This latest iteration of the violent videogame, which retails for about $55, had sales of $800 million on Wednesday, its first day out, hijacking the previous record for first-day sales set by Grand Theft Auto IV ($310 million). On Friday, the company said estimated sales of the game reached $1 billion during its first three days, saying it was the fastest any entertainment property, including video games and feature films, reached that milestone.
