| CGI-Quality said: In the US, it will need 2.5mill. Quote that. Japan's numbers are not as good as they should be, no two ways about it. It's kept up with GT4 in the US thus far, and the numbers aren't bad. In fact, in relation to Japan's numbers, they are in much better shape. In EMEAA, it will do a tad more than GT4, because unlike GT5, GT4 launched at a time when the franchise was still growing there, but things were being shuffled towards the PS3 launch. Looking at GT4's 6.5mill, 7 mill for GT5 doesn't seem too high at all, and again is all it will need to reach the 10 million barrier, next to the US number of 2.5 mill. |
You make a good point about EMEAA, i still think 3mil is possible for the US, maybe even more than that.
either way i was very concerned because of the reviews that were coming out around GT5's release, but it seems those wont be a problem now.
either way, i think GT6 will come out later in this gen, and it will do more than GT5 because Yamuchi and his crew will no doubt make the game a lot better with respect to what was criticised in those reviews. and of course PS3 userbased will be higer.
but at the moment 2 months in, if it keeps up sales momentium, i have faith it will do 10mil.
