So now I ask, where did he claim it would sell 15M?

By putting 15 million in the title, he set the ceiling.

The TC is the one i'm referring to.

 

You still said he claimed it would sell 15M, which he didn't.

 

Anyways this is a pointless argument.

To be fair.  I took it as him claiming it would sell 15 million.

 

Nobody had ever come up with a 15 million number beforehand.

@coolbeans

thats just my theory why F3 isnt sell as well as it should be or it could be no one is interested in racing sims anymore



Sales look pretty good to me. Should be one of the top 5 selling racing games of this generation by the end of the year.

Well he originally stated that "most" Sony/PS3 fans claimed GT5 would sell 10M in less than 6 months.

When asked for a link he provided one where the general consensus was 7-10M, with ioi even agreeing that 10M was very possible. Also nobody from the 6-7 pages I read even mentioned it selling 10M within 6 months.

When proven wrong he backed into this whole 15M argument, saying that when he mentioned the 10M thing he was actually referring to the OP of that thread claiming 15M, which in turn completely invalidated his whole "majority of" statement since he says he was really just talking about that ONE user.

 

If it does so happen that this ONE user did in fact think the game would sell 15M units, there is no reason to group majority of one specific userbase of this site in along with it.

Seems about right given no-one really cares about sims any more.

The big genre is shooters these days.

I'm just waiting for the confirmation that GT5 will sell 10 million units in less then 6 months without any bundles, like most GT/PS3 fans have been saying.

 

Who said that ?!?! lol Have heard 10 Million is his full life but never heard anywhere about 10 Million in 6 months.

Oh I agree.  I'm just saying to be fair it seemed like one user was in fact saying that.

I agree that part was fair, but it was amusing to see himself back off his original argument to that extent.

why did you post this? you don't even have a 360. go play with yourself instead of annoying me.



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

Hope this stands as a lesson to those xbox fanies calling X game a failure just because it didnt sell like halo.....have a taste of your own medicine.



Banned....ouch, guess you've been naughty...
