http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=3766687  (If GT5 is lucky, it will outsell Prologue)

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=3759684  (GT5 will do 3.9mill lifetime, 1.24 mill Week 1)

There's more where they came from. And someone said I, moi, have to something to be disapponted with? If those aren't the most "lol-worthy" posts, I don't know what is!


At last.,. the mask slips. he shows his true colours. 

You ACTUALLY bookmark lots of posts?  you ACTUALLY do that?   lol. 

Got any bookmarked posts of lol-worthy wii and 360 predictions?

lol of course he hasn't.

Just ignore him Kow, we've made fair and reasonable posts here but he's lashing out at us for some reason, no idea why because GT5 and PS3 sales are pretty damn good ...

And why the Wii isn't undertracked? Is it because it is in first?



Above: still the best game of the year.

I don't know why anyone thinks PS3 is undertracked - 330k is an excellent figure for this time of year in EMEEA. The only reason Wii is slightly ahead of PS3 in the region is because there was a new Mario Kart Wii Sports bundle this week in addition to the previous bundles, seasonality, big games, evergreens, etc all pushing Wii.

What do you mean everytime? Saying "all games push HW" ... you only have to say it once to mean it .. unless you don't mean it anymore.


As entertaining as this back and forth is, could you answer my question on why GT5 can't hit a million second week when GT4 did it and GT5 has the holiday at its back?

Sure.

Different buying trends, different console, different users, past trends THIS gen (not last gen), fact it had 4 days this week rather than the 2 it would normaly have had. We'll just see aye.

More like :

The reviews are lower.

The competition is higher.

The long wait did some damage.

But your points are good too though.

GT4 has an 89 meta.  GT5 has 85 with scores still coming in.  Hardly a gap, not to mention that people largely don't give a crap about reviews.  The long wait only did damage for critics, a.k.a. the irrelevant people.  The only decent point is the competition, and the Wii seems to be handling it's competition pretty well.

I think, once again, we should wait and see instead of making impulsive claims and past trends.

look at just dance 1 numbers

Yeah,but what opponent did just dance have?Exactly,none.When people look at GT5's score,they will see that NFS:HP and Forza 3 have higher reviews,and what will they do,in the most probable case?Choose them over GT5.

That may not make a big difference,but it still has a small impact.

Just because of course, NFS:HS and Forza 3 is much better and selled much more than let's say GT5P???

owww wait, that didn't happened... even tought reviews put GT5P lower then both by a large margin

And next week there is the Wii Fit bundle...

Too bad Wii is still down 70K from last year :(

No offense, but I think people will completely believe PS3 isn't undertracked when it doesn't get undertracked for a while.  The numbers may be spot on, but after that massive adjustment, people are fairly skeptical.
