now that is one heck of alot of games sold in 1 day. I have to say, I cant imagine anybody regretted spending that money either. Its a great game. And I'm really glad that the video game industry gets such boosts as this that put it past the film and music industry. It makes me proud

Spiderman 3 sucked. Come to think of it, the first two were overrated as well. I hope GTA IV isn't overrated as well, but I guess I won't find out first hand until it comes out for PC (and it will come out for PC or there will be hell to pay).

Console games are severely overpriced and have been for quite some time for every company but Nintendo. Surpassing movie sales is really not all that impressive when everything is considered.

"Fastest" in 24 hours implies the number of copies sold in 24 hours; prices for individual copies differ depending on the product, so gross earnings would only be an accurate measure of speed if all products were the same price. HP7 grossed $220 million in 24 hours, but the number of copies sold within that time period far surpasses 3.6 million, so it actually sold much faster, despite grossing less.

lol, I love the Spider-Man 3 comparison considering GTAIV costs anywhere from 8-10 times more per sale.

And I love how it took something on both major systems to dethrone a 360 exclusive.
