No, not really. It only sells to existing owners. Not one of the games in the series have been worth pick up a system for.
What? Someone had to do the trolling in this thread! All the fanboys have been far too slow on this one.
As far as hyped games go. Not necessarily best sellers, but how much people worship the games like a god.
Japan - Dragon Quest
America - Halo
Europe - Gran Turismo
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

The GT prologue games sell around 1-2 millions. The full games sell about 9-10 millions. That should give you an indicator.
Check out my game about moles ^
It is a massive system seller but what the sales of GTAIV tell us is it will probably need an affordable console to be a substantial system seller.

I'll have to see it to believe it... Halo 3 pushed the 360 up to like 500k plus the month of it's release... that's just the US... GT5 will do well, but it'll have a hard time pushing the PS3 to that level and it's getting late in the game... perhaps if a price drop occures before release

If there are any brains left in SOE they'll time GT5 with a pricedrop and the resulting synergy will be crazy. But hey, they used Europe to dump their sixaxis stock so who knows what will happen - the continent has already voted to swallow whatever they do.
Current-gen game collection uploaded on the profile, full of win and good games; also most of my PC games. Lucasfilm Games/LucasArts 1982-2008 (Requiescat In Pace).
I bought a PS to play Gran Turismo. I bought a PS2 to play Gran Turismo. I bought a PS3 to play Gran Turismo. Gran Turismo sells systems like winter sells warm clothing.
@twingo hah loved 'GT is car bible by the car pope'
@Gnizmo haha great trolling. We appreciate your fine efforts!

What does SOE have to do with GT5?
