Okay everyone says gt5 will sell like a TRILLION copy but i dont see it happening because if you look back to what other racers have come to
over the years, it looks like racers are just not as popular.
For example Need For Speed went from selling 6.38 million on ps2 alone to selling 1.83 million on 360 and ps3.
even Forza 2 wich was released in 07 sold 4.06 million and Forza 3 with all its hype only sits at 1.42 million.
So these games seem to sell about 25% of what thier highest selling predesesors did, so that would put gran turisom 5 at 3.75 million, 25% of what GT3 A-spec sold.
But considering that Gran Turismo is a stronger franchise and that gt5 prolouge sold 3.30 million, I think a realistic Prediction is
4.5 million.
Whats yours?

GT5 Prologue has done over 4 million, actually. It has 700k+ digital downloads off the PSN Store.
Otherwise, your argument is just poorly argued.
The NFS series went to shit, hence its declining popularity (also, PS2 install base was huge), whilst Forza 2 had 2.2 million bundles, so its sales would actually have been 1.8 million, making Forza 3's 1.4 million right now look absolutely fine.
Anyway, aside from all that, the fact that Prologue has done 4 million copies, despite being basically an expensive demo, shows that the GT series' popularity has not waned.
