But in cold hard sales figures GTA IV sold 609,000 units in the UK, beating out the previous title holder GTA: San Andreas which shipped 501,000 units during its 2004 release. The Xbox 360 share of this booty was 335,000 units, knocking off even Halo 3 which shipped 266,000 units on its opening UK sales day. 274,000 PS3 owners in the UK are now wandering the gritty streets of Liberty City. According to one report retail stores in the UK are experience a shortage of stock, this may dampen the ultimate success of the title, but either way, as we believed, GTA IV will be a cultural phenomenon .
