| disolitude said: When there is no choice people go with what they have available... so Mario Kart and Smash Brothers should sell to infinity and beyond. Won't GTA4 outsell it tho considering mulitiple platforms? |
Funny, I have lots of choice of games I want to buy but haven't yet (money issue)
Mario Kart sells because it is a damn fine game.
And no GTA4 won't, because it isn't a damn fine game, it sold early on because it was hyped, but it has slowed down significantly... Mario Kart will surpass the combined console sales of GTAIV before the end of January, maybe even before the end of December if the Christmas boosts are significantly in it's favour.
@OP... I think it's a tough call, post-Christmas sales could be similar to what the sales are now if it follws the path of MKDS, in which case I would say yes it will manage it, but it might slow down in 2009.
In all truth though, you need to add some of the Xbox versions sales to the SA total, because the Xbox version released within a year of the PS2 version (about 8 months after it seems) Unfortunately there is no weekly data for the XB version, only a total figure.
