The more i look into the sales the more i think what i believe what i said.  GT has been lowering in sales since it started in Japan with GT1 selling the most by quite a bit.  Whether it is gonna outsell Halo is gonna depend on NA, i really expect sales to continue to slide in Japan.  I'm sure it's gonna be big in Europe, even 4 sold almost as much as 3.  I can see it selling 5 million or more in Europe, and around a million in Japan, but whether it outsells Halo is gonna depend on whether NA can sell on par with europe or not.  The GT games that sold huge numbers actually sold more in NA than in Europe. 

 

GT3 1.89 million.

GT Concept - 0.43
GT4p - 0.79
GT4 - 1.16
= 2.38

No GT is not declining in Japan, strong as ever.

Lack of online really hurt the final build, theough Europe will eat it up no matter what it seems.  GT4 undersold due to online being cut, that was to be the big reason to upgrade from GT3 it really hurt its sales.

Now look how nuts about GT Europe is.

GT Concept - 1.13
GT4p - 0.57
GT4 - 5.73
= 7.43

Now think what full GT5, online Top Gear test track more Euro Excotic (Ferrari) will do. 

And crazy thing is as great as GT is, there is plenty that can be made better.

Why would you add prologue to the total sales it doesn't even make sense.  GT1 sold 2.55 million and it was downhill from there.  GT3 sold slightly more than GT2 but it went back down from there.  GT5 will not sell more than 4 in Japan.  No game has even sold half that much in Japan on PS3 yet.
