no way Forza is a well known franchise

Please give reasonability at least a small chance. Of course it is - it is well known by gamers. It's bundled a lot, it already had 4 iterations, in Germany the free-play-stations always have Forza installed, it has quite good sales... This is like saying Killzone is not a well-known franchise (while I think it's not so well-known like Forza).


I think you read that wrong:

"No way, Forza is a well known franchise"

is how I read it.

 

Well, could be :) Perhaps sniper989 will explain it :) Small comma, totally different meaning.

no clue, maybe both almost the same but why do i have the feeling that you always hope to see everything having more success as forza? what did those nice guys at turn 10 do to you^^ maybe drive club can sell more because racing fans tend to buy playstation systems. but really hard to say, i just have to see how good drive club will be.

and games like forza or killzone have no low sales, the have normal sales. a game like gt has just high sales.

Launch games hardly ever sell close to 5 million copies especially launch games of a unproven franchise.

Motorstorm sold close to 4M in a bad launch console.

I expect to PS4 have a way better launch than PS3.

I resolved to make this thread firstly to support agains my ban but at the end the subject became interesting for me that I will make a new prediction here.

I say Drive Club will outsell Forza 5 in both period... launch time and life time.

Why?

Well my point is support by the fact Forza games have low sales... 2-4M per interaction and for a new console that will not get a big user base in at least two years the numbers will be even low... the Forza franhcise didn't grown over the generation and the only game to have so-so sales was Forza 3.

Drive Club is in the same boat but I think the PS4 will sell more than Xbone so at the end Drive Club will have good number... better than Forza 5 at least.

And you what do you think?

I think you have a really weird definition of low sales.



Signature goes here!

Drive Club is going up against Need for Speed: Rivals which will be also available on the PS4 and will be a similar game. Forza 5 has no direct competition its the only sim racer available on the XBox One until Forza 6 comes out.

Motorstorm was also one of the most heavily bundled games on the PS3.  I'm pretty sure it had more bundled copies then copies that where actually bought by consumers.

Ok, I take everything back :)

If it gets massively bundled like Motorstorm, it might have a chance.

But non bundled sales in comparison: Not a chance.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
