I don't think Killzone 2 will really help that much. It's just another shooter.

And Final Fantasy XIII is multiplat.

There is another Ratchet game coming out in Fall and Gran Turismo 5 will arrive shortly after.

Gran Turismo sells systems better than any exclusive game out there.

The Gran Turismo series has sold over 50,000,000 copies to date.

Do you think this is the defining moment for the Playstation 3?

Will it actually overtake the 360 in sales by the end of 2009?

Kazunori:

"Initially, Gran Turismo was an 'alternative' racing game, kind of an outsider in the genre. And we made it thinking that it would be okay as long as it reached out to 'the select few who would agree with us.' So this figure -- 50 million units -- is simply astounding."

GT5 will definitely give the PS3 a boost that's for sure, I don't think that alone will be enough to catch up to the 360 though.

Maybe, I think it could do alot for sales of the PS3, especially considering that the PS3 will probably be cheaper and have more games and stuff by the time GT5 arrives. But I think it's chances of causing the system to overtake the 360 are about 50/50. I just have a feeling it will be too late by then.

So according to this chart Sony is going to sell 20 millon consoles next year, essentially doubling their sales of the first two years with absolutely no current indication of their current sales increasing? Brilliant deduction.

I disagree. There will be no Prolouge 2. Forza 3 will not sell nearly as many units as GT5.

SALES RECORD:

9.53m - Gran Turismo 4

5.22m - Forza 1 and Forza 2 COMBINED.

If you do the math, it has to be near 10m because they sold over 50m units so far. And there are 5 GT games.

great, all the successful ones being on a console that sold like the Wii (PS2) now the PS3, which is flopping with sales both hardware and ESPECIALLY software - which GT was last time i checked.

There are idiots on this planet who still think PS3 will reach PS2/PS1 heights? ****** LOL. PS3 will probably outsell 360 by end of 2011. But it won't be that much of a difference.

i used to prefer GT. but then i played Forza... the realism was refreshing imho. hopefully GT5 isn't as silly as GT5p, and all the rest with the stupid 'on-the-rails' racing where nothing really slows you down, even head on collisions at full speed :P

Did you ever think about the userbase of the consoles? When Gran Turismo 4 was released, the PS2 must have sold about 100 million consoles right? And when Forza 1 was released maybe 20 million xboxes? Forza 2 15 million 360s? It's hardly a fair comparison. BTW I just guessed those numbers. I have no idea what the actual figures are.

[QUOTE="player_leo"]That is some nice graph. I see that the 360 will practiclly stop selling all together in 2010. And that the PS3 will sell 20 million every year. WOW. Back on topic, Forza 3 will take a lot of wind out of GT5. I see GT5: Prologue 2 coming out before the full game.Kratos_OMEGA

I disagree. There will be no Prolouge 2. Forza 3 will not sell nearly as many units as GT5.

SALES RECORD:

9.53m - Gran Turismo 4

5.22m - Forza 1 and Forza 2 COMBINED.

GT4 was on the PS2. PS2's userbase = 100Million.

it depends on when GT4 was released. also ps2=140million

Did you ever think about the userbase of the consoles? When Gran Turismo 4 was released, the PS2 must have sold about 100 million consoles right? And when Forza 1 was released maybe 20 million xboxes? Forza 2 15 million 360s? It's hardly a fair comparison. BTW I just guessed those numbers. I have no idea what the actual figures are.

yeah, this thread is not full of solid argument at all, lol. does give me a good laugh though, watching cows continually take steps back then claiming 'X' will save the PS3, then 'Y' will save the PS3, etc, etc.

Cows said LBP would have the same effect....

I will use the standard cow excuse "Of course it sold more (GT4) it has a larger install base"

This chart is a little over-exaggerated, lol. :P

I don't think Killzone 2 will really help that much. It's just another shooter.

And Final Fantasy XIII is multiplat.

There is another Ratchet game coming out in Fall and Gran Turismo 5 will arrive shortly after.

Gran Turismo sells systems better than any exclusive game out there.

The Gran Turismo series has sold over 50,000,000 copies to date.

Do you think this is the defining moment for the Playstation 3?

Will it actually overtake the 360 in sales by the end of 2009?

Kazunori:

"Initially, Gran Turismo was an 'alternative' racing game, kind of an outsider in the genre. And we made it thinking that it would be okay as long as it reached out to 'the select few who would agree with us.' So this figure -- 50 million units -- is simply astounding."

SALES RECORD:

9.53m - Gran Turismo 4

5.22m - Forza 1 and Forza 2 COMBINED.

Gran Turismo 5 will sell more PS3's than any other PS3 game released so far. Believe it. The install base for the PS3 will get much larger!

No way. And also if the people who made the graph really predict the PS3 will sell more then the Wii in 2012 have to be joking.

i highly doubt it. Polyphony isn't going to waste more time with prologues. The actual game is long overdue and spending resources on another prologue could spell out potential disaster for the GT 5 project, especially after seeing what GT5p did is sales (or should i say, didn't do)

GT4 was on the PS2. PS2's userbase = 100Million.

it depends on when GT4 was released. also ps2=140million

GT3 came out when Ps2 had about the same userbase as PS3 and GT5P doubled GT4P's sales so that kinda throws your userbase arguement out the window affecting sales.

yeah, i think he's fully aware of how ridiculous the claim is. we've proven that GT5 isn't a system seller, but the other way around - a *has-been* must-buy racer. but now there is good competition and PS3 lacks marketshare. no way in hell is GT5 going to changes hearts / minds ;) but whatever, these threads give me a laugh from time to time so i won't complain.

Don't you cows say this with every PS3 exclusive? You guys said this with LBP and R2, well guess what? The 360 is still alive and doing much, much better than the PS3.

Yes, but LBP and R2 did sell systems, no? And Gran Turismo is Sony's #1 flagship title with over 50 million units sold. There are MILLIONS of GT fans hungry for more.

why don't you try, just take a minute, and try to put things in to perspective. then perhaps you'd realize how ridiculous the concept is that GT5 will propel the PS3 out of the red and in to 2nd place. it's just ludicrous.
