Grand Theft Auto IV vs. Iron Man

GT2000 · 05-01-2008, 10:06 AM

Some seem to think GTA IV's release could pose a threat to Iron Man's well being in the box office. Predictions are that the new GTA will take the record for highest selling video game over the first week of it's release, possibly around the $400 million mark, previously taken by Halo 3 with $300 million. Of course, Halo 3 came out on a single console, and GTA IV is releasing over the 360 and PS3. I picked up my 360 copy on release day, so far so good. Anyways, is it really conceivable that the release of this title could halt people from going to the theaters for Iron Man, a pretty anticipated flick?

Personally I was probably going to wait on the Blu-Ray..

Heh, are they really concerned that people won't be able to put down the game for 2 hours to go see a movie?

I haven't got a 360 or a PS3, but I did manage to play GTA4 at my buddy's place the other night. Game's real sweet. Gonna buy a 360 over this summer and definitely get this game.
