Actually, GT5 is performing on par with GT4 in the Americas (it only has to reach 2.8mill there to catch GT4 and it's already at 1.61mill (at a similar rate to GT4). It's only real blunder is Japan (which EMEAA will make up for and then some). ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

you are seeming to ignore this HUGE tidbit of info, gt4 launched in march...gt5 launched on black friday week!!!!! that is crazy that you wanna give gt5 the same credit- if it launched in march like gt4 it wouldnt even of sold half

Lol....why'd you quote a different poster with my response? O.o

Regardless, you're speaking out of sheer speculation (and because GT5 didn't launch outside of a holiday period, it will always be speculation).

Bottom line,  GT5 is performing like GT4 in the States. I can only imagine that the holiday helped to front-load the sales, but not add any incredible, extra amount (and the numbers don't reflect such an assumption).

again i quoted your post because it was the one that i wanted to quote, it was the one that was ignoring the facts- and are u kidding me, speculation ! you saying that a game that launches in march is going to sell the same as one that launches at the absolute height of the holiday season....and wait till the first holiday weeks for gt4 and the same week for gt5 and you will see a major difference
