Many games have prooven that userbase doesn't count that much.

True but many have also proven the opposite. I'd even say that those that have proven userbase doesn't count are more the exception than the rule.

For example, despite many considering the CoD games have decreased in quality since 4, each yearly iteration (besides WaW)  has ended up opening larger and selling more in the long run. This is most likely due to the expanding userbase more than anything else.

And seeing as GT5 is the PS3's flagship title to this point, it'll experience long stream of market success similar to what Uncharted 2, God of War 3 and LBP have. And those didn't open as well as GT5 has.

The COD franchise is selling so well because of increasing popularity,rather than expanding userbase.In my opinion at least.
