Any official release date for the GT5 game? If it's too long of a wait, I might just close my eyes in pain and buy the bloody half a game. :)

GoW2 ( expect 7 - 9 million entire life and over 2 mill first day), Fable 2 (expect 5-6 million entire life and 1.5 mill fist day) BK3 (expect 4 - 5 mill sales entire life and 1 mill first day).. Tales/IU/TLR should get to 2 or 3 million! post id: 868878
Episode 2:
Letsdance: FFXIII (PS3+360) first week in NA = 286K
According to pre-order rate in week 13 (post id: 2902544)

All i can say is WOW!

Looks like this is the first big game that is going to be released on the PS3 :D



I was planning on waiting for the full version but the more I see on Prologue the more I think I might have to buy it.



If a"Demo" gets more sales than many complete games I will LOL at many people.

Maybe those are retailer preorders? Is this reliable? Becouse this number is really shocking (even if it's retail):
- this isn't even full GT
- some people will download the game (so they'll obviously won't preorder it)
- the previous instalment of Prologue didn't actually sell that good (below 1 mil LTD in EU)
- userbase still is rather small
I think that record for European market is around 280k (PES) if this info is true GT5P will do 5 times as much or maybe more. Is it really possible?



@Kamil

put it this way on AMAZON (yes I know not a reliable source but still) Gt 5 prologue has been in the top 40 since 1 month & now with 2 weeks to go it is in the top 15 constantly..

In my town at GAMe, HMV & Gamestation I have asked about prologue and I have seen many other people enquiring about it as well..

Now that is just UK, in other EU countries who knows?

ALSO Gt 3 prologue came out on around I think 10 million Ps2 userbase, so its EU userbase shouldn't be much smaller or larger than Ps3's currently..

@ kamil

Im thinking that this retailers pre orders. Wow. I'm stunned.

"Will GT 5 negate any Xbox 360 price drop in EU?"

They'll both do exceptionally. Market is big enough for 2 sales spikes.

"Will Gt 5 be Ps3's first blockbuster at launch?"

Yes, yes it will.

"How is a demo selling so well?"

Most people don't even know it's a demo, unfortunately.

"Oh and one more thing! 1 MILLION!!ZOMG"

That's bound to be retailer preorders, but still ZOMG and very good for Sony.



Ok...

we have lets say 1 million from EU, 250K from Japan

From Na...I am not aware of Gt popularity there, so maybe 500K..

thats close to 2 million!
