No, it's just an observation made on the current gaming climate. If you want to see how "big" Halo is to todays market you need only look back 9 months to ODST or about 3 years to Halo 3. To go back to a time when GT was a big deal, you have to span 6 years and an entirely different console, in an entirely different market.
thismeintiel said: GT5 will definitely outsell Reach in total sales. I mean you have to consider that GT is Sony's biggest franchise. |
That doesn't mean much. That just means they've had a single game sell over 3 million, it's not like Sonys other franchises ever top that by any great amount.
The biggest PS3 exclusive currently sits on under 5 million. Microsofts top one is more than double that and Nintendos quadruple or octuple even. Being the biggest fish in a little pond doesn't account for much in the bloodied ocean where the big fish swim.

Explain to us then why this will result in a lower sales effect instead of a greater sales effect like we have seen for :
CoD4>MW2
Assassins Creed>Assassins Creed 2
Bad Company> Bad Company 2
Left 4 Dead > Left 4 Dead 2

Well i'd like to know what you're break down for this is globally.
