Gran Turismo 5, the first 20 million selling GT... maybe.

Your points suck, two people already went through that with you. But fine some never really learn until they are beating hardcore.

- Well your whole theory is based on comparing a hand held to a console wtf, and two products that launched at two VERY different prices.

- You don't take into account PS3 price former current and future and its affect on sales.

- You don't get that FF13 and GT5 might light a fire under PS3 sales ass.

- Nor Sony or MS are in a rush to get the next gen started, MS have stated they believe this will be a longer gen then previous. While Sony is hell bent on the whole 10 year life cycle, and that is very profit based mentality not just empty words.

- you look at everything in a negative, maybe pull your head out of your ass for a few minutes and smell what the PS3 is cooking.

- Maybe just maybe you opinion is worthless and just wrong, maybe just the opposite will happen. Maybe.

Maybe you got your opinion across, you wont convince anyone so why bother.

Yeah I know, I'm being generous to the PS3 when I compare it to the PSP, it'll probably do much worse than the PSP, the PSP has the advantage of more hardware iterations and stronger Japanese sales and its sales trned and weekly sales have been much better than the PS3's.

Yeah actually I did, and the fact is, MS is going to be the one setting the tone in price cuts going forward, so price won't help the PS3's sales much, as they stand to lose a lot of money by price cutting so they'll be hesitant to do so, in addition it won't put PS3 sales on a trend line ahead of the PSP, as we've seen even now, the PS3 sales lag the PSP both in weekly and overall.

No FF13 won't its split in the west and in Japan its going to be frontloaded, look at other FF games, they have one week spikes.

GT5 will sell a little better, but its not likely to reach 10 million, its on a smaller base than the earlier GT's and no PS3 game has even gotten close to 10 million, so GT5 is unlikey to get to 10 million.

It doesn't matter what they said, before 2012, they'll be planning to launch, because before then, sales will be in decline, and Price cuts will basically be exhausted, as by 2011-2012, one or both of the top of the line 360 and PS3 systems will be around $150, not to mention, both motion controllers NATAL and Sony Wand will not meet with much success this gen, so both will be trying to launch them with their next gen consoles to cut into the Wii's base.
