You need to update the GT5 release date which is november 2nd which is 18 weeks.

With these pre-orders they include over a week from E3 when the date was confirmed.

Interestingly if you put them in order of how many were pre-ordered in that week GT5 actually would be 2nd to last.

I wonder if those saying GT5 will outsell Reach still think so

This is a Aaron Greenburgish comment...

America =/= World

And not many casual gamers watch E3 press conferences....pre-orders should pick up soon.

Very true.  And as many want to point out that Reach's pre-orders will explode after ads start airing, I'm sure GT5 numbers will rise when Sony starts it GT5 ad campaign, as well.  It is there biggest franchise, so I doubt they're just going to lightly promote it.  Plus, you have to figure many may be  waiting for the inevitable PS3 bundle.  And does anyone know how large the pre-order numbers were for previous entries in the GT series?  Something tells me GT's sales probably don't depend as highly on pre-order numbers as other series may.

@ Hyruken

These charts do not include over a week from E3.  The last date was June 19th.  That was only 4days after Sony's conference.  Not saying pre-orders will explode next week, but I could do the same for Halo: Reach.  "It's been over a week since MS's conference (actually only 5 days) and Halo actually went down in pre-orders compared to last week."
