Good, good. Although I am sure a lot of this is because of it's different editions.

Yes,because people buy the same game twice knowing that they could get the DLC cheaper off the PSN store instead of having to cash out $40 for another updated version.

Great Logic.


i think his point is that people who weren't enticed to buy the game originally may be persuaded to do so with a lower price and additional content

 

ot well deserved sales for a game that's rapidly becoming one of my favourites

Fixed numbers...

http://67.227.255.239/forum/showpost.php?p=42451275&postcount=12290

GT4 shipped 160k this year
GT5:P shipped 10k this year
GT PSP shipped 250k this year
GT5 shipped 1,760  this year

thanks. those are some good numbers.



@ OP, GT PSP is the lowest scoring Gran Turismo game, with 74. A whole 10 points below GT5.



GT5 fought back the doom,should keep up good numbers with the bundles going on

Undertracked here then by at least several hundred thousand

OHHHHHHHHH GOD!!! My Prediction....

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=125037

I Believe Sony Will Ship 10 Million Copies Of GT5 Before 2 Years. And You?

Just 800k to reach 10 million... and there are more 3 weeks to 2 years birthday.

So with the huges sales in this 3 weeks I can say I missed my prediction by 600-700k.

Pretty AMAZING predicition made in Feb 2011. 


So based on what we knew at the time of your prediction (shipments) and where we are now and your own miss prediction of 600k to 700k, you were over by about 20% 

thats an amazing prediction?  Now I know why you use amazing so often... You have a low amazing threshold. 

Don't listen to him ethomaz, he doesnt mean it.... its just... you know....his "whispers" tiiimmee of the monnnnthh



"Does that mean that VGC numbers are wrong?"

Of course they are they're always wrong.

Nope. I didn't say that. 

you think it's undertracked 300k, it shipped 9.2 million end of september and vgc says it sold 7.9 million end of september so 1 million anywhere else. sry for that calculation if i forgot something.
