I am not sure the market still exists to crack 10 million for this type of game. My lifetime sales number would be an optimistic 8 but would not be suprised if it did 6 tbh.

I got a bad feeling about this games sales. Kinda like the feeling I get when I'm in rush hour traffic and suddenly I experience explosive diarrhea... descriptive enough?

My shitty prediction: 1 million first week, 4-5 million lifetime sales

I think GT5 will be the most bundled PS3 game AND it will sell for years (bundled and unbundled).

=> between 10 and 15 million lifetime

I wouldn't be surprised if it will end up closer to 15 million than to 10, but on the other hand I wouldn't be surprised if I'm completely wrong with my prediction. I suck at sales predictions...
