Wow. I think we may really be seeing a change of leadership globally in the console market. It really looks like PS3 is the new primary console in EMEAA (minus UK) and Japan and 360 is taking over America's (though mostly US) an UK. I know it is far from enough data yet to say definitely but the evidence is starting to mount week after week and it is really looking like  a trend. This is going to be an interesting holiday.

Why do people think that GT5 is going to affect PS3 sales?

This game is a bit like Halo in the United States.  That's the impact it has.  The game is Sony's biggest Killer App.  Historically, the game has destroyed worlds.  One actually reached 15 million. You can justtell by the preorders and mounting hype.  There'll be a pretty decent boost.


Wow talk about overrating "destroyed worlds" lol, its really not that hard to be Sony's biggest killer app. Both of Microsoft's biggest killer apps stand above every game released by sony this gen.

I think historically GT has sold more than Halo and Gears per game on average.  So no.  And I was having fun with the "destroyer of worlds" thing.

"globally"

globally the ps3 is doing fine in EMEAA and Japan, but America not so much

globally the 360 is doing fine in America and the Uk, but EMEAA and Japan not so much

You can claim a change in global leadership when one of them actually LEADS GLOBALLY for an entire year, like the Wii as been doing on a constant basis, instead of a couple of short burst.

I know you were kidding about the destroyer part, but will GT outsell Halo Now!!! Just like playstations dominance is in the past, GT went with it.

I really don't see evidence for that idea in any of Sony's other IP's.  GoW and Ratchet and Clank both had comparable sales to previous entries of the series on PS2, I see no reason that GT is just going to magically drop in popularity when none of Sony's other IPs have done that.
