Sales-wise? Sure, it competes. I'd argue it's even potentially MORE successful given how well it sells and how efficiently and quickly the games are developed. GT5 was a ridiculous waste of 6 years, not that the final product wasn't great.


While I know what you're getting at with that comment, I think you should to take the following into consideration -

Gran Turismo 4 - 2004/2005 - 11 Million Seller
Tourist Trophy - 2006 - We only have Japan sales here at over 100k, but the game went Platinum so it's safe to say the game sold over 500k WW.
GT HD - 2006 - No data
Gran Turismo 5: Prologue - 2007/2008 - 5.2 Million units (Inc Downloads)
Gran Turismo PSP - 2009 - 2.3 Million (Inc Downloads)
Gran Turismo 5 - 2010 - 6.3 Million sold in 7/8 Months (Had shipped 6.3 in 2 Months)

6 "Titles" released between 2004 and 2010, without Tourist Trophy and GT HD included here, we reach almost 25 Million units of SW (Inc DL)

And then we have Forza...

Forza Motorsport - 2005 - 1.07 Million
Forza Motorsport 2 - 2007 - 4.01 Million
Forza Motorsport 3 - 2009 - 4.83 Million

3 titles released since 2005, not yet reached 10 Million units.

Make of this what you will.
