Oh wow, it looks like Gran Turismo Sport is facing some trouble. I don't think it'll be a huge hit like the other games. GT6 was the beginning of the end for the franchise. Right now it looks like GTS is going to do Tekken 7 numbers (slightly better) from the looks of things.

It's only like in the top 3 in Italy.

Think the lack of content is definitely hurting it.

Also the always online thing, which Xbox already proved is a popular idea.

It's not going to do mainline GT series sales, but Amazon might be somewhat deceptive as there are two versions of the game, and most people online seem to be ordering the deluxe version. I know in Amazon UK it has two versions selling at no. 5 and no. 6, so it's difficult to gauge just how the game is doing. I expect US numbers to be bad, though, just like they tend to be with the Forza mainline games. Americans tend to prefer arcade or cartoony racers like Mario Kart or Need for Speed, and Forza Horizon 3 did well here.

Where's Battlefront 2? You think people are boycotting because of pay to win loot boxes?

Amazon is only selling digital copies, so it's not really tracking well on their site.
