and GT4 sold 8.79 million on a console with an install base infinitely greater than PS3s.


 GT2 dropped in sales after GT1. So if you go by that. GT5 will sell more than GT4. Knowing that the trend goes like this.

GT sales > sales of GT2

GT2 sales < sales of GT3

GT3 sales > sales of GT4

Based on this trend, GT4 sales< sales of GT5

So GT5 should sell more than GT4. And what if Sony bundles GT5 like they did GT3? Will sales spike? This topic would make more sense if both Mario Kart and GT5 released soon and we knew whether Nintendo or Sony would bundle any of these games, so that's not the case. 


 Yet the biggest trend has already been broken, with PS3 in third place
