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.

ME0W CoD has more followers.
Nowadays the quality of the game does not matter in comparison to fanboys.


That's true but A LOT of people are waiting for GTA 5.

I am really looking forward to GTA 5 so I wouldn't doubt if it out sells CoD

Wish it would, but IMO it's not going to. CoD has a bigger fan base, though GTA is going to be a mile better CoD fans won't know it, sadly.

CNTB I hope it does rockstar deserves it


COD is boring anymore, the games haven't really had much innovation since MW2, they're stale...

ImNotPhlegmAnymoreOKPosted:

MTV I don't think it will. It may come close though.


It probably will come close. Considering it takes 1-2 years for a COD game, and 5 years for a GTA game, they will both probably be great.

I just think that COD will get some more sales because of the name, and GTA is "forbidden" by parents. Some how they think COD is better. :/
