That's an extra 855,817, not 2 million.



5,144,214 vs 4,288,397

*Damn you, you've edited.

I pressed 2 instead of 1, but it was just a typo not an error of math

All I saying was efralope's time span for the two games wasn't really that fair.

of course long-term I expect San Andreas to sell better, but some of the outlandish comments made here deserve mentioning.

Well we've still got January to include. All I saying was efralope's time span for the two games wasn't really that fair.

Hey, I didn't comment because I knew Halo 2 was going to sell a monumental amount. I think it's silly to try to come up with some qualifier about how it's unfair to compare them because of a 2 week release difference

Oh, and 852,001 != 1,000,000

You realize what "approximately" and "rounding off" means, right ;P I wasn't going to write the specific number down, although I did do the math via the trusty Windows calculator.


Ah, you edited this out. Nevermind

I'm not sure whose more pitiful, the post that generate your response... or your lame f'n response.

I saw this too, DarienA! You and me ain't friends no more! :lol

These are U.S. NPD numbers only. Don't forget that GTASA has probably sold another 5-6 million copies internationally compared to Halo2 which is affected by a much smaller install base.

GTASA 10-11 million worldwide
Halo2 5-6 million worldwide

Yeah, using a calculator would have been a good idea on my behalf. My excuse is it's 2:05am.

:lol

And an extra 17 days on sale for Halo 2 would have surely helped cut that 800,000-odd number down some. But it's all ifs and buts, so who cares? I mean, really?

gotta be realistic here... if Halo 2 outsells SA, i'll eat my Halo 2 Limited Edition Aluminum Case...

haha, after november i was a bit shaken... guess i won't be eating my words...

 

[Jotaro]

I'll do it because I think the same, and I am canadian, so I will have to eat also the bilingual plastic cover on top of the metallic cover also! :lol
