GT6 has absolutely no chance at outselling Halo 4.
Halo is just getting bigger whilst Gran Turismo has been on a decline since GT3, even that game was only really big because it was MASSIVELY bundled in North America. GT5 shows a massive decline since it's predecessor, it will be lucky to reach 9 million now and it is only going to decline further unless Sony start mass bundling the series again... and make sure the game's at an acceptable standard before it releases and doesn't take more than 3 years to make.
Also Halo: Reach is probably really close to Halo 3 if you include its digital sales. Remember that Xbox 360 bundle with Fable 3 and a digital copy of Halo: Reach last year? Fable 3 sold roughly 1.4 million due to that bundle which means that bundle has pushed Halo: Reach to about 10.6 million. Then if you consider everyone who bought Halo: Reach digitally outside of the bundle the game must have sold at least 11-11.5 million copies to date making it easily on track to pass Halo 3. |
There are like what? 5 Halo games on Xbox 360? Yearly releases help keep franchises in the public eye.
Gran Turismo doesn't have that luxury. Only Prologue and GT5. A GT6 is guaranteed to outsell V. With the bigger PS3 install base and lower cost entry point for PS3.
There is something that Gran Turismo has over Halo, it is still king of its genre.(sorry Forza).

GT is about legs. GT6 won't have the chance to beat GT5 on PS3.Earliest release would be Q3 2013, so add another year of GT5 sales to it's current sales. PS4 would cut GT6's legs short.
