-AmpBSOD I really need this game. No where has them in stock
That's sad. I won't be getting it until the Xbox One. And probably after.
What I think is disappointing is that GTA V isn't coming out for Xbox One, not sure if it's true though, so don't take it out on me.

mightycarmods-InsanelyAwesome-SnuggleSockShadowBoltDashieYou know Call of Duty is one of the most played franchises in the world. I am pretty sure it will sale as good as GTA or maybe even better.Monster-MunchDr-Ponyfile $800 Million wow just wow but this was to be expected a game like this that was anticipated for a while now was going to go big they smashed all the other records and it is going to be hard for other companies to even come close to it good for Rockstar and Take Two.
I agree but Cod Ghost could be as big as that etc....
More people play COD then GTA, here is a quote from 'Undead' over at XboxMB;
"Call of Duty Ghosts will definitely outsell Grand Theft Auto 5. I'm not siding here its just logic. Look at it this way, when it comes close to Christmas and a kid wants Grand Theft Auto what do parents usually say? They usually say no because of the nudity, violence, language, etc. Now when it comes to Call of Duty the only thing is violence and language... So basically Grand Theft Auto is too mature in parents eyes because of the sexual materials in the game and the nudity. So Call of Duty will always outsell Grand Theft Auto, it may not be better, all the time."
More people have been excited about GTA 5 over CoD: Ghosts though. Now I'm not saying CoD: Ghosts will do bad, but it might not sell as good as GTA 5 did on the first day because of the hype over GTA 5.
You do know that GTA has the bigger fan base and is played by more people than Call of Duty. CoD: Ghosts will not come close IMO.

Who is Undead? Why quote that. Look what has more sales, GTA series does. Who holds the records? GTA does. Which franchise is dying? Call of Duty is. As will be proved with CoD: Ghosts when the sales start becoming less.
