People are expecting to much from GT5, it will raise hardware in japan thats for sure, but in America it will have little impact on hardware, and in Europe it will raise hardware a little but not much, the holiday shopping spree and an hypothetical price cut would spur sales allot more the the launch of a single game

People should realize by now that, a single game this far in to the generation has little effect on hardware sales, price cuts and catalog of games are much more important than a single game

However GT5 happens to be the sequel to the top selling exclusive of last generation (Gran Turismo 3 - 15 Million)


Racing games are not as popular today as they were back then. There are also many more competitors already out on the market today. Gran Turismo used to be the only game of it's quality available. Now there are others to choose from. There's Forza and Shift and Dirt, to just name a few. The market is split and people have gotten their driving sim itch scratched already. GT5 will be huge, buy I don't think it can beat GT3 or even GT4.
