But the thing is PS2 sold 25 million units by year  in average in the two years following GT3 release

Also, how do you know, that PS3 won`t sell 25M per year following GT5 release? Came back from future? I see you as being only negative towards GT5 and PS3 sales. Even all facts in favour of GT you are trying to downplay. Why is that?

Why is that? Simply to be realistic. There is a difference between what you would like to happen and the reality. PS3 won't make a come back and GT5 won't reach 10 or 15 million. I don't have to be a fortune teller to know that, I just simply have to look at the market. There is no doubt GT5 will be a great AAA title but to think it will reach those type of numbers is just delusionnal.

So PS3 won`t sell even 60M LTD on which GT3 did around 15M? What so unrealistic in 60M+ LTD?

So 600k during PS3 slim launch week is nothing?
Selling around 250k+ every week since slim launch is weak brand?

Do you remember what PS3 sales people predicted for slim first week and first month?
PS3 lost its position in NA, but it`s still VERY strong in Europe and Japan.

And have MGS4 taught you anything?

Like I said before, the problem is when PS3 userbase will reach 60M+ LTD, nobody will care about GT5. Why do you think games like Mario Kart Wii is selling incredibly well? Simply because Wii is selling like hot cake right now and people who are buying a Wii take a copy of MK Wii in the same time. I know that MK Wii is destined for a larger audience than GT and will have more legs but the basic principle is there. Same for Halo.
