It's a marginally better game,what does everyone expect. I said it wouldn't sell months ago.  Not a bomb, but not what the Gran Turismo fans were expecting.  Should have scrapped the idea of GT6 and went straight to GT7.

It was announced and released without delay. That means people don't really expect it to be out yet.

I think Sony knew this from the start, that's why they released the bundle since day 1.

I think it´s still a bit early to say its a "bomb"

It will sell enough to give the developers some profits. And Gran Turismo games normally sell for a long time. It will be financially successful in the long run, but not as the previous game, of course

I´m pretty sure Knack outsold 3D World in Indonesia... oh wait....

It will still well. Its hardly bombing. But I understand what the op means, in comparison to previous GT sales I think it will be considerably the lowest. By several million maybe 5 million LT less?

Interestingly though its direct competitor Forza 5 sold 600,000 in the first week according to VGC. In respect, Froza 4 which was the previous best opening week was 515,000. I wonder if any fans are trying out Forza 5 and Xbox One?

huh .. its a hell of a lot better gamer then the mess Gt5 was early on, it took a long time to get it sorted.  Driving physics which this game is all about there is a massive improvemnt.

yes scap what will sales countless millions make hundreths of millions in profits and will help ofseat PS4 launch costs.

brilliant.

No, it just seems the typical Sony fanboys who love to spread Nintendo doom and gloom and leave 30 comments per topic are nowhere to be found !

So it's "Brilliant" if Sony releases a game that sells terribly compared to it's predecessor because it will profit them substantially, yet, when another company (Nintendo or M$) have a sequel that sells less (yet still profits well) than it's predecessor it is doomed or they are milking the franchise and it's becoming stale. 

P.S Not saying you said that, I'm just generalizing alot of comments I've read recently.

Wow this is terrible for Sony. GT was basically there only inter-generational system seller IP they have but it looks like it has finally gone bust.

Cant say I am surprised, the series has stagnated since the PS1, same terrible bumper car physics and car handling with a fresh coat of paint. The games just got too boring a repetitive. While series like Forza have caught up and surpassed GT while it stood still.
