GT5 is a beast !!!

I still think GT5 has a shot for 3 Million FW. These sales only include one day in Japan. Two days in America without Black Friday. So GT5 could get a boost of 150,000 - 250,000. And it's just a monster in EMEAA.

Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

Forgive me if I'm wrong as I don't live in the US but Thursday was Thanksgiving right? Are the shops normally open that day? I assumed they closed. My point being that are these numbers not 2 days EMEAA and 1 day US/Japan or have I got that wrong?

You're correct, Thursday was Thanksgiving and the only stores open were gas stations and a grocery store (which closed at 3pm.), in my area. Not sure if it's different for the bigger cities in the States (New York City has a bigger population than my entire state heh), though.

Hope it crosses 2.5M, I think that even 3M is possible, I'm sure VGC will some sales in EMEAA. :p Go GT5 Go!!

This is surprising since the GT franchise is dead, this game had no buzz, everyone has started preferring shooters, NFS steals remaining sales and this game has a truly pitiful metascore.

Imagine that...

Looking at some of the posts in here, GT really threatens the heart of some!

Wonder if this would be a good place to use my bookmark ammo, or should I wait till we get first week numbers and then really go into fps mode and blast away?!?!?!

Don't go into FPS mode! You'll start hating racing games!

people who said this would outsell halo Reach owe us an apology

people stopped saying that 6 months ago. other then that gt is about legs so you could say it has a chance, but if you look at ps3 sales and the fact that this gen is coming to a close it has no chance.

Being in 3rd place never felt so good

We knew GT5 was going to sell well at launch, but those expecting Halo and Call of Duty numbers are going to be very disappointed.

Not many were expecting a COD / Halo like launch. The average on the official GT5 sales prediction thread is in the 2.5 - 2.6ish range.

Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

True. Guess I'll just bring my flock of crows instead.

Whoa, flight sims are a totally different story. Let's not go there....

The people who said that were most likely referring to the lifetime sales.
