I think it's fair to assume that GT6's sales would be higher if it had been a cross gen release. I also think that even GT6's last gen sales (PS3) could've been better if PS3 owners had the possibility to buy and play the game on PS3 at launch and then pay $10 for a next gen upgrade and have all progress transferred when they finally decide to buy a PS4.

1: But I could also argue it would have sold worse on PS3 had there been a crossplat option.

2: Many would have bought it for PS4 and ignored it on PS3.

1: If it was annouced that buyers would have the option to get a PS4 version of GT6 for $10 and all progress would carry over from PS3, I definitely think more PS3 owners would've bought the game to play it at launch and then take advantage of the upgrade deal when they were in possession of a PS4.

2: I agree. Gran Turismo 6 was held back by being last gen only. Many would've bought it for PS4. The game would probably be at 8+ mill at the moment.
