That's my point :)

And I'm just saying that both of them have sold regardless of what is popular in the industry, both are top exclusive IPs, the whole "FPS outselling Sim racer, Shocker!" line doesn't exactly apply here. 

It's ok, you're allowed to be wrong. That line does apply here, especially when you take into account the fact that this isn't even a life time sales comparison. The thread is trying to pass off the idea that Halo 4 burning through copies quicker than GT5 at launch is some sort of accomplishment. It isn't. Anyone with a shred of understanding of the market and the sales history of GT and Halo (or shooters in general) should understand that.

 

Totally agree this generation is the worst ever its all about shooters and online. 100's of studios closed because of it. thats why we dont see any kiddy games and innovative games ever all they want is shooters.

im surprised GT is doing that well. Says alot about the brand name.
