation 3) and that automatically means bigger auditory for sale. Mike says 5,3 million copies will be sold in the first week. If it happens then new product of Rockstar will become faster selling then fresh Bungie game.

And it's one more argument for developers to think about making their games cross-platform. Expensive projects are now not so profitable if they are released for only one console platform.

Halo 3 makes record

Microsoft logo Microsoft did the biggest launch in entertainment history. This title came from Halo 3's first day of selling. $170 million of 24 hours of selling were enough to overcome Spider-Man 3's opening weekend.

Halo 3 logoHopefully such an excellent launch will help Microsoft's Xbox 360  division to start making profit at last. 

There's also problem with scratches over the Halo 3 Limited Edition discs.  There's Microsoft's replacement program, if you got scratched disc, but shipping takes two weeks . So it would be clever to open your copy right after purchasing in the store and exchange it if you find scratches on the disc.
