I see about half of GT5 sales come from the "rest of the world". That is amazing, I don't think there's any other popular game like that. Is it because of excessive bundling in those territories or is there some other reason? I know the series is popular everywhere, but that is a lot.

It's wrong... VGC data is wrong.

The most sales come from Europe... I don't know why ioi swapped the numbers... before VGC showed 4+ million for Europe... I mean in UK only GT5 sold over 1 million... and it receive a award for over 500k in Germany... just that put GT5 at what VGC shows for Europe.

Europe real breakdown:

I'm not 100% sure about this, but does VGC put half the countries in Europe in "Rest of World"? I think VGC's Europe is just UK, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Denmark, and a couple others. Countries like Bosnia, Poland, Ukraine, Romaina and split countries like Russia, and Turkey are not included in Europe sales because statirsitcs are too hard to track in those regions.

I can understand Russia, since by land it's mostly part of asia, but a large portion of its population is still part of Europe.

Shows how silly VGC tracking is.
