What a thourough argumentation...
1. GT3 and 4 didn't sell 15 and 10M day one, they did so throughout the life of the console which sold what? 140M now? Would you say the games are not good enough for New PS2 buyers to buy them?
yes they did not sell firat day but they did sell their total sales in the 2 years time
GT3 and GT4 aren't currently selling and even if they are they are minor and aren't tracked
so your argumentation itself is invalid
tone more thing you don't know what PS3 will go onto sell as PS3 has as many price cuts as PS2 left now
2. I said Diehard fans, cause thse guys that are suposed to buy a 150 € limited edition would surely pay the 30€ for the PSP version instead of DLing it.
yes but not all fans pay $150
everybody is jst expecting 100-200k max on that $150 bundle and PSP sales are already 1.95M so those fans you talk about already do have the game
one more thing jst because they are diehard fans doesn't mean they will buy a PSP as alot of GT fans buy the game for its visuals on a big screen and PSP isn't big screen
Especially since they probably bought their PSP in the first place for GTPSP that was a pre launch taunt video....
yeah many bought a PSP for GTPSP but we don't know how many
3. So, competition in this category is higher than it ever was console wise...
wat competition,yeah Forza and PGR are there but that isn't much competition
and if you are talking about general racers then NFS was a bigger competition then which it isn't now
Also the game was bundled with the PS3.
so????????
and it was a premium bundle
I said many people will not buy GT5 even though they got P, the ones I listed are part of them. Others will have succombed to competition and considering the amount of cars and tracks all these gamesalready have, the marginal gain of getting GT5 is very little for the non Diehard fans.
but why do you think casuals got the game.it can be that only minor amount of casuals got then game
it normally goes like this
hardcore buy the game,praise it
this makes news and word of mouth
and the casuals buy it
so it will be the same for GT5
