    Wow congrats GT. Its probably the best selling Franchise Sony has.

    I expect GT5 to make big waves of money come release. I mean GT4 made 8.70 million more sales than the prologue. That must mean after GT5 comes out it will get that high again reaching close to 60 million sales. Impressive.

      Hehe, yeah. I think that GT5 might actually get past 60 million. But seriously, congrats Gran Turismo!

    GT is one of the best racing games and I'm not surprised at its sales. They've set the standard for all racing games since the first game and they continue to add to that. Bravo
