I get a kick out a lot of you folk.  Most of you that are saying there is no chance for 5 million Fable 3 sales have said that GT5 will sale a bajillion copies.  Double standards anyone?   

Since Peter M. says he is wanting to reach 5 million most of you think that is impossible.  5 million isn't such a big jump is it?  After digital distribution I would think that Fable 2 has sold close to 4 million copies.  So were only really looking at an extra 1 million to 1.5 million sales.  How is that such a difficult feat if the game is better than Fable 2?  

I would laugh so hard if it does indeed sell 5 million and GT5 only sells a little more.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Don't even compare Fable to GT in sales comparisons

GT5 is coming of a game that sold 11 Million...and before that a game that sold 15 Million

Fable 3 is coming of a game that sold 4 Million.....and before that 3 Million.

The difference being that fable 3 WILL almost certainly outsell fable 2 and fable, but GT5 will almost certainly NOT outsell its recent iterations.

Thats not the point I was making

He needs to understand the reason people think GT5 is going to sell 10 Million plus

People aren't pulling out huge GT5 sales prediction from twiddling their thumbs, no there is a legit reason people think it will sell bajillions.
