Shipped values are irrelevent, you should know that, whatever isn't sold is shipped back. Also GT4 only sold 10.61 million units, and shipped 10.85 million, so for GT5 to break 10 million sales, it would need to sell about 85% as well to break 10 million. It's stabilizing at 66% or so.
Also, you asked me to name game game which shipped 6.4 million in a month, but sold less then 10 million lifetime. Modern Warfare 2 for PS3. Also note, they both were released in the peak holiday sales period.
I only commented about Forza sales being impressive too, you first mentioned 10 million. I made no comparision in my initial post. Just noticed a comment about GT5, and I thought mentioning how Forza 3 is doing would be good.
Anyway I agree lets not go down this road.

You should really pay attention to Polyphony's site, GT4 shipped more than 10.85 million. Regardless, GT4 is irrelevant, not GT5's shipped figures. Nothing really left to debate though, you're not changing anyone's ,mind, as nobody is changing yours. Just let it go at this point. But looking at what GT5 is currently doing, it's already closing off much of the doubt it initially had.
And btw, MW2 on PS3 WILL cross 10 million in it's life, but you need to show me it's shipped figures before calling that.

Even if it crosses 10 million, it will just barely make it, and this is a bigger game then GT5.
Also GT5 still only shipped 6.4 million units as of right now too you know, those December shipments were intended to last a bit.

There's nothing at all to indicate that MW2 is a bigger game than GT5, because neither has finished selling, and the odds are in GT5's favor given there will probably not be another GT for quite sometime.
Just drop the debate for nowt. Come back when some time has passed.

Just do me a favor and say "In my opinion ___________." Only reason you hear from me a lot is because you present your opinion as facts. We have no clue when a PS4 will be released, so GT5's sales may be cut substantially if the PS4 platform replaces the PS3. Sure it won't happen in 2011, probably not in 2012 either, but at this rate, compared to GT4, there is no evidence that GT5's sales will reach 10 million before 2013.
So lets drop this then.
