More POPULAR? Not in any stretch of the imagination. Higher SELLING? Yeah.

Halo is more popular because it isn't just a game series anymore. I've seen novels, toys, machinimas, parodies, cartoons, comics, t-shirts, drinks, dolls, sculptures, and for even the THOUGHT of Halo having a movie rose a huge turnout of people hoping for it not to mention the ungodly and extremely active fanbase, including the tons of people who even just sat outside of Gamestop on launch day.

As far as popularity goes, Halo eats just about every other possible video game franchise. As far as sales goes, GT sells, or is bundled with(I wasn't tracking last gen) more then Halo.

But doesn't this have something to do with the fact that we live in America?

Then show me the European Gran Turismo soda, books, comics and movies.

It doesn't have a soda, book, or comic I think. Neither has a movie.

Although I know GT has very nice watches! People have branded their cars with GT logos. I'm sure there is more. I just spent 5 mintues with google search.

I know these are fan-made...but really...when a game gets THIS kind of stuff made about it just from fans:

A Thundercats fan trailer, made by editting movies frame by frame.  Have I proven that fan trailers don't prove relative popularity or do I need to look for more?

 

Look for more.
