LOL @ Gran Turismo 6 at #50 on the PS3! That game has climbed a lot recently.


I hope it keeps climbling a lot. It's a great game!


yeah it deserves it. hopefully polyphony give us some solid sales numbers later this year or when GT7 or the prologue release. it sure has had great legs despite releasing at the worst time possible. 


I don't know about the numbers, but it won't reach the normal GT 10M-ish numbers.
They should do something else to promote the game, they still keep adding stuff to the game and making it better, and their Vision cars project with real brands is just great. 5 to 6M would let me happy already.

VGC (almost certainly) have GT at least 1 mill undertracked, due to their track record (I mean why on earth would you adjust down GT5 to below the march 2013 shipment numbers, are you really trying to tell me that 200k copies of GT5 have been sitting on shelves for 18ths? especially when GT6 had been out for almost half of those months, coupled with GT5:P and GTPSP both being 1 mill undertracked...), and more importantly this ->http://www.gtplanet.net/2-5-million-people-downloaded-aston-martins-vision-gt-car-in-gran-turismo-6/ Where at this point in time, VGC only has it at ~2.8m. So VGC is trying to say that 90% of the userbase for the game is active, you'd be lucky to have 50% of you're install base active after 9 months after release. 

I thing GT6 is at about 6.5mill sold as of now, which is kind of damning for VGC, but oh well, the staff clearly struggle immensely to track the games, especailly as they're strong in VGC's weakest areas. One thing is for certain, in a few years or whenever PD decide to update their sale figures (most likely in line with GT7's release) there SHOULD be multimillion unit adjustments to the franchise overall, as it's a mess.

Rumour has it new updated numbers coming soon
