| Metrium said: I will never understand what makes GT so huge. It's just a racing game, right? So what's so special about it? Some new cars, better graphics and some new tracks and it's a 10mil seller? What does GT have that Forza or Need for Speed does'nt? Their is no new story to look forward to, their is no character that we are eager to revisit. It's just a game that presents you a bunch of car and tracks like many other racing game... Not trying to troll, I'd rly like to hear from ppl what does that series have that Forza or Need for Speed desperetly need to become 10mil sellers. I'm not a fan of racing games, so I usualy don't play any of these anyway. I would say halo is bigger than GT. Ppl talk more about it,also alot of ppl buy a Xbox solely for Halo, meanwhile I don't often hear ppl say they bought a Playstation solely for GT. When asked about why Sony fans are Sony fans, they usualy mention a bunch of other franchise along GT. If Halo was the ONLY Xbox first party franchise (not trying to troll but it's almost the case :P) the Xbox would do fine thx to Halo. Meanwhile take away all Sony first party franchise except for GT, the PS3 would'nt do anywhere near as good as the Xbox imo. But their is no doubt that the biggest first party IP is Mario. The second is Pokémon. You need to be a clueless fanboy to say otherwise. Halo is 3rd imo, GT 4th and Zelda 5th. |
Its the all encompassing racer and with every installment it just grows larger and larger in offerings. In Europe its apart of culture. It put his claim on the racing audience back in the 90's. If it wasnt for GT the racing genre would've been seen as niche. after the 90's and early 2000's.
