GT5 will push PS3 near 1 million WW (probably over).

Never. Ever.

Max 550k for GT5 launch week.


On the numbers we're getting two weeks from now when the PS3 is probably set for 1 400k week this (last) week? I think it will push more than 550k worldwide but certainly not 1 million. 600-700k is my guess. Real holiday boost, yoy growth, Move and one of the biggest titles this entire generation, platform exclusive. Also, Black Friday launch week in Americas will help drive even more hardware and software.


Source thinks 1.2 million is possible on GT5 launch week.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Last year PS3 sold 778k WW with no big release... Black Friday plus GT5 = 1m PS3.

4 consoles/handheld above 200k this week O=. PS3 sales are ridiculous. If sony has some nice bundles for black friday like last year, along with gt5, no doubt it could reach 1mil ww. I honestly thought the wii would own the holidays again, but its getting further and further in and the wii has yet to get 1 week as the number 1 console.

Last year was shortly after the slim and pricecut.

 

But I expect  850-900k

Dear God Black Ops is a serious beast!  The PS3 version has a small chance of matching Halo Reach's opening week.

Can anyone tell me why EMEAA like COD so much better than Halo?

I love holiday numbers BTW!

Simply put, COD is the bigger franchise now.

COD always was a bigger franchise than Halo.

But I like Halo more.

Nice, PS3 held off the Kinect launch in EMEAA.



No doubt that ps3 it is being over tracked now, they have no clue what the numbers are. I just don't think vgchartz knows the real numbers of ps3 in EMEAA.  Plus last week numbers where bumped up for kinect adventures.

We will see when shipped numbers come in. Maybe they are making up for screw ups.

I'm willing to bet they are. VGCHARTZ numbers after the fix this last month are not to be trusted in EMEAA.

Yeah shipped-sold gap for PS3 is like 2m... for 360 less than 1m... for Wii near 1.5m... and PS3 was overtracked... no doubt.
