As expected, GTA4 has been a massive hit. Even more so on the Xbox 360 if the latest NPD figures are to be believed. A bone-crushing 1,850,000 copies of the game have sold on Microsoft’s console. The PS3 version wasn’t too far behind (considering it has a smaller user base at the moment) with a 1,000,000 copies.

The biggest winner however, were gamers. At least according to the NPD:

“It’s unusual for three games to exceed the 1-million mark in a non-holiday month which just goes to prove that great content can succeed regardless of when it is launched,” noted NPD analyst Anita Frazier.

And while Europe and North America rejoice in Rockstar’s instant classic, India still gets the short-end of the stick with the game slated to be out on Monday. Knowing the irresponsibility and unreliability of Take Two and it’s local partners, most of us are skeptical it’ll happen.
