According to The Scotsman, GTA V cost roughly $266,000 to make and is expected to rake in $1 billion in sales. This puts it in the blockbuster film category. It is speculation on The Scotsman's part, but it makes sense.

As a gamer, this is a must-have on release date. Why? Because each and every release has been improved upon and has always had countless hours of fun. Ask any gamer, they are buying this.

Five years in the making, the game’s development and marketing budget of £170 million is the equivalent of a blockbuster film. Such is the success of the series, industry experts believe its latest incarnation will rewrite the record books, shifting 25 million copies in the first year alone, achieving sales of £1bn.

Confidence in the release is such that shares in Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar’s parent firm, have nearly doubled in value in the past year.
