ethomaz did this on the EMEAA Up chart, and since Gran Turismo 5 is 15 weeks old, and worldwide sales are largly debated, I thought it would be smart to do this for worldwide figures. So here are a bunch of current gen games, and their 15 week figures, lets see how GT5 did with it's most recent adjustment. Since GT5 did sell pretty low compared to a lot of worldwide debuts, I will make the list include everything above 5 million sales

  • New Super Mario Bros Wii - 12,590k
  • CoD: Black Ops (360) - 11,668k
  • Pokemon Diamond/Pearl - 10,052k
  • CoD: Modern Warfare 2 (360) - 9,754k
  • Wii Fit Plus - 9,497k
  • CoD: Black Ops (PS3) - 9,360k
  • Kinect Adventures! - 8,772k
  • Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver - 7,643k
  • Halo: Reach - 7,397k
  • CoD: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3) - 7,019k
  • Halo 3 - 6,959k
  • Mario Kart Wii - 6,527k
  • GT5 - 6,013k
  • Wii Sports Resorts - 5,959k
  • Wii Fit - 5,750k
  • Just Dance 2 - 5,538k
  • New Super Mario Bros. DS - 5,433k
  • Pokemon Platnium - 5,200k
  • Am I missing anything? Not bad for GT5, behind MW2, but the game will have better legs. By comparision GT4 only sold 5,478k by this point. However GT5 weekly sales are 60% GT4's and the weeks it sold better to get this ratio were holiday weeks, where sales are inflated (GT4 was launched in February for US, March for EMEAA, and the very end of December in Japan.

    No, they aren't....

    Was recently adjusted lay off man. It's 79%, but likely to drop.

    You are forgetting one thing. When GT4 was out it had way more PS2 sold to consumers then what the PS3 has now. GT5's legs won't be the same as GT4. GT4 was also a lot more popular in the U.S. then GT5 is now. So it's legs will rely mostly on EMEA sales. Japan GT5 sales are dismal right now.
