I've been reading alot of posts saying Reach HW boost will own next week, bye bye Wii being on top and PS3 is doomed even some gifs of it too. I've also made a few GT5 threads here on VGChartz all with many posts saying that we shouldnt expect alot from GT5. I believe though that Reach will cause a massive spike for 360s HW but it won't be as massive as PS3's spike when GT5 releases. So will 360 HW on Reach release be greater than PS3 HW on GT5 week? Post what you think

Well mathmatically, there are more 360 console owners out there, so percentage wise PS3 has an advantage if you say "Who get the bigger boost percentage-wise" ....
If you say who gets a bigger boost in actual console numbers then its 360.. Halo Reach doubled 360 console sales in UK alone from 50k's to near 100k !! So even though 360 had a 100% boost in the UK week one for Halo Reach, they won't in the USA because 360 is TEN MILLION CONSLES AHEAD of PS3 already.. so the percentage in the USA will be lower, but the actual consoles pushed by Halo Reach will be higher then GT5 ..
Im anxious to see final results, but Im WAGERING GT5 will do millions less then Reach ( for a whole weeks sale ).. COD MW2 being #1 on PS3 and 360 has already shown that FPS's are taking over and thats what young people want.. the original PS1 crowd is in their late 30's now.. its time for Sony to make games that push sales along the youngest ( Like MS is ) that will drive them to not only buy a console today, but the next Gen console..
