If you look at the data, current 2nd and 3rd are very close, compared to other couples of consecutive rankings, so GT5 ending up either 4th or 2nd is a lot more likely: this because it could reach 4th place with its forces and a normal rate of bundling but still be very far away from 3rd and not worth additional efforts to sell more than its natural possibilities, but should it reach 3rd place, 2nd would be much closer, so it could be worth for Sony and PD to pump sales up with special and/or budget editions and heavier bundling.
Anyway, at this point 4th place should be quite easy to reach, but we'll have to wait and see how better than this it can do.
