5.5M in europe is way too MUCH! Not even Cod MW2 has that so no other game will have...

in Americas may be at 2M.

I Believe 2.1M in americas , 3.1M EMEAA and 1.5M in Japan for a total of 6.8M WW.

Ps2 : 150M Consoles

Ps3 : By GT5 Launch : 38.6 -

GT3 at launch = less ps2 console sold than what PS3 has now.

GT3 life time = nearly 15m

you want more?

GOD OF WAR 1-2 = ps2 install base over 100m release

GOD of war 3 = ps3 install base 36m at release

still GOW3 sales > gow 1 and 2.

 

KEEP TRYING tho.

Racing Sims years ago were much more popular... If FIFA doesnt sell more than 3M in EU it wont be GT.

what are you on about?

I just proved your userbase theory wrong.

here's another example MGS4 > MGS3 with MGS3 launching in a console with over 100m userbase while MGS4 launched at what? ps3 24m userbase.

YOUR USERBASE ARGUMENT IS VOID.

Compare GT5 Prologue sales in Japan to GT4 Prologue sales in Japan (EMEAA figures should be ignored because Prologue came out a month before the game did in EMEAA). With 2 years to sell GT5P, instead of 1 year GT4P had, GT5P still undersold GT4P by 220k. GT4P outsold GT5P by 38.6% in half the time.

GT3 also was bundled heavily in Americas, all other GT's did not sell that well in Americas. GT5 Pre-orders indicate the same trend all past GT games have had. So if GT5 manages to somehow do as well as all past GT's, it will only get 10 million at best, but with weak attention in Japan, and weak Pre-orders in Americas, I doubt it will do that well.

So I think GT5 will sell 8.5 million, which is stll damn good for a PS3 exclusive, and very reasonable.


OK.......?

Compare GT5P to GT4p?

GT5P = 5m sold ON A CONSOLE WITH 37m userbase

GT4P = 1.3m ON A CONSOLE WITH OVER 100m userbase.

thx for further proving my point.

GT games never sold well in NA? is that why GT4 sold nearly 3m in NA while FIRST WEEK sales is LOWER than GOD OF WAR 3 in NA?

And 10m at best? that fine with me since that will make 90% of the ppl in this forum EAT CROW.
