HIGHLY doubt they'll be #1 in Europe.
How much of a lead does the PS3 have over the 360 this year in Europe? It a 1-million lead.......
The only way it can possible beat it the PS3 is with a price cut which is definitely happening sometime this year.

That's Q1, tallies up to 280 - 300k, so for Europe I doubt it's a million.

Does the chart total all European sales, or just the biggest markets?

Forza 4 has had a massive increase in attention in EU largely due to Top Gear being big in Germany, France, Spain and Of course the UK. Also the fact that GT5 disappointed across EU reviewers and forums. So Forza 4 does have a chance to sell some consoles this time.

This is funny. selnor, read the reviews please. Don't just look at the scores. Actually read them.

And then, after you've done it... Block everything you read from your mind and look at Gran Turismo 5's "EMEAA" sales. It's sold, according to VGChartz, over 4 Million units in less than a Year. It's sold only 100,000 units less than EVERY SINGLE Forza game combined in EMEAA.

Outside of America, despite review scores or forum banter, Forza isn't in the same league as Gran Turismo. I wonder how many copies of Forza Microsoft will bundle this Year...

This. And if Forza 4 is really so good and strong, why does it need so much FUD to be spread against GT5?
