Good sales for a good game. Will be interesting to see the Track article on monday. I think that will give us an indication of how acurate these numbers are as i think UK is  the biggest racing game market in Europe right?

Solid opening for GT5 then. But it will be interesting in the coming weeks to see how it drops off. That will give us a better idea of the type of legs we can see from it. GT4 sold almost 50% of it's entire sales in the first month (4.4m). And that was not even in a holiday period. This time round GT5 has the holiday period to sell to. If it hasen't reached at least 4.4m by jan 1st then i think it will struggle to get to the 10m mark. I think most peoples view of around 8m lifetime could be quite likely.

GT4 sold 10 million after 4 years. Just saying that it's the legs that will determine LTD sales.

Indeed, but it sold 4.4m in its first month, almost half of its lifetime sales. And GT4 was released on dec 28th 2004 so was 6 years ago, not 4.

gt5 could do 4.4 million the first month, with black friday and the holidays coming, if not more. but it wont be half its sales, probably 60%
