@Halo_Reach,

Not cool. You should have just left it at the first post.

 

"Opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one"

Instigating a flame war in one of the most densely PS3 populated threads is never a good idea.

Wouldn't it be the same if anyone would go into a thread mainly related to Wii or 360 related products and do the same thing?

That sort of attitude should be condemned generally, not when it only affects the side of the fence that some members are against. 

naw, its OK to do it in a kinect or halo thread...but NOT ok here at all, not one bit

Oh, please! I hate how people whine about VGC is biased. It's not. And if it is, then I kindly ask you to leave the forums so that you aren't exposed to all this bias.

here is a challange, go into any pro 360 thread and count all the haters, thne go into a pro ps3 thread and count defenders its the same number!

It's already outselling GT4 in aligned launches:

5 weeks worldwide:

GT5: 4,621,505
GT4: 4,591,879

GT5 is completely destroying GT4 in the past few weeks, despite the weaker first week. I think this happened because a lot of people were confused about the release date, and advertising wasn't able to kick in as early as it was supposed to. In EMEAA, GT5's 5 weeks has already outsold GT4's 10 weeks.

I predict that GT5 will go on to outsell GT4 by at least a million. The strong momentum of the game should continue into early 2011, and this is all happening despite a very weak Japanese market. Europe is loving this so much. I think the reason for all this happening is that GT4 was produced at the height of PS2 piracy, and that PS3 piracy is still virtually non-existent.

Anyway, to all the people who thought GT5 would sell "below Forza 3 or GT5 Prologue", "just 5 or 6 million", those people who said "PS3 userbase is too small", "It has bad reviews", "Forza is the new king of racing", "GT is on a decline", blah blah blah blah blah...

(Btw, Forza 3 sales, heavily bundled, over one year later: 4,405,464)

Eat that.

Gran Turismo 4:

Release Dates: 
 02/22/05 Sony Computer Entertainment 
 12/28/04 Sony Computer Entertainment 
 03/09/05 Sony Computer Entertainment

Gran Turismo 5:

Release Dates: 
 11/24/10 Sony Computer Entertainment 
 11/25/10 Sony Computer Entertainment 
 11/24/10 Sony Computer Entertainment

 

Well. I'd be seriously disappointed if 5 didn't outsell 4's ten weeks, because 4 released EARLY IN THE YEAR*! OF COURSE 5 WILL OUTSELL IT WEEK FOR WEEK!!! *Obviously ignoring Japan

 

But really, don't let me stop you from celebrating. Being in the holiday season in the first five weeks is a big accomplishment! /sarcasm

 

As for your Forza comment? Reported.

Reported for stating the sales of Forza for comparison? Wow...

I think he were reported for not saying that Forza 3 is the King of Racing as seens to be the truth in looney tunes.

And to the one above, if someone wants to celebrate let him... and with a 1/2 or 1/3 of install base sell more is something to celebrate...

If someone don't want to celebrate the achievement of something why enter in the thread??? just to say worthless thing??? didn't saw one flamebait even worth of taking, so desperates to do it that no one even bothered...

Learn how to troll first, don't be so dumb, open and without argument.

For a sales performance that is making a lot of haters silent, this thread sure is garnering a lot of replies.


And a lot of them hate the fact that GT5 didn't outsell MKWii or WiiSports but outsold FM3... so much of hate in this world...

I will demand to the moderators that a game can only be considerated a sucess after selling more than WiiSports (bundles included) so we can stop discussing these inconvinient sales topics.
