You have to sell slowly to be successful?

Weird.

I'd have though 8m sold at near full price in a few months was far better than bundling, new editions and buidget price editions over 2 or 3 years... but thats just me and my logical business like brain for you.

I never said anything about success. This is comparing sales of the 2 games, not the success. GT5 has sold extremely well over the course of 2011 and 2012. Its had tremendous legs, even when using VGChartz vastly undertracked numbers.

Im curious if Halo 4 can match GT5 for legs despite opening with far greater numbers.

Halo 3 seemed to match the legs of GT5 even with a higher opening.
