No its not subjective, its fact.
The market with the most sales is the most important and Eurpoe has the biggest GT sales by far.
Europe is also the biggest market for the PS3 by the way.
EDIT:
www.psinsider.com will have a live blog and maybe a live stream (that isnt 100% sure).

...and I quote myself too...
The official program announces 3 hours (see page 4 on source: http://www.gamescom.de/global/dokumente/gamescom/Presse_Termine.pdf)
(it´s on page 4 of the pdf...), oops, sorry I think you meant some sort of live feed...

3 hours is a long time to just showcase those few games. It wouldn't be Sony if there weren't a few surprises in there somewhere.
I know it's been said already, but Gran Turismo 5 wasn't on Sony's E3 list either - nor is it on the GamesCom list.
It will be there - either in full force complete with a new trailer, screenshots, a feature list and a release date - or at least some new features and a new trailer - If that is the case, the big reveal will be set for the Tokyo Game Show.

Ok, it sold the most in the past... So what?!
That doesnt mean much. The last full game was five yars ago and a lot changes in five years.
How can you, a guy who plays the game, say what their most important part of the world is? They didnt add NASCAR for Europeans (subjective POV)
A company like PD, or Sony, looks way down the road, not years in the past. You cant argue that.

GT5 Prologue?
I dont say that the other countries arent important too, but Europe is GT "mainland".
Just for the sake of it:

The difference is huge.

That is hilarious. By those numbers North America is their number 1 priority. GT2 and GT3 sold more in North America than in Europe.
I really dont get your point.
So, obviously their sales have dropped off in North America and that is what they need to fix. PD number 1 most important objective is to get more sales in North America (another subjective POV)
I was right... "Europe is their most important market" is subjective. Thanks for posting those numbers to back me up.
Dont act like you know what you dont. Until you tell me you are Kaz dont say what his companies priorities are.

In your last post you said that we shouldnt look in the past.
GT4 and GT5P have more ( a lot more) than twice the sales in Europe, this is a good indication for how the market is now.
But since im a huge fan of american cars (NASCAR included) i dont mind if they try to get better sales in the US of A with a wider american car selection.

I put all that down to the arrival of Xbox. PS3 is more popular in Europe.
It would be interesting if these figures were compared against console sales though, as i imagine there was a larger proportion of playstation to xbox gamers last gen than there is this gen in the US. Who knows maybe number of copies of GT per console sold may be higher than in Europe.
Apparently, at gamescom, Sony will reveal the new redesigned ps3 slim. While that is set to be the highlight of the show, I say what better way to show it off then with the killer app title? Enter gran turismo 5. With both of those releases on their side, I think they can dominate 09 and pave the way for a superior 2010.
At least it's somewhat confirmed that bugatti and lambo will be in the game. The final component that would make me the happiest man would have to be the mclaren f1 LM, and a few other iterations of this car.
Anyways, I do think gt5 will make an appearance somehow. Watch them show the weather aspect... Or go more in depth with the damage.
