Even with GT5's adjustment, it's still going to cross 4 million this week and will likely cross 4.5mill by year's end.


3M alone in EMEAA! :)

So why is the Halo series demeaned for how disproportionately it sells in NA but the same is not done with GT5 in EMEAA?

Not to say its right, but just find it ... interesting ...


Because that's a kind of silly claim to make about Gran Turismo as a series. Both GT2 and GT3 sold more in Americas than in EMEAA. The Halo game that saw the lowest percentage sales in Americas (out of the total) is Halo 3 with 72%. For a comparison, GT5:P (the GT game that so far has the highest percentage sales in EMEAA) sold 55% in that region. I very much doubt that the ratio between EMEAA and the world for GT5 is going to be much different from that.

There's also the matter of  EMEAA being many countries with vastly different cultues, whereas Americas is pretty much ~ 90% USA.

(Not that I agree with the demeaning).
