The difference between MGS and GTA is huge.
MGS3 - 4M [according to this site... I believe it's over 4.5]
GTA:SA - 18M
Now explain these to me:
GTAIV [PS3]: 5.9M
MGS4: 4.3M
MGS4 was exclusive and sold on par with previous games.
GTAIV on both platforms rolled in 13.3M sales already and is showing great legs. The reason SA has it's amazing sales is because of the great sales over time. Both versions of GTAIV are showing great performance combined compared to SA. MGS4 on PS3 is showing great performance compared to MGS3. A game that was released during the PS2's prime AND during November for US and EU [holiday season]. Explain??? Multiplatform.
Shipment numbers. [SHIPMENT. As in doesn't include downloads]
GT5p EU - 2.33M Shipped
GT5p Asia - 100K Shipped
GT5p Japan - 690K Shipped
GT4p EU - 410K Shipped
GT4p Asia - 160K Shipped
GT4p Japan - 790 Shipped
I don't have US here because there were no numbers for GT4p US. However, looking at this... I would say the GT franchise is stronger than ever. Why the "Weak" psp sales??? First PSP GT. Considered by critics to be a poor game. Huge download numbers on piracy sites.
