GTA IV Made $500 Million in One Week

Industry analysts predicted that GTA IV would sell $400 million in its first week, but it sold a staggering $500 million instead.  Yes, half a billion dollars worth of sales for a video game in seven days!  I bet that no film, concert tour, or any other kind of media has ever generated that much cash in a single week!  I for one have been playing the game and can say that it is the most immersive game that I have ever played.  And yes, it is clearly *not* for kids.
