Why am I posting that? Because here in Brazil that does not happen often and the last launch party was the God of War III but nothing compared to what Sony Brazil intends now.

On December 11 real cars that are present in Gran Turismo 5 will pass through the streets of Sao Paulo marking the arrival of the game here. The cars will go through key points such as streets and neighborhoods known to the end stopped at Bourbon Shopping Pompeia.

There at the official Sony Style store will have the opportunity to play Gran Turismo 5 3D in a cockpit. And who buy the game should have your copy autographed by former Formula 1 driver Luciano Burti.

So that's crazy to Brazil.

How Sony is spending advertising the game here? And how many copies they expect to sell?

It seems that the lack of piracy on the PS3 gave a BOOM in game market here in Brazil.

GO GO Brazil.

Well weather it sells bucket load or not I don't think VGC tracks brazil....or do they? cause if they do PS3 should be doing bigger numbers in america since it dominates brazil.

not sure tho.........

Im from Brazil too, but this event is not in my city :(

Yeah, i live in Brazil too and i never saw a thing like that before! Some says that GoW III sold 40k in its first month here, i hope that GT5 will do 40k week 1!

VGG make some adjustments in America after financial numbers released... so theses adjustments are to contemplate sales in countries like Brazil.

But VGC didn't track Brazil.

This is good for Sony, keep this us and you will own Europe, Asia and south America!

isnt the Middle East numbers higher then Nintendo and Microsoft for the PS3? 

thats what im saying, PS2 is undertracked as you all know but VGC doesn't adjust cause they dont have much data in south america which is where PS2 is being undertracked from(according to source).

dont we have any brazilian charts.?

Funny, I see all these parties and huge announcements from GT5 opening week, and apparently it sold 2.5 mil on a week. Not to say it's not good sales, the sales are amazing, but I mean it's not that much.

Sony didn't confirm or deny these number yet... they will release official report soon.
