A lot of things go against GT6. It releases after the start of the next generation, it's not a huge gamechanger over GT5, especially not after just a quick glance, an obvious hint at a PS4 coming does not help as well. A lot of the early adopters of next-gen platfroms are going to sell or pretty much ditch their current gen consoles after GTA V. I also don't see a lot of positive buzz and hype around it.
That said, I don't believe vgchartz preorders one bit, cause you know next week we can get a huge ass adjustment like the ones for GTA V and suddenly GT6 has 200k preorders for all I know and what it's worth. Plus US market is a small factor in GT sales overall. The game has still 3 months to release, a bit of marketing for people to know it's coming out and I think it will be ok.
Gran Turismo is synonymous with racing simulator and will sell very good, just probably not as good as GT5, it's legs won't be as good due to the next gen consoles. I still stand by my stance when it was revealed as a PS3 game that it is a bad idea, and as a PS4 launch exclusive instead of DriveClub would be a killer system seller, sell probably as good or better than the PS3 version lifetime due to typical legs, maybe just not give as good profit cause less copies would have been sold for full price, but overall a way better business decision.
So it is happening...PS4 preorder.
Greatness Awaits!
