When i said PS2 sold just 1 million? And NPD doesn't count bundles so out of 7 million only 1 or 1.5 million were sales from bundles.

(Sorry for the spacing here, VGChartz just messed up for me). I was mistaken about the Madden titles. Still, they merely total out 5M. Now, look at the X360 versions of Madden. They sell 1/3-1/4 later than their first year. For the Ps2, this is likely to be even moreso, as the average Ps2 owner was more "casual" (which results in longer legs, and smaller initial sales). All in all, the Maddens are likely to have totalled out 3.3-3.7 (I estimate) million only. Now, Gran Turismo sold a fair bit less than this, as it is lower placed. A rough estimate of 3M for the two years for GT3 seems the most logical to me. It did sell more than that, of course, so I would put the total sold at a good 4-5M, resulting in 3.5-4.5M of bundling. Still, that's not bad by any means.

Wouldnt it be easier to find out the ltd sales that NPD report for the game. then just - it from VGC numbers?
