[QUOTE="ManInFlames"]Why would we butthurt? We get to play the highest rated game this gen on Metacritic and arguably the best game of all time. Not to mention that GTA V made over 1 billion in 3 days, making it the most succesful launch in entertainment history.ManInFlames

 

If you're going by metascore the greatest game of all time is Ocarina of Time. Look at sig (the advantage is even bigger if you take the metacritic for the PS3, which is lower than the one for the 360).

lmao nope. GTA V(or GTA4) have over 70 more reviews than OoT, not to mention that 2013 standards are alot f*cking higher than 1998. Also, OoT is missing from Metacritic's Highest Rated games of all time list cause it has very few reviews so it doesnt qualify. Now run along little sheep and enjoy your Wii U :lol:

Or maybe it's because there simply aren't that many review sites in 1998? Standards do increase, how many games owe it to Ocarina of Time for laying the foundation for every 3d adventure game?

Speaking at a mobile innovation conference with Mobile Entertainment last night, the developer said It [GTAV] will achieve around $1 billion in revenue on consoles in just one month, after noting the games popularity.

Sounds impressive doesnt it? Molynuex asked rhetorically before adding No. Thats not impressive.

Molynuex continued by comparing the sales of GTAV, a big budget AAA title to the Mobile platform and mobile games who he says are achieving between $3 million and $5 million a day.

That is impressive, Molynuex concluded.

1 billion in 3 days is very impressive, as it will continue to sell day to day also. very impressing.

Either way GTA V and IV's critical acclaim today is a more impressive feat.
