This generation we have seen the following:

DMC4 outsold DMC3 (multiplat but I believe the PS3 version alone would have too had it been exclusive)

MGS4 outsold MGS3

GOW3 outsold GOW2

FF13 outsold FF12 (multiplat but the PS3 version alone did 4.3 Million and by the time it ends selling will be at 5 Million....so had it been exclusive the PS3 version alone would have done more)

This.

GT5 will be the best selling Gran Turismo after end of PS3 gen.

Really?

That would require massive Motorstorm level bundling in NA like GT3 got (thats why GT3's NA sales are so bloated compared to the others).

It will get over 10 million with ease .

Will it fail to outsell the best selling GT (GT3)? Yes. I think it will do fine though, probably in the 7-8 million range. I still have a feeling that 10 million will be a milestone too hard to reach for this title. Won't exactly detract from the enjoyment from my copy though...

no way it will sell one copy you hear me  ONE COPY!

and that copy will be the Ultimate edition WHY because that's my pre order

I delayed the game to stop people buying it but that hasn't slowed it down so now I 'm destroying the 7 million first issue games and will deal with any other attempts to manafacture more later.

Signed  can you lend me a steering wheel

I believe. 15M is possible.

Yes yes play your little prologue,  i had to let them have a little bit of cash to build MY "yes my game"

although with 50 plus million sales why they needed it is beyond me , maybe you dipped into it for your edumacation

fund.

im thinking 7-9 million numbers. if it released last yeat it could have had a chance of getting to 9 million, but all of the delays hurt it.

another bad decision by sony.

Do you have any proof on that?
Or is that just a wild guess?

 Look at it this way, now GT5 has less time before a PS4 is released. I'm thinking 8-9 million tops. This game is coming upon the last remaining time of the consoles' lifetimes and in the age of shooters. In either case, there's as much proof as this game having legs as there is of the contrary. 

A PS4 release is at the very least, 2 years away. Also, "the age of shooters" is irrelevant, because if it weren't, previous PlayStation franchises with iterations this gen would have been heavily affected. Well, God of War & Metal Gear Solid had no problems, I doubt Sony's biggest franchise will have problems. It will do between 10 & 11 million, but not outsell GT3.

This is my prediction also.  Around 11 million.

 

I see this is being underestimated by the same few that happened with many other PS3 games.  We saw how that turned out from before.  A glorified Demo sold 5 million - I think GT5 will be able to do more.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
