Madskillz, I assume you are talking US only?

Because FFX and DQVIII killed MS/Nintendo in Japan and GT3 killed them both in Europe.

 Actually, that's the totals for worldwide, right off vgchartz. The other series don't even come close.

Um, Check GT3 sales, not only did it sell more then GTA3 in Europe, it also released first.

GTA delivered the US but Gran Turismo 3 done the most in Europe and delivered the market in Europe to Sony.

And Japan it was DQVIII and FFX

According to this link, GT3 sold 14.87M and GT4 sold 8.79M copies. But for a series overall, GTA still rules worldwide in sales, as a series - and has the top PS2 spot anyhow.

Of course GTA does but that was never the point.

The point was you claimed that GTA delivered the PS2 over the Xbox when that is bullcrap. Europe was always going to be Sony domiinated, even without GTA and so was Japan. So the Xbox would have been killed by the PS2 in either scenario.

 

 

Actually, nevermind. I read your inital post wrong. My apologies.
