Gran Turismo 5: Prologue - Update

After tallying up all of the sales for GT5: Prologue from last week, over the weekend, and into this morning, it's safe to say that Sony's little car game represents our best selling Playstation 3 title to date. Remember the unadulterated madness of last year when the PS3 debuted and people were shelling out $1000 for a 60GB unit? We sold a lot of consoles but very few games. There were days when we'd be shipping out 150 consoles every afternoon and maybe 50 games. As in, 50 games total.

It's been like that over the past year although our domestic PS3 software sales have been spiking up on the strength of releases such as Uncharted and Kain & Lynch. In any case, the power of the Gran Turismo name was in evidence last week and continues this week. It also helps that the PS3 is region-free and we're able to ship the game to customers around the world since everyone can play it without restriction. We've restocked the game again today and new orders are welcome.
