The digital sales of a 7th gen game? Even if digital sales are 15% of total sales the game is still 23% undertracked on VGC. |

Wish my PS4 was BC so I could have purchased it. I didn't have a PS3.
| binary solo said: I really don;t like statements like "no other racing game released since GT6 has sold more, with exception to Mario Kart 8, at 5.87 million as of June 2015." It should be enough to say "only one racing game released since GT6 has sold more, being MK8..." Still shows it's sold very well within the racing game genre. |
Imo, MK shouldn't even be considered because it's a seperate genre. GT and Forza are racing sims. Mario Kart is car combat/arcade racing. Comparing MK and GT is like comparing NBA Jam and NBA 2k16. It's just silly.
massive sales for GT5..... damn...
GTSport will be huge as well.
So much for GT6 being a flop. sure, it under performed when it comes to the series standards, but it still sold a lot, and thats when it had to compete with the PS4 and its hype.

Well they should have ported it to PS4 early in the life of the console, it could have sold millions more.
Good numbers, but also a far cry from previous entries.

GT 5 being second highest in GT series is the most surprising aspect.. especially considering how much goom and gloom was around its launch and with not any way impressive PS3 sales and death of racing games interest in NA and Japan.
People need to realize that GT6 sold poorly because it released too close to PS4's release which was a huge mistake. It was also underwhelming a bit in a sense that GT5 was already very good. GT6 just looked like a polished GT5. The IP might have tanked a bit but it's still very popular and all they need to do is make use of the PS4's power and it will sell bonkers again. I haven't played GT6 and didn't even buy it (despite owning all the precedent GTs) but just the thought of GT and the power of the PS4 combined makes me super excited again.
Now... it's poliphony... they will find a way to screw something up and people will complain again.

Cool, but im not a fan of racing car tbh. I want racing aircraft! and something you can boom, boom, chew! chew! Oh it's, a bird!

honestly it was not necessary, most people thought it was more wise to have it as a PS4 game and I would agree, and yeah I think it could have sold more on PS4 than on PS3.
