Glorified demo or not, Sony has to be mighty pleased with the early performance of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue in the UK. The game has debuted as the top selling game in its first week, breaking the record for fastest weekly seller on PS3, previously held by Resistance: Fall of Man.
The chart also has Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games in the number two and three spots, and Call of Duty 4 comes in at number seven, proving that the game isn’t only selling like crazy in the United States.
Hopefully this doesn’t lead to an onslaught of releases of incomplete games at slightly discounted prices; the last thing we need is for the games we buy to no longer include all of the features we’ve come to expect from a retail product.
