However to be fair, Forza Motorsport 3 was only announced like 5 months before it released. Some of these GT pre-orders are probably years old. I bet you Forza weekly american weekly pre-orders from now on will match, if not surpass GT5 pre-orders. That said I expect GT5 to get 250-275k pre-orders, and have a 500k opening week in Americas, probably 1-1.2 million worldwide.

FAR too low for WW. 500,000 is feasible for Americas, although I personally think it'll do closer to 600,000, but have you forgotten about EU & Japan? 2.2-2.5 mill Week 1, at least.

Your right, I did underestimate EMEAA week one sales there. wrote that comment kind of late.

However I think your overestimating GT5. GT4 sold 770k in Americas week 1 and 2.5 million worldwide. I think GT5 will probably be closer to the 1.5-1.8 million week 1 opening, 2 million at best IMO. Don't see it doing better then 2 million, as I don't see week 1 sales being 4 times as large as Forza 3 week one sales (470k).

GT5 could easily outdo Forza 3 by that much, it's a much larger franchise. 2 million Week 1 at the least, bud. You'll see.

Forza 3 sold 3 million, and is still selling pretty strong. Most GT's sold 10 million lifetime, and IMO I think GT5 will sell worse then past GT's (but not that much worse). So it makes little sence to me for a game like GT5 to have 4 times week 1 sales, but at best 3 times lifetime sales.

I think 1.5-1.8 week 1 is reasonable, we just differ in opinion here.

oh, God Of War:Ghost Of Sparta in the top 30!

It's probably going to be the last PSP game in the top 30 ever again. PSP2 were waiting.

It might make little sense to you, doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. Regardless, I know how these debates turn out, so I'll leave it with your last sentence.

Okay... like I said we differ in opinion. I simply don't have as much faith in GT5 as you do.

Halo, Fable, and Forza are Microsoft franchises. Gears is Epic's.

Who cares it's 360 exclusive, and published by Microsoft.

That said, I didn't really like Fable 2, and I beat it. It seemed more like an adventure game to me, and even then fighting was just tapping the x-button for very generic swing attacks. I guess a lot of people just like the more casual atmosphere the story gives.

It's sad that you comment on every single GT5 post, and try to convince people that your opinion > theirs, and insult them when they disagree.

Where exactly was insulted? Quick stalking my posts.

Well it's just every single other post (GT5 related) is you, so it's hard avoiding them. Just standing up for the little guy.
