Five years after the release of Grand Theft Auto IV, Rockstar Games’ highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto V finally launched yesterday to record-breaking numbers and almost universally positive reviews.  The game brought in over $800 million in its first day of release, which breaks the previous day one record of $500 million in sales held by 2012’s Call of Duty: Black Ops II.  That game went on to take in over $1 billion in its first 15 days of release, so GTA V is expected to be insanely profitable despite its reported $240 million budget.  We’ll see if that record holds when Call of Duty: Ghosts is released on all platforms this November, but right now Grand Theft Auto V looks to be a massive success all around.  Click here to buy GTA V on Amazon.
