What are GT5:P sales? We have the estimate here, but in theory it's low because it doesn't include PSN.
OT - it could, but likely not by much. GT5 sales are likely to be way ahead of Forza 3 though, so for those who sales matter to in arguments its very probably going to be the case that GT5 is going to be proclaimed the clear winner.
Also, a lot depends on the holidays. I could see Forza 3 actually getting squeezed with MW2, etc. so it might end up behind Gt5:P. Boy, if that happens the Turn 10 guys are going to be spitting.
Either way GT5/Forza 3 flame fests and arguments are sure to continue.

the problem is that THERE IS A FM3 bundle but ... it is not everywhere and, for example, it is not in France
while the MW2 bundle is EVERYWHERE
MS doesn't seem to understand FM3 was their biggest weapon to get back europe OR there are still focusing too much on the FPS/online crowd that is mainly concentrated on ... NA !

Well, I do feel Forza 3 released a little to close to MW2 on 360, particularly given MS has got behind that title. I think MS is always drawn towards defending its position with 360 in America and getting behind big franchises, as it did with GTA 4, which I think does hurt titles like Forza 3, which could actually help the console get better penetration to new users than another FPS (no matter how big).
Particularly in Europe I'm surprised how little hype there is behind Forza 3, while interest in GT5 is now starting to ramp up. If I was MS I'd get behind MW2 in US, but I'd actually be making Forza 3 and Forza 3 bundles my big push before GT5 lands - after that I think the racing demographic is going to be tied up in PS3.

I agree completely
After GT5 lands, it'll be too late to do anything though
