This will be the best selling PS3 game except for recent CoD's (MW3, BO and I guess BO2). It will surpass GTAIV and MW2 soon.

It even has an outside chance of beating some of the most recent CoD's, though that's more unlikely. CoD: BO (11.6m) is the lowest of the 'hard to beat' ones.

No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Excellent numbers..and this up to September? So good man

Not gonna lie I said LTD would be 12mil. Reason I said so was cuz I thought sony would bundle this game to kingdom come...lol. Anywho should easily go over 10mil. PS3 is gonna be in the market for a few more years for sure

Shipped, including all the ones sent out for bundles now available and the supply required if the game to take it through the holidays and beyond. But likely undertracked by a few hundred k or so I reckon. I'd expect the next update of shipments to be very small unless heavy bundling continues.

Nintendo showed it was under 200-300k here but no more than that in Europe.

so these numbers are from september. is that Sept 1st, or 30th?

so...

overtracked by ~50k in Japan

undertracked by ~300k in North America

undertraked by ~550k in Europe and Rest of World.

so overall undertraked by about 800k -1million

depending on how much they have shipped/sold these past 2 months

i cant imagine this not being a launch title for ps4. its just a beast of a franchise. gran turismo 6 and uncharted 4 are the 2 games that would make me get a ps4 day 1.

Is there a rough estimate on how many of these were from bundling?

not much, the 7.4 million they had on the site had been as of december 2011, so this has sold 1.5 million from the start of the year, the bundling started about a month ago, so no way it wuold have sold a considerable amount of that 1.5 million

Edit : actually, most likely none of them, as the numbers are as sep 2012. and the bundles started selling in oct

The LT as Sep, 2012 figure is 9.19 million... so Sony shipped 1.79 million this year... AMZING!!!

Oh and GT5 is about to outsell GT3 in Europe.

GT5 is the fastest selling GT ever in Europe... I always said that.

In Asia it sold twice any other GT.
