about GT5 advertising :

Yesterday, at cinema, at Paris, before the "news" Woody Allen movie

I have seen an advert with super car and little hit at Sony and GT5 !

I was like : "wow, this is the first GT5 ads !"

But, at the end, I realized it was ... an Audy ads !!!!!!!

;(

Time to Work !

Misleading much? I thought it was out early in UK, LOL.

Agreed, sounds like a CVG headline alright...

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Shopto is very different from other UK stores, i can guarantee that.

In shopto PS3 sell much better than x360, a thing that is not reality in overall uk.

In Brazil there are A LOT of people that import ps3 games from Shopto.

I would not be surprised even if Move sells better than Kinect on Shopto.

OT, but why would brazilians import from shopto when the dollar is weaker than the pound? Seems dumb to me.

A new game from USA is $60

A new game from shopto is £32 or even less.

Also games get cheaper very fast in england. I paiyed £13 in Uncharted 2 in June in while in the USA was still $44 in the cheapest place possible.

Also, is not only brazil, there are a lot people from Europe that imports games from england, of course by internet. And the rest of europe loves ps3.

Delivery. In US Stores you need a credit card with US address but in Shopto no.

It's easy and the control of imported products let it pass without paying the extra fee.

Another site that brazilians import games was PlayAsia.

I doubt it can sell that great, no gran turismo game have sold over 600k in the UK

Didn't Forza 3 do that? That's kinda embarrassing actually.

Is there a link for Forza 3 and GT sales in the UK?

Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

just sayin that other, bigger UK retailers have CoD > GT5 (GAME, Amazon) which has more validity than shopto.net saying GT5 is the biggest.

Hell even Fable 3 is close to GT5 at the moment (at least this week) and that's not comming out next week like Medal of Honor.
