Grand Theft Auto IV's sales surpassed those of last year's best-selling title from Microsoft, Halo 3. That title established a new, single-day sales record of $180 million dollars.

Take-Two estimates that on its first day, GTA IV sold 3.6 million copies and generated $310 million in sales, far surpassing Halo 3's performance.

I wonder if X360 sales beat Halo3. GTAIV has an advantage in sales due to cross platform support.

It's still surprising to see it sell that much. I bought my 360 just for Halo.

60% of sales are on the Xbox console
