The only way GT5 will outsell Halo Reach is if your throw in International Sales figures.. due to lack of intrest in the xbox 360 and FPSes in Japan. So when you throw International sales figures into the mix yes... But, North American sales figures alone....simple...No. I mean look at reserved games right now... HALO Reach is at 325,000 with 14 wks left before release.. with a weekly change of 25,000 units (this number will reach probably 1 million by launch) While GT5 is sitting at 75,000 reserved titles with a weekly change of 833 even if it reaches over 100,000 reserves which it will... it will still be over 900,000 sales short and by then maybe 1 million plus behind Halo Reach. A Racing game will not erase that deficit. |
So u re saying gt5 ll only have 100k preorders in us by release? ROFLMAO
Ok here re few facts, at the moment reach is lacking in preorders compared to halo 3 and mw2 preorders on 360. If im correct halo 3 did about 3 millions first week WW. Then this holiday u have black ops, moh and maybe crysis, all these titles ll take costumer here and there from reach. So i think reach ll not do better than halo 3 first week. Its proven times and times again this gen that install base doesnt matter, it can do better or worse its hard to predict.
So....in usa i beleive reach ll outsell gt5. Actually im 95% sure.
Worldwide, dont think so, althought anything can happen. GT is strong in japan, usa and escpecially here in eu. What halo s to NA gt is to EU. SImply gt is part of culture, life. I know 30,40 years old guys how dont play games at all but ey buy and play every gt when it comes out.
Im 95% sure gt5 ll do over 2 millions first week WW, and we all know how big legs gt games have.
POint is, WW gt5 can do it, in USA no.
