Gran Turismo 5 will almost certainly sell more than halo reach

Fact - GT1, GT3, GT4 have all sold better than the best selling halo game to date, halo3
True GT2 was a disaster it only sold 9.3 million

This and the fact that this will be the first full GT game on the PS3 vs halo reach which isnt the first for the xbox360 means its practically an impossibility

Hell even GT5 prologue has sold more than the latest halo game : halo : ODST

The only thing in doubt is by how much GT5 will outsell halo : reach, Most likely in the region 4 -8 million

WRONG

GT and GT3 are the only ones to have outsolde Halo 3 (so far 400k from outselling GT.)

lol wot? a game can't sell more than the previous (MW2 says hello ...)

Again ... not by our numbers .. if you're talking about Download as well, ODST is going to sell 5 mill + easily.

Ok now I KNOW you're joking ...

 

According to VGC:
Halo 3 Sales: 10.45 million

According to Polyphony Digital website (as VGC GT4 won't have been updated in ages):
Gran Turismo 4: 10.85 million (link: http://www.polyphony.co.jp/english/list.html)

So, to date GT, GT3 and GT4 have outsold Halo 3. I wouldn't be surprised if Halo 3 did outsell GT and GT3 later, but it has yet, which is what he said.

As for the rest of the stuff, I would have to agree with you (apart from the download rate of ODST, I think that would be considerably lower in terms of ratio download:disc than GT5: Prologue would have been. One factor: not all 360 owners can even download ODST, as not all owners have HDDs).

I do think that GT5 could well outsell Halo Reach for the year, because it is launching earlier. By 4-8 million? Only if Halo Reach doesn't actually launch in 2010.
