It is the bestselling PS3 exclusive game and since nothing will come out to surpass it, people are really focused on how much GT5 can sell.


Are you forgetting AGENT. Judging by Rockstar's past works, the game should do something between 9 and 19 million. 

Higher than GT5 for sure


I doubt that Agent will sell that much it still has no firm release date.  I'm pretty sure it will be released too late in the PS3's life cycle (late 2012) to produce huge sales numbers.  I'm guessing that it will sell more then RDR but less then GTAIV so anywhere between 4-8 million copies but that's only if it gets better reviews than RDR.


lol no Agent can't sell as well as GT5. It must have great reviews. Come out in holdiay season and plenty of hype for it too get maybe 6-7 million. It won't near GT5 sales. With or without bundling.

Why so many people here care so much about GT5? Every chart released there are always people talking about "legs" and so on.

Get away if it, guys.

Jesus.

What's so special about this game? Is just another racing game.


Just an ordianary racing game. That prooved you have not played a single GT game. GT is the Call of Duty of it's franchise. 

But if you just talk about racing games in general that honor belongs to the Mario Kart series 80.81 million vs.61.49 million copies sold.

To put it simply, No.

To put it in more words, No it will not.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but in Australia, GT5 gets bundled plenty, and has been for ages.

LOL Mario Kart wouldn't be that much without all those bundles. Half of the series is sold from bundles

Yeah possibly, does it matter though? It wouldn't exactly signify anything of importance being ahead of Halo would it. Not if it had to be heavily bundled to get there.

It sold 6.4 million with pretty much no bundles. Isn't that any achivement already? Halo Reach is more bundleld than GT5 as of now so in that case Halo Reach already has a head start.

unfortunately i dont think this will ever happen regardless of the amount of bundles as a fan of sony's consoles it kinda hurts to say this but i dont think the lack of bundles is the problem with GT5s sales.  i believe in NA is where GT5 has had the least amount of bundling compared to the rest of the world, adding more bundles to parts other than NA would have little affect since i believe most people wanting to purchase it would have long time ago.  adding more bundles in NA would also have little effect b/c as most can see its sales in this region arent impressive, i believe this is mainly b/c of the product, the lack of american cars (compared to other racers coughs forza) is lacking which is a disappointment to gamers in NA and among a few other things which i wont go into here

for it to happen it would need bundling where the HW bundled with GT5 doesnt bump up the price much or even none, which i dont see happening

if we all had these types of feelings then we wouldnt be dead serious that KA would sell 20M LT and supporting them or having countdown timers of bundled products in are sigs, luckily we dont all have these feelings
