What are the signs exactly? That GT5 is selling at a lower rate than GT4 (even though launch periods aren't being accounted for - GT5 is obviously more frontloaded and STILL sells 40k plus weekly). GT5 doesn't have to outsell GT4, but it should be able to pass 10 million. No it's not a fact, it's a prediction, you predict otherwise, but neither side is in the wrong for doing so. |
Well you probably analyse GT5 more then me because anytime I say anything Negative about this game in particular you seem to be on me. However, didn't you notice that before the holidays ended, GT5 was selling about the same, if not a little better then GT4. Then after the holidays the ratio dropped significantly? Why aren't GT5 weekly sales remotly close to GT4's anymore now that the holidays are over? Holidays ended 5 weeks after GT5 launched, sales then halved the next two weeks, and then lowered much quicker then GT4. Week 7/8 were the last weeks GT5 sales were reasonably close to GT4's and ver since then the ratio has been dropping?
They are still stong, a lot of haters predicte 6 million, and I'm sure a lot of your comments entitled "GT5' success is making haters eat crow" are aimed towards them. However you know I predict a far more reasonable 8.5-9.4 million, and you know I base my opinion on VGC sales data directly. You may disagree with me, but your 100% right in stating that neither of us are wrong at this time.
I'm only presenting my side of the arguement, and I do predict strong sales for GT5. Why does this game have to cross 10 million? Most signs point to this game not breaking 10 million, but 9 million is still good. Why is 10 million some magical number loyal PS3 followers want GT5 to cross?
I say these comments about Halo Reach about as often as well, why don't people call me on those, why is GT5 so much touchier of a subject?
