| Frieza said: "GT5 is just as big as MW2" LOL, dont be stupid of course it isnt. On youtube MW2's trailer got 8.6 million views, GT5's got 1.6 million views. Theres over 100 MW2 videos that have 1 million views, GT5 has 4. According to google in 2010 for every person who searchs for "Gran Turismo 5" 12 people search for "Modern Warfare 2" MW2 has sold 20.6 million copies more than any GT game by a considerable amount, GT3 which was heavily bundled. It sold 8.2 million week one, thats more than GT5 will sell lifetime, the game wont open to a quarter of that amount. GT5 is about a month away and nobodies talking about it, and you think thats as big as a game that became a worldwide craze? dont be silly, why would you even say something that idiotic? |
Are you for real? GT5 could end up selling more than MW2 on the PS3 (which is probably what was implied, I don't think anyone thinks GT5 could move 20-25 million (counting PC sales) lifetime). It won't sell 8.2 million lifetime? How do you know? Let me guess; people would rather play FPS games because their habits have magically changed and they no longer like racing sims, they would rather play Need for Speed or they already own Forza 3. Or the market has moved on or the delays have made all the fans lose interest. Let's play bingo!
Nobody is talking about it, huh? I haven't seen such media buzz since GTA IV and Halo 3 myself, I don't know which internet you're connected to. The notion that it won't sell more than 2 million first week is also ludicrous, pre-orders alone will likely exceed half that number and GT is not a typical pre-order title either. EMEAA alone will sell 1.5 million week one is my guess, I could be wrong. I'm sure as hell that it will easily move way more than 2 million week one worldwide though(it is also huge in Japan and quite popular in the Americas).
