Yes, I contributed my money on a pre order of this and was at the midnight launch. AMAZING game and totally worth the money. looking at those numbers makes me think I'm not the only one who thinks so. Any other GTA fans in the house? -Bobby |

Man, I just could never understand the hype around GTA. I've tried numerous games in the series, and could never get hooked onto it. I don't know why. My brother is obsessed with the series, and he's buying the game today.

When the PC port comes, Rockstar I predict will shatter records again. GTA IV was a bit of a letdown, but, I really liked the previous installments.

I wonder how much the programmers and developers make, do they get any type of percentages?

They pulled in 1 billion dollars . I think that's profit.

I'm not really sure what the industry standard is anymore. I know a couple of guys who made a lot of money in royalties and used that money to start their own studio which is quite successful now. As far as how much they make, good game programmers will make over 100K. |

I was mistaken. I've been playing GTA V over the past few days, and I'm really enjoying it. I don't know why I couldn't grasp IV, though.
My favorite character has to be Trevor. |

IV was horrible but V is awesome. And yeah, Trevor is my favorite too.

I've never gotten into GTA. I play more "fantasy oriented" games like Ratchett and Clank, or Psychonauts.
I've also got the F.E.A.R. series and The Orange Box with Half-Life 2 so I'm not afraid of violence in games. I just never got into the whole "go out and commit crimes" as a game goal.
