actually, especially in NA Halo 3 bundles were absolutley tiny. And yes I mean a very very few amount. The Halo 3 edition 360 didn't even come with the actual Halo 3 game. GT3 was HEAVILY bundled.

 

Wow so there we go GT3 was heavily bundled, wonder what mr. tingo and such sony fans as that have to say on this matter.

 

yahh cause some other fanboy said so lol.

OT: hell no...

GOW has a little fanbase than HALO

FF XIII might but absolutely no, even with 360's sales

but combined the two games, maybe yes

i predict, GOW will have 700k-800k range

then FFXIII will have 1.5m for ps3 alone and 800k on 360

but even my prediction is not even close to HALO's superb 1st week launch...

GT might(its a possibility) overpass HALO's domination...
---

regarding which is popular, GT or HALO, i think GT WAS popular but HALO IS popular... get it? hehehehe :), even in my country which has a significantly low
user base of 360(or even xbox 1) than PS3(which is not a suprise), HALO is very known...
as for racing games, GT is not even known, NFS(PS2) is well known here...

but GT is popular around the world( i know it) its just, HALO is much more popular
(i hate to say it)

but we will know for sure when GT5 release...

Toll on fool troll on...

I'm pretty sure its common knowledge that GT3 was at least decently bundled. While halo 3 as ben said had only one bundle in EU for a short period of time.

Here's a link for GT3 being bundle right from the start.  Googled for GT3 bundles and this bad boy was right on the top.

But wait!!!!  I just found this website that currently sells GT3 Bundles http://shopextravaganza.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=1195443  

I'm kinda confused because i thought that sony doens't make GT3 anymore...I looked on google and typed GT3 on google and it appears as if most online stores still carry copies of it, including amazon.  So it looks as if retail stores don't sell it but online stores do, o well that can't contribute to more than a couple hundred thousand units sold since 2004 at the most.

EDIT--I missread the amazon bundle, it appears that it doesn't have a PS2 in the bundle so disregaurd that one.

fail xD

well at least u corrected it, last gen bundles are hard to track mainly because they are unofficial ones. at any rate GT4 was not heavely bundle and managed to get to 9.6 and being second in the gen. GT5 will like pass that.

@ Jo21
The only chance GT5 has of passing Halo 3 is heavy bundling. Halo 3 will eventually hit 10 million and GT5 will never sell 10 million on its own.

well i think GT5 will be bundled maybe not on the release but it will surely be bundled...

if GT franchise produced lots of money for sony, well i think sony should bundled it with the ps3

to sell more hardware

Yeah but wasnt GT bundled??? i know when i bought my 2nd PS2 it was included in the package. So how many of those 14M people actually went and bought the game??

 

 

What HAlo3 was not bundled lol.

Why yes it was....but the majority of Halo 3 copies sold on their own 

Bundles for Halo 3 were and are far and few between.

Anyone know how heavily GT3 was bundled??

 

ROFL.

Most played Live game in 2007 and 2008? HALO 3.

NEARLY 2 YEARS after launch, well over 1 million UNIQUE gamers play Halo 3 online DAILY, lets see KILLZONE 2 do it!

Dont talk about bundles, lol.

GT5 will not sell 4 million in 1 week on PS3, face it.

And stop talking about GT5, this thread is about GoW III and FFXIII.

they're both anticipated and FFXIII is on 2 platforms

@TheSoldier00
agreed that this is not GT5 vs HALO
but disagree that GT5 will not sell 4 million in 1 week...

u see GT5 might do it... but doesn't seems likely because the game is not out yet...
