3. Grand Theft Auto V vs. Call of Duty: Ghosts
If you haven't been keeping up with the news lately, you might be surprised as to why I am pitting Grand Theft Auto V and Call of Duty: Ghosts. The former made $800 million in a day, and it eventually reached a billion in just three days. Many journalists say that it is the fastest selling entertainment property in history. Activision quickly responded by saying that they aim to take back the throne when their game comes out.
Did they beat Rockstar's game? Well, Activision says that they've sold a billion copies so far in one day. Wow! Why hasn't it been all over the news? That's because that's the sales they've made to retail stores, not to actual customers. Better luck next time!
