Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 5 is no stranger to controversy as we’re sure those of you who are currently playing the game are all too well aware. The M-rated video game contains subject matter that would make even the most hardened gamers blush, although one thing that seems to be circulating around Grand Theft Auto 5 is its supposed racism against one of its main characters.

Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 5 released just last week, with many console gamers probably spending every waking moment with the game. As such, DefendTheHouse has returned with a new series of Mythbusters videos aimed at popular video games where they attempt to debunk rumors of things you can inside of the game. Considering Grand Theft Auto 5 just released, you shouldn’t be surprised to hear they have focused their latest video on the hugely-popular game. (more…)

The numbers are in for the launch of Rockstar North’s and Take-Two Interactive’s video game Grand Theft Auto V. The numbers show that during the first 24 hours of availability GTA V had sales of more than $800 million worldwide. That was enough to make it the best selling game in the first 24 hours in the history of Take-Two Interactive.

The $800 million haul also made GTA V the fastest selling game in franchise history. The game launched on September 17 for the PS3 and the Xbox 360 game console. It’s also worth noting that sales tally doesn’t count Japan and Brazil.

As always, GTA V has polarized critics who blame game for inciting violence among children and ruining morals around the world. It certainly hasn’t stopped gamers from buying the game in droves.

Rockstar Games released its open-world crime simulator Grand Theft Auto 5 this week, which as a result has created quite a few stories of interest including a retailer handing out “fake cocaine“ to those who pre-ordered the game, a robbery and some guys acting like police officers in order to get the game early. As crazy as people have been going over Grand Theft Auto 5, there isn’t any news as crazy as reports of how much the game sold on its first day.

Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 5 made a total of $800 million in just its first day of sales worldwide, according to Take-Two. This makes Grand Theft Auto 5 the leader in terms of highest first-day retail sales for Take-Two as well as any previously released Grand Theft Auto game and is set to break other records soon as analysts believe the game will cross the $1 billion threshold very soon.

What probably helped in the game receiving this kind of reception was due to the fact around 8,300 retail stores in North America held special midnight openings in order to meet consumer demand for the title. We’re sure it’ll only be a matter of days until we hear Grand Theft Auto 5 has hit $1 billion in sales, with sales certainly expected to pick up over the upcoming holiday season.
