Digital sales isn't going to change what he said. Going by pure vgchartz numbers, he is actually right to say such a statement.
Granted its only week 1, but the comment is based on week 1 openings for mainline titles.

because VGC has been so right with Gran turismo sales in the past.
how about i tell you this, next time halo releases ill call it a megaflop because it sold less in its first 48 hours than other halo games sold in their lifetime.
i swear the nonsense thats being spit out in these forums are increasing by the day.
| TruckOSaurus said I just wanted to know if you believed that somehow digital sales were going to push the first week sales of GT6 to something close to GT5's first week of sale. It seems it is not the case so all things considered (even including digital sales) GT6 is underperforming compared to GT5. It's true in pure number of units sold and even truer in sales relative to userbase. |
If i would have stated something unreasonable, you and other's would have laughed it off, the fact that my number is more than reasonable shows this is not about framing this in fair terms. Again,if it was being fair to the number's saying that just because a week's data shows a result, does not mean it shows a solid trend, yes it may, but that does not mean it would end up that way.
you and other's are trying to frame this in the shortest point in time to be the sample size for the over all growth of the number's which is really not being truthful at all. because its too short point of time, and not enough extended data.
Like i stated before, just because the number's are not to where GT5 was early, in its release does not mean that GT6 cannot exceed GT5's number's due to the fact that more online distribution on more than just playstation could infact run higher than GT5, some may say than GT6 would no longer be an exclusive to playstation platforms? than you can make of that what you will, the real truth of the matter is until the sales over time comes in we really do not have very solid performance number's or how the software will perform in the market over time. when this time, there will be more platforms that GT6 can be on, Hell GT5 may not go to Gaikai but GT6 May instead or it could be vice verse.
we do not know yet.

When the numbers change, so can our midnsets and arguments. Until then, hold your tongue.
Compare it to say Halo 3 in 48 hours and sure you are more then welcome. Because it makes no sense to compare Halo 5 to Halo 4 since its from different gens, unlike GT6 to GT5.
"i swear the nonsense thats being spit out in these forums are increasing by the day" = I am upset that we can dish out the bragging and trash talk but when the opposite team gets ammunition I can't take it in return.

I guess delusions are ammunition to some.

Anything is possible but right now we can only comment on the first week on sale because that's all we have.
Signature goes here!

except we dont even have that.
we have a guess excluding digital.
| DirtyP2002 said: Well... 1/3 of the opening week of GT5 is a flop for GT6. You have to see things in perspective and this is by far the worst selling GT game in the history of this franchise. And this is not even a spin-off, prequel or something like that. This is a full and complete main-title that sold so poor. Sounds like Damage Control to me. |

| sales2099 said: Hey, just going with what we know. It could have legs and it could not. But you seriosuly are putting waaaaaay to much stock in its potential digital sales. It seems like it is all thats keeping you from loosing your sh&t. Just saying to CONSIDER the real world factors at play here. Generation in decline, less marketing, less incentive to upgrade from GT5.....sometimes these things happen. This game will still profit. You will still enjoy the crap out of this game. Sales trends has NO impact on those things. This isn't a big deal, just let it go. |
which is not much with only 1 week of data on hand, im putting way to much stock in digital sales? really, what im pointing out is that we have no real idea how much impact digital sales has on the iP, but what we do know is Sony, Microsoft Nintendo are all investing heavy into it. why would i be loosing my $hit? because im not calling 1 week data as the be all end all Matrix to determine a success or failure or a disappointment of the iP sales after only one week of sales?
in this market for several months the Nintendo 3ds was not selling as well, than look at it now!
