I think the fact that NA only accounted for 145K out of the 640K sales is pathetic. NA makes up 39% of PS3 user base but only accounts for 23% of the sales is really bad.

 

But then again its not the full game.

 Its not the full version in Japan or Europe either, but it sold way better.

You can also download the game, which will hurt retail sales.

 

How would that hurt sales?
Because people that download it wont buy it at retail.

Thats typical for racing games. They are more popular in Europe/Japan than amercia, you know? FPS sell better in the states. So whats your point?

Edit: Example COD 4 . The install base is better in Europe, this game sells better in America.

Question:

Does VGC have a way to count the GT5:P BUNDLES sold in Europe, which of course add a very significant number of copies sold of GT5:P ?

@magnific0

YES it does

Go ahead and add 56 for PSN, because that is were my whole family got it from. I am so glad Igot the PSN version, Sony needs to make all games available on PSN for those that want the convince of games sitting on thier HDD.

Wait a minute, 56 people in your family have a PS3 and they all bought GT5P via PSN?
