Well if you don't recognize the whole concept of the first iteration, then I don't see why I should continue this discussion with you. If you want to talk about MGS4 performance then the data shows it perfomed decently, not too bad, not too good, compared to MGS2.

As for GT5, if we just put the America bundles aside we can easily see that it did horrible in Japan, poor in America and decent in EMEAA, considering that GT4 has not been released during Christmas time like GT5. So overall GT5 didnt do so well. Yeah Christmas time...another factor that fans will completely ignore just to prove their point. But since you don't recognize the first iteration concept I suppose you won't either recognize that games generally sells way more during that time.

So in the end you can continue with your spinning (including Prologue sales to GT5 lol come on!) or just try to analyze the full thing without any bias.

Enjoy!

No I don't recognize the concept for the first iteration thing. I accept that. I do understand the that games get a boost during holidays and GT 4 wasn't released during a holiday season.

But that's just an advantage for GT 5. Eventually GT 5 is going to have another holiday season as well this year, and the bundling etc will obviously give it a boost.
