To clear some things up, specific shops did GT5 bundle deals, but there was no official universal bundle. Huaxiong90 - there is no official bundle in the US for GT5, just to clear that up.


There was nothing announced by Sony, that's true. Still Amazon, Target and Gamestop did bundles GT5 bundles for the U.S.  Not sure if Best Buy or Walmart did the bundles. Anyways, the bundles were readily available in all regions at launch time.

No one has definitive numbers on how many bundles sold  -vs- how many individual games sold. It's clear that most individual units probably sold by the sales of the PS3 over the last 3 weeks. I don't think GT5 pushed a whole lot of PS3's.

It pushed enough PS3s to keep it in good standing though. It's down a bit YoY, but would have done noticeably worse without GT5.

In Europe and Japan maybe, yes, but definitely not so much in the U.S. The Move probably pushed more PS3 then GT5 in America. You'll notice, even now, the strongest sales that are staying high is in Europe. GT5 sales are dying out everywhere else. It still did better then I thought it would.
