@ waron, then why did MGS4 sell more then MGS3 first week?

- first Metal Gear game on nextgen console,

- ps3 exclusive,

- more western friendly game,

- end of the story,

- last Metal Gear Solid game(at that time it was THE last main MGS game),

- online multiplayer,

- Backward Compatibility ps3s in the MGS4 bundle(if they were released with MGS4 launch),

 

-first Gran Turismo on a next gen console (unless you count handhelds, in which case Portable Ops came before MGS4 anyway)

-MGS4 was no more western friendly than MGS3.

-More cars

-Day/night

-Online

-Damage

-Connectivity with PSP version

Your userbase argument is moot.

Also, GTA IV sold 2.5 million first week on PS3, and it was a first day multiplat with promised exclusive DLC on the 360. GT5 is exclusive, the series is almost as big, why can't it reach the same numbers?
