@Viper1, can you update the GranTurismo4 numbers based off Polyphony Digital numbers. They have them listed at over 10mil worldwide. I have not seen a new copy of GT4 at retail in over 1 year.

I believe this thread and logic are flawed. Because of many of the reasons listed above. I didn't add anything to the thread, but I felt like my opinion was necessary here.

This will be a good list to keep updating as the times go along.

This is simply a set of context data to see how franchises are growing (or not).
