Bookmaker takes bets on GTA IV chart success

Popular bookmarker Paddy Power has started taking bets on how long Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto IV will remain at the top of the UK charts, offering odds of 9/2 that the crime epic will stay there for ten weeks.

Nintendo’s Wii Fit is currently lined up at the odds of 6/4 to knock the game off the top of the charts, followed by Mario Kart Wii, which is also a favourite to topple Rockstar’s latest epic.

Paddy Power has previously offered bets on a number of related topics in the videogames industry, such a last year, where the bookie ran bets on how low Sony would cut the price of the PlayStation 3 in Europe.

Stay tuned for our review on Grand Theft Auto IV soon.
