Xbox LIVE GTA IV Numbers

Wired has made a post that rounds up some of the GTA Numbers following Take 2’s $500 Million dollar announcement earlier today. A lot of you have asked for some GTA LIVE numbers, so let’s take a look a what we have so far:

In the first week, more than 2.3 million people played Grand Theft Auto IV on Xbox LIVE
GTA IV is now the number one played game on Xbox LIVE (as you already know)
Over the weekend, we saw the Xbox LIVE service reach 1 million concurrent users
Gamers have unlocked more than 12 million achievements worth over 100 million gamerscore points in GTA
Grand Theft Auto IV set a new record for time played, with the average gamer spending more than four hours playing the game on LIVE in the first week alone

Not bad for a week, huh?

More numbers around console sales have been posted at the Gamerscoreblog
