This isn't a prediction, but I do wonder whether Grand Theft Auto could see (potentially) dramatically lower sales in this generation ...
Grand Theft Auto sold very well in the previous generation in part because it was unique in the market and it received a lot of (negative) press due to the "Mature" content; much like Mortal Kombat many people bought the game (in part) because it had such a 'bad' reputation.
Grand Theft Auto is no longer that unique being that (pretty much) every major publisher has copied the series, and it will (probably) no longer get as much negative press because it isn't a new story anymore. When you add to this that it is being released on systems which are more expensive than the PS2 was I wonder if there will be a dramatic drop in sales.
