Take Two/Rockstar Announce GTA Sales, Plans

Posted by simoniker on from the license-to-print-money dept.

Thanks to GameGossip for their coverage of a Take Two financial conference presentation in which the company revealed details on its software sales and plans. The company's Rockstar Games subsidiary has now, astoundingly, sold "over 25 million units" of the Grand Theft Auto franchise, and "over 20 million" of those were from GTA3 and Vice City alone. Looking forward, the company's financial officers mentioned the November 19th release of GTA developer Rockstar North's gory Manhunt as a highlight, and also noted that "mid-2004 would see the release of The Warriors from Rockstar", as based on Walter Hill's cult gang movie. Finally, the next iteration of Grand Theft Auto, name as yet unknown, "will ship during late 2004."

    GTA: Vice City sucks. Bad. It's a horrible game. Overhyped. Hell, I went out and bought it the day it came out. Dissapointing. There are more crappy games out there for Playstation than anything. It's almost as bad as the Atari 2600

    This has really gone too far. Fuck you. Yes, fuck all of you. I really mean it. From the bottom of my heart. This bullshit is just completely out of hand. I've been patient but no longer. Just fuck the whole fucking lot of you. This is just fucking bullshit.
