Or so they say. There aren’t a lot of actual sales numbers back yet, but THQ has shipped over two million copies of the well-received GTA-like game to retailers and seems to be riding high, while Bethesda’s highly-anticipated Oblivion With Guns has shipped nearly five million copies, and I don’t think that includes Steam, which was how I bought it.

I guess technically they’ve shipped an infinite number of copies to Steam, but quoting their shipping levels as “literally immeasurable” may be considered fiscally dishonest.
