The latest sales numbers have passed $300 million, and the title has set records in the UK for the fastest selling video game title. The title alone brought in 54% of the fourth quarter sales of 2004. In a press release ending the fiscal year of 2004, Take 2 Games announced the success of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It has sold over 20 million copies to date, no small accomplishment.īoasting partnerships with leaders of the entertainment industry such as Interscope Records and Universal Music, Rockstar aimed to compliment their game with one of the strongest soundtracks ever in a video game.
This addition to the Grand Theft Auto series was warmly welcomed by the general public, and strengthened Rockstar Games' position at the head of the industry. The title was surrounded by enormous hype during its development, and is widely recognised to have passed the expectations set upon it. Set during the 90's in the pseudo-California state, we hit the streets of three cities with Carl Johnson, our newly met gangster. Two years after the release of the mega-hit 'Vice City', Rockstar Games presented us with a new chapter in the Grand Theft Auto book, 'San Andreas'.
