It needs to sell 2.6M by the end of the year for that to happen,with 4 weeks left.

It would need to do an average of 650k per week.It will only manage that for Christmas,hopefully.

Maybe I should have said a month and a bit.:)



I want to add that a lot of press factories will be closed at the end of the year so you won't have the time to print extra copies.. most are closed around the 23th of december till 3 januari while sales are ongoing.. so I have no problems seeing many units on the shelves.. they timed it correctly to have enough copies to get into safely into january..

We'll see, Because PD always keeps us informed of their shipments. And, it's hard for me to believe there more GT5 sitting in Europe than actual sold WW if we think about it. Or there is some major overshipping.

why do you guys keep feeding the troll?

anyway, fantastic sales. but maybe they overshipped to europe... or we're not tracking it right. also feels like NA is overshipped slightly but it could just be a hundred thousand or so units. even so, great job!


Not me.



I have no idea what the hell you guys are talking about. What I do know is that this game is doing very well WW and I can't wait to get it this Christmas or early January :D

Already shipped more than Prologue.  There were a few people who predicted it would do less than Prologue.  I suppose those predictions aren't working out so well now.

 

Good job for Sony.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

According to someone on Neo Gaf it sold about 7k week 1 in Croatia. No source though.
