Greatest Hitz peaked at number 47 on the Billboard 200.[6] AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine said, "None of [Greatest Hitz] has aged well – as a matter of fact, it's aged incredibly quickly, sounding older than alt-rock hits from the mid-'90s – but that's almost beside the point, because this does its job well, and listeners who want to have some Limp Bizkit in their collection will find this to provide them with more of what they want than any other Bizkit dizc."[5] In The Essential Rock Discography, Martin Charles Strong gave the compilation a 7 out of 10 rating.[4] As of 2012,[update] the album has sold over 3,500,000 copies worldwide, including 750,000 in the US.
