Repeat after me…500 MILLION dollars..half a billion.

Man.

I’ll let that sink in a moment. Just imagine the theme from Jeopardy playing…

Okay so the one week global sales of GTA IV is half a billion dollars. That is more then the gross domestic product of some countries. One company and one game.

You think EA knew this when they bid to take over Take Two (Rockstar’s parent company?)

Read it here.

I’m just amazed. The previous one week record holder was Halo 3; a game that dissapointed me on so many levels.

GTA IV does not dissapoint. I’m glad to be part of the people paying that half a billion.

Now I hope Rockstar doesn’t dissapoint on the Downloadable Content. If you are reading this, anyone at Rockstar, do me a favor and put in a savable FILM feature in the game. There are so many great moments I’ve had that would be awesome to see…

Like when my friend and I were playing and I started up my helicopter we cheated in…and something blew my heli straiht up in the air. I had to fight for control to get it to stay flying.

That was only one of a bout a hundred awesome experiances so far. We need something like Halo 3 has; that would be my first want on a wishlist of add-ons for GTA IV.
