| TheSource said: He is baiting you guys, but on the other hand I doubt most of you guys had expected GT5 to sell 1.6m in the USA and Japan by the end of 2010. Its definitely in decline from previous entries in those countries. I can remember saying back in October when Brett and I did the holiday outlook that it would be overshadowed by Kinect / DKC Returns and other titles, and that does appear to have happened in the USA (and Japan to a lesser extent). |
I think there 2 things that made GT5 do so poorly.
1. High Expectations
2. Sony messing up the launch. It was almost a stealth launch.
Just want to play good games
