Still doesn't make sense. PS3 is up in Americas 30k yoy.

GT5 obviously hasn't been as impactful in Americas as much as the price cut/slim.

I don't see it beating last Dec's NPD either, at this rate it'll surpass it by a few 100'k

GT5 was never suppose to have the impact you speak of in America. I am agreeing with you. I think the PS3 is having its best holidays in Europe while down in US, but Americas is a different story. Funny thing, GT5 is or about to finish first shipment in both Japan and NA, do people still believe there is so many left in Europe?

To me

Europe = PS3 way up

US= DOWN

NA= close

Japan = down

I'm not pointing out the bold for the sake of it, I'm saying what is the reason PS3 is UP 30k YoY in Americas? GT5 vs Price cut/Slim?


I think  the supply issue the 360 is having is helping the PS3. It's really hard to get a 360 where I live, but I can find a PS3 easily. I actually think the 360 is overtrack, not because of sales, because MS did not expect such demand. I am actually getting emails from GAMESTOP to tell how they have 360 on stock now, hurry up.

So this week:

GT5 over 4 million

Halo Reach over 7 million

Forza 3 over 4 million

Michael Jackson The Experience over 1 million


To bad they are giving away Forza 3 for free, so its 4 million means squat. That is a highly bundled game. And they don't make money for that. Microsoft knows they only sold a couple million and are okay with that. This boosts sales, so they can say it's as popular as GT5, and also they can inflate sales making you think it's more popular. Bundled games suck. They cannot even give away Forza 3 to keep pace with GT5. Sad.

Your a really sad sad person.  You do realize that the GT series has been bundled to hell and back right?  But guess what, who gives a shit.  It pads some numbers and I am happy it does so, for both games.  Because they both rock.

Sorry for you GT5! Forza in his 60th week make's your debut nothing important...


Well it's had more time on the market then GT5. Besides, GT5 murders Forza in EMEAA and Japan. Comparing Forza to this is like comparing Halo to Killzone.

no because forza 3 will get 70% of gt5 sales killzone 2 only gets about 20% of halo sales. nice try tho

I was comparing brand name.

Some of it can be credited because of the $100 Wal - Mart gift card. That's essentially like a $ 199.99 PS3.

LOL. It's funny because those were the first two games I looked at so I could post how huge they were.
