GTA 5 'could outsell Call of Duty'

4.8
Analysts have predicted that Grand Theft Auto 5 could sell over 18 million copies, which would knock Call of Duty off of the top spot on the charts.

Sources estimate that development costs for the game will total around $137.5 million. That's taking into account a 250-strong development team working over five years. It is also estimated a marketing spend of between $69 million and $109.3 million.

The game could sell anywhere between 16 million and 25 million, generating profit from $193.6 million to $390.8 million.

It is said that GTA 5 could also give Activision's Call of Duty a run for it's money on the top of the charts. Which we all know full and well that Call of Duty normally has annual chart dominance.

Ok, yes the game will be successful but who in their right mind would think that it would outsell Call of Duty

Even though Call of Duty sucks, its probably gonna sell 2x more than GTA will

vokal usually GTA is actually well made new engine and all, while call of duty is just a copy paste with a few new images,guns and tiny maps sitting on a heavily modified revision of the quake engine.


Exactly...

I think it will. I used to love COD and play it everyday but it is getting very overplayed and boring. looking foward to gta 5.

I personally think that GTA5 will have the chance/potential to outsell CoD because CoD is slowly starting to die out and GTA5 is anticipated by lots and they are foaming at the mouth to play it.

There's a reason why GTA 4 hit platinum and only 1 CoD and arguably the best cod has platinum. (Cod 4)
