GTA IV Takes UK Day One Record News

UK data tracker reveals over 600,000 units of Rockstar Games' latest instalment; Xbox 360 manages to secure more sales...
It's been revealed today that Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto IV, which launched on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 yesterday, has taken the record for day one sales in the UK.
News of the record was released by UK data tracker, Chart Track, which revealed to UK-trade mag MCV, that over 609,000 units of the game were sold during the initial 24-hour sales period.
Of this, 55% of sales were for the Xbox 360 edition, whilst the PlayStation 3 broke another record, becoming the biggest selling title on the Sony platform since it launched in the UK in March 2007. GTA IV overtook the previous day one record for the console held by Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, which managed 80,000 units in its first twenty-four hours.
Speaking to MCV, Chart Track director, Dorian Bloch said, "We'll get into the whole week one debate next Tuesday, but it's been a very good 24 hours for both Sony and Microsoft...If they [Rockstar Games] don't even sell one more unit, it's still an astounding week one performance. Barring a catastrophe, with lorries bringing stock into stores going AWOL, we can only see that sales number going up and up."
