Marketing, my friend, marketing.

Brand wise, Halo completely OWN5 GT. Sales wise, of course, favors GT, but marketing reach - brand - are in Halo's favor. You have it plastered all over the place - at fast-food joints, on Slurpees, and has books about it - even a Guitar Hero track. And GT hasn't proven it's gonna be stellar in this gen yet. Even then, it won't have the brand power as Halo. There's even talk of a Halo movie - though that's kinda hard when you realized Halo jacked a lot of its flow from "Aliens."

Still, it's a huge brand, and only a pro-Sony type - a fanboy - would say otherwise. You can hate all you want, but the truth is clear - show me one GT mug, glass or doll - or even car set - in a Wal-Mart, Target or at a 7-Eleven.

 

Other than this picture, do you have any real shots of this car? And that's just one instance. What about - an MTV special? What about a mention on Keith Olbermann when Halo 3 came out? It was his no. 1 story that night.

BTW - what kind of car is that?

What do you mean real shots?  That is a real shot, taken at Le Mans.  Other real shots here at GTPlanet: Link.  GT branding is popping up at racing events all over Europe & Japan, and will probably be talked about on motorsports shows.

 

I had no idea who Keith Olbermann is, so looked him up.  Do you mean the Keith Olbermann who has a show on MSNBC?

 

The car is a Citroen GT.
