GT5 Will Outsell any 360 Exclusive

[QUOTE="Elian2530"] [QUOTE="ohthemanatee"]

[QUOTE="Elian2530"][QUOTE="ohthemanatee"]gran turismo 3 sold almost twice as Halo 3 I can't remember what Gt 4 sold, but I remember it sold considerably less then 3ohthemanatee

I said almost twice as much

GT 3 sold 14 million, it very nearly hit the 15 million mark but it came up short. Or so says Wikipedia

oh, according to Wikipedia GT 2 sold 9 million, I thought it sold more....

Ahh ok. I like your user icon. Reminds me of my old gamertag: Bluefish2530

just to clear things up though, Halo 3 sold 8.1 million as of January 2008.

According to Vg chartz Halo 3 is now at 11 million

So if Halo reach surpasses it's predecessor then it stands a fair chance of surpassing GT 5 in sales

Outselling any 360 exclusive is a maybe, but will def sell more than Gears 2 as both GT5P and Gears 2 sold ~5 millions.

Halo 3 is at ~11 millions, GT games in the past has beat tha number.

There is no way GT5 outsells Reach....360 has a larger market share (unlike last gen) than the PS3. GT on the PS2 was that sucessful because of the 100mill+ sold consoles...Sony is in last place this gen.

BURSTIIIFIRE

how many did GT5 P sell so far? im guess GT5 will sale that and a half life time. to many other fun racing games out and other good racing sims out. this is not last gen. where GT was the only racing sim in town.

but same could be said for halo reach its not the only online shooter in town. but then again more poeple like shooters over racing sims

gt5 is known for there large sales numbers especially in europe. i wouldn't be surprised if it 15 million copies.

fyi system wars gt5 prologue is the 3rd best selling game on ps3 selling just over or under 5mil for a demo lol

This is gonna fail really hard. Halo Reach will probably sell more in its first week than GT5 entire sales for 2010. Plus GT5 only has like two months while Halo has about four months.

As for lifetime sells, I'm not sure. Both series sell for years after release, but if I had to pick one I would go with Reach just because their are more 360's out there.

I bet with the endless series of delays it must have made a lot of people angry. That being said, a ton of people are still going to buy it for sure.

"GT5 will outsell Halo reach and any 360 exclusive by the end of 2010"

unless GT5 gets delayed to december... or 2011

with no piracy on PS3, it should pull amazing sales, outselling Reach

btw i dont care about scores anymore, if a mario rehash with last gen graphics gets a 10, i just dont care.

COD Doesnt count its multi-plat, nintendo doesnt count either, this is between current gen consoles, 360 vs PS3, Wii is a lastgen console.

It's just a racing sim. Geez. :?

Sales for GT5 are going to be pretty underwhelming imo. They have taken so long I think alot of people have just lost interest in it

If there is any exclusive who has a decent chance its gt5 without no doubt.

i hope so.

so that when i go buy a game i'd hear guys talking about racing in a Veyron or Zonda than kids talking about space rangers or pwning people online. seriously.

I dont really care how much GT5 will sell, i just cant wait for the game to get released so i can enjoy it... been waiting WAY TOO long for the game :)

Also i think its quite obvious that games such as GT5 & Halo Reach will sell like crazy but i hope we dont see hundreds of sales threads being created on a weekly basis once both titles get released and sales figures start popping out..

Haha, now if Halo Reach does sell more (which it probabaly will), you are probabaly going to end up on a lot of sigs, quoting you :P . I do hope GT5 sells really well though, I just can't wait for the game, it is going to be GOTY for me

PS3 has piracy, google is your friend ;) toxicmog

oh please, so you know anyone who actually has a pirated ps3 copy?? or a country that has stores selling pirated ps3 games??

you can search in china and the mid east but you'll never find one. unlike the 360. it sells there because you can get free games.

heck, that's one of the reasons why ps2 and ps1 sold very well. before i moved to canada, the country where im from had ps2 games for $2 a piece, against a $70 for an original game. go figure.

It won't outsell it even if it would, who cares?deleterguy

You've clearly never been to eastern europe if you think you cant find pirates games for ps3

I won't be buying it, here's my history with GT. When I first got a PS2 I had the choice of getting Resident Evil CV or GT3. I picked GT3 because it had awesome graphics and I wanted to show off what the PS2 could do.

OH man the game was amazing looking, but after a few race's I was bored out of my mind. I hated the car handling, the racing was boring the other cars didn't make you feel like you where in a race, there AI was terrible.

I had little money so I was stuck with GT3, I sat there for the whole night cursing myself for not getting Resident Evil.

And GT5 will be the same boring, I'll stick to Blur or Split Second

There is big difference here between a gaming enthusiast and fanboys saying their racing sim will sell better than every 360 exclusive....:|

Fanboys? Historically GT sells HUGE amounts. More then even the largest exclusives (Including Halo)

Who's the say it wont outsell the current 360 exclusives? GT is a HUGE series, especially with people who many around here wouldnt consider real gamers. It has appeal many other games don't.

OK, U.S. 24-hour sales of Halo 3 reached 2.5 million, and the game sold ~4.5 million in its first week on the market, despite the fact that ONLY 11.6 MILLION Xbox 360 consoles had been sold around its launch.

Let's not forget that 1.7 million had preordered Halo 3 in the U.S. before a single store had began selling the game.

Let's see GT5 do ANYTHING that comes even remotely close. :lol:

Using teh math. Assuming there will around 44 million xbox's by Reach release, then reach would sell around 8? 9 million? First day?

Nah, Reach is not nearly as anticipated as the third game in the series was, "The Return of the King" (Finish the Fight and all that). Modern Warfare 2 may also have affected the sales of future Halo games. I think Black Ops may sell as much as Reach, easily, simply because Call of Duty has become an extremely powerful series recently.

Nonetheless, let's say that Halo 3 was released now - with the same level of hype as in 2007 - with ~40 million Xbox 360 consoles sold, it would easily cut Modern Warfare 2's all-platform sales record in half. But Halo's popularity, level of hype and general buzz have descended immensely since the Halo 3 launch and the launch of Call of Duty 4.

There will never be a Halo 3 again, but that doesn't mean GT5 will easily outsell Reach. Reach is going to be tough to beat.

I will be one of those sales. :D

Funny thing is that Reach already has almost 4.5 times as many pre-orders than GT5 does....

Yeah, er, this is American pre-orders. Gran Turismo's main market is Europe and Japan. fail.

Halo Reach probabaly will sell more yes, but using vgcharts for North American pre-orders is never a good indication of how well a game will sell Worldwide once a game is released.

Is this a joke thread. Halo reach will crush gt5.

Cows don't care about sales until Gran Turismo enters the picture. Claiming Halo outsold Killzone, God of War and Uncharted combined was immature to them, but apparently this isn't.vashkey

btw i dont care about scores anymore, if a mario rehash with last gen graphics gets a 10, i just dont care.

COD Doesnt count its multi-plat, nintendo doesnt count either, this is between current gen consoles, 360 vs PS3, Wii is a lastgen console.

Why doesnt the wii count? because it may actually beat teh p0wef0l ps3 n teh celL.

So but if anything is going to outsell reach etc it will be starcraft 2, new WoW expansion *shudders* and diablo 3. Idk if they are coming out this year but my god am I expecting goliath sales from those.
