So according to VGC EMEAA figure and MC Japanese figure, this week PS3 already outsold XO about 160K. Is there anyone thinks XO can outsold  PS3 in America more than 160K to be 2nd place WW? I think the chance is too small.

Xbox might be > 600K in Americas

Ps3 <400K for sure.



GT5 selling great and it boosted the PS3 by about 100k too!

KINECT is holding pretty steady whilst Halo Reach continues to sell way less then what Halo 3 did in the same time period.

Wii__Amazing sales should stay #1 in Others for the rest of 2010.

PS3__Great sales in Others but something is kind of laughable...

360__Good sales but lacking in comparison to PS3 and Wii.

What's laughable - didn't you say PS3 would be in 3rd place by now? I could have sworn that was you?

Yes, I predicted that PS3 would still be #3 in GT5 week Worldwide I never said anything about Others...Also, something is very laughable in my opinion!

What will happen if PS3 isn't in 3rd WW? Will "something still be laughable?

And what is so laughable? You keep saying it like it's some uber cool secret.

PS3 could end up #2 this week W.W and if it does I will admit that I was wrong and move on...same goes for if PS3 ends up as #2 W.W in Holiday #'s I will admit I should have never changed my prediction and again say that my prediction was wrong. After seeing Others #'s I still believe that 360 is going to outsell PS3 W.W due to PS3 not being very strong in America but like I said I could be wrong but we will see...

As for what is laughable...I will tell you the secret...Most PS3 fans on this site said that GT5 would be a monster system pusher...especially in Others...You following me so far? Ok, I will tell you the rest now...Some even said that it would be such a big push that it would leave the PS3 #1 in Others for the rest of 2010...some predicted it would cause such a bump that PS3 would be #1 this week W.W selling over 1 Million!

After seeing said massive push in its strongest region while GT5 week 1 sales are great and it did push a good amount of systems its no where near what MOST PS3 fans wanted.

TheSource also predicted 1 million for the week, not just PS3 fans. And yes, many did think it would push more systems this week than it did, myself included, but if it keeps pushing them throughout the holiday (with the included holiday push- making it flat or up YoY), it will have done what people thought it would (outside orf crossing the Wii - which some of us didn't think it would do the entire holiday).

I don't know exactly what most PS3 fans predicted for hardware in EMEAA this week, but my prediction was an additional 120K units. So, while it was off by 26k, it's still a great push (this is still not including Japan or the United States) and not too terribly overpredicted. And let's not try to downsize 94,000 consoles. That's still a large amount 9and this doesn't include the rest of what it might push throughout the holidays).

Lastly, I will admit that the Wii is doing better than I thought it would this holiday, but if PS3 is in 2nd this week, one could call your predictions laughable too, no?

My prediction has already been laughable for a while now Lol...remember I predicted that PS3 would come in a distant #3 for Holiday 2010...Wii is likely to make my prediction correct  as I expected Wii to be a lot higher than both the PS3 and 360 this Holiday...but 360 is making my prediction about it being way higher than PS3 this Holiday laughable. 

Also, I never said you specifically I just said that many people thought GT5 would massively push PS3 to potentially higher than Wii #'s which is laughable...

Are people just choosing to ignore my posts? As I've pointed out 2 times in this thread already, all current signs suggest that we're undertracking GT5 in EMEAA. You really shouldn't make any hard, unequivocal statements about the impact it might have had on PS3 hardware until we have more data.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=3787218

No offence to you or anything but to be honest I am getting very tired of hearing these kind of comments every single week Lol...Sales of anything I imagine are hard to track so games are no different. Its not going to be 100% accurate but its what we got! Wii could be overtracked and PS3 could be undertracked but who knows until the adjustments happen? People who make these comments and don't trust the sales I honestly don't understand why your on this site then...

Every week somebody and sometimes even many people say that the PS3 is undertracked which could be true but so could 360 and Wii...ever since the last big PS3 adjustments nobody will let it go and move on.

If you don't trust the #'s then why bother staying here or commenting in sales threads? GT5 did great this week and if it did lower than your expectations oh well but you shouldn't go around saying that PS3 or a game is undertracked every time sales don't go as you wanted it to...when Wii was #3 back in September/October was I happy? Not really but I didn't go around saying oh the Wii is undertracked!

You could be right and PS3 and GT5 could both be undertracked but for now these are the #'s we have and until a possible future adjustment happens I am sticking with them.

this is what ps3 did to x360 in emeaa land


Number are great but I don't think vgchartz has a clue what ps3 is doing in EMEAA. sure it had a boost but what are the real numbers? 20,000 off, 50,000 off, 100,000 off. we will see when shipments come in.

I find it hard how GT5 is going to sell nearly 6 fold in EMEAA in the end like people predict ...



Gran Turismo 4 did.

I don't care what GT4 did, stop holding onto to GT4 sales for dear life when predicting the future, suuuuch a narrow way of looking at it.


According to GT4, GT5 will sell 1 million week 2, a bet I shall win next week when it doesn't.

I don't believe I have ever 'held onto GT4 sales for dear life'. 

But this is such a ridiculous statement. Of course you should look at sales of previous games in the series. How else would you have any idea of how well it will sell? 

I doubt GT5 will sell 1M next week because its sales look to be too low in Japan and NA. However, GT5 has outsold GT4 by 100K in its first week in EMEAA so it's not hard to imagine that it could hit 6M lifetime (I predicted 5.5M).



Wii is domed yet again
