Grand Theft Auto 5 vs Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 - Which Game Will Take The Top Spot?

Game & Guide: "Grand Theft Auto 5 and Modern Warfare 4 are two of the most anticipated video games of 2013, if not the top two on any given list. Therefore, we have to wonder, which one of these titans will come out on top in the sales department? We'll attempt to figure it out."

My vote (and purchase) goes to GTA 5.

Gta5 will sell the most...
But call of duty will sell a bunch too

I wish COD would just die already.

I know some people would say that GTA is overhyped too(I wouldn't), but I swear if its not GTA I'll die a little inside

GTA, I've managed to hold out on buying COD two years now. Battlefield all the way!

[Jaybronee]

God yes. BF3 totally ruined COD for me. Then Close Quarters came out and nailed the last nail into the COD coffin. Good job Dice. Now back on subject, GTA 5 is day 1 for me!!!

While GTA is definitely the better game, I say cod wins on the sales because it releases every year and the sheep flock to buy the games no matter what and each year cod is breaking records selling millions. GTA doesn't release yearly and the hype is usually built up within a 5 to 8 year span. Infinity ward can announce they are releasing another cod in 6 months and sheep will act all hyped about it and run out and buy it no matter what. Every year cod is breaking sales records we haven't got a new GTA in forever.

I heard an analyst recons that GTA 5 will sell 25 million copies in its first year.

[Sci0n]

It probably will but there is no way that can go up against the 20+ mill Cod sells every year the cod franchise will reach a billion sold before GTA would ever dream of reaching that. Infinity ward and activision can keep taking turns releasing watered down cod games and they will keep breaking sales records each year. You see so many people saying they are tired of cod but each year they keep breaking records in sales.

My vote goes to Battlefield 4!!! Really though,both will sell good,but I think with a new CoD coming out EVREY year its getting a bit stale! On the other hand GTA takes its time with new releases and I feel that builds up the excitment for it!

Comparing an announced game, about which we have significant details, with an unannounced (and might I add unconfirmed) game, about which we know nothing?

Yeah, not the most logical article I've ever read...
