I didn't even realise it at first but when I saw GT5P selling 2 million being just a 40$ demo I noticed how a lot of people in all 3 main regions just love Gran Turismo.
(many people got distracted by lbp and forgot that this is actually ps3's biggest gun and last chance)

 

no, because there wasn't any decent arcade simulation on ps3 then.

if anyone thinks that GT5 will sell 10mln+ he must be retarded.

1. ps3 userbase won't be that huge as psx/ps2 - ps3 probably won't even hit half of ps2 userbase.

2. prologue was released worldwide and definitely will get most full-gt5 improvements by patches plus few cars and tracks so many people won't buy gt5 since prologue will be enough for them.

3. there will be plenty arcade simulators on the market when gt5 gonna hit so it will be tougher for polyphony digital game.

4. before full gt5 will be released forza 3 will hit the market(maybe even forza 4) and will steal many gt5 fans that are tired of waiting and don't want to throw 400$ for console and 1 game.

5. gt5 will be released in 2011 or later which means near the end of this generation just before or after xbox 3
will hit the market and trust me first thing MS will release will be new forza and halo.

 

so no gt5 won't sell 10+mln maybe 4-5mln, but nothing more

1. The PS2 was at some 13M at the time of GT5's release. The PS3 is selling pretty well overall and probably won't stop selling soon.

2. Maybe, but GT5 will have even more stuff. Besides, I doubt they'll want to stick with Prologue anyway. You're group of people is probably too small.

3. On the PS3? I haven't heard of any high-profile ones; GT5 is the only one. Yes, brand name is always a huge factor.

4. I though the makers of Forza were working on something else? That is, Forza 3 will probably be delayed until pretty late. Besides, GT is a huge brand and still a different game from Forza so it won't be that big.  Some impact, yes, but you're exaggerating.

5. 2011? I doubt it. Without Prologue they seemed to be aiming for Mid-2009 but now GT5 might be delayed to 2010. No longer, though, unless something unexpected comes up.

 

10 M? In this gen with with such a bad world economy? Twingo you've lost your marbles.
