Except that, even GT5, "the Holy Grail app" for the PS3 should be doing better numbers in the Americas and Japan, proportionally like those in EMEAA and selling SKU's like there's no tomorrow. Instead it finds itself conformed to trying to salvage what little lead it has over an older generation console's (PS2) favourite sim-racer (GT4). Just look the rest of the hyped exclusives: they're 80% sequels, and mind you, given either the metacritic scores or sales data, 'tis not the season for sequels. SON¥ needs to drop the handhelds and invest in peoples' playrooms; specially those playrooms with potential PS3 gamers. Pronto!

Nah, that's just your narrow way of looking at the the situation. Lately, Gran Turismo has been a lopsided franchise in sales, with most of it's sales coming from EMEAA (very much like Halo and the Americas). GT5 is fine, with Japan being it's only issue (being made up for in EMEAA). As for sequels, show me another console pumping out new IPs in abundance this year. You also didn't answer my question regarding the Wii & 360.

The bottomline, the poster you quoted quoted someone talking about sales. GT5 isn't lacking those.

Well.......nvm.
