Take-Two have sent out a statement that it only took 24 hours for Grand Theft Auto V to reach sales of $800 million (£496 million). The release does not state how many copies that makes, but with the relatively pricey Collector's Edition making up a decent portion of sales the average price is probably a little higher than usual. The previous record holder - Call of Duty: Black Ops II needed five days to achieve the same amount of revenue.
