look at just dance 1 numbers
|
Yeah,but what opponent did just dance have?Exactly,none.When people look at GT5's score,they will see that NFS:HP and Forza 3 have higher reviews,and what will they do,in the most probable case?Choose them over GT5.
That may not make a big difference,but it still has a small impact.

then look at just dance 2 numbers then :P dance central has a higher meta score and was still beaten
|
Stupid comparison, DC is on a new platform, by the end of this holiday it'll have a 5 million install base to sell to, Just Dance will have 16 times that.
|
I get your point, but I don´t think user base matters that much. A game can still sell well despite the user base. It has been proven before.
|
Depends on the franchise and the scale of the previous games numbers. GT4 ect were bought by a lot of casual PS2 users, that have more than likely moved onto Wii or 360. Very few will jump over for an 85 rated sim when they can get 2 90 plus rated ones on 360.
|
*looks at unbundled Forza sales* doesn't look like too many GT fans moved on to 360.
|
What are the unbundled Forza sales then?
Forza jumped from 1 mill last gen, to 4 mill this gen. Forza 3 at 3.3 mill with minimal bundling atm. You have no idea how many users it's stolen.
|
Look at the Forza 2 sales graph. There is a massive spike (roughly 1.8M) in NA due to a christmas time bundle in NA where most 360's came with Forza 2.
Forza 2 was also released onto a bigger userbase and had much more hype than Forza 1. The Forza 2 bundle got people who wouldn't normally buy a racing game into racing games (Forza 2 is a very good game, much better than Forza 3 in my opinion). This is where Forza 3 has got its sales. Not from European GT fans moving to 360. This is clear from GT5 first week sales in Europe.
