With this thinking, despite a higher Meta, Gran Turismo is leaps and bounds better than Forza. Again - using that thought process, not that it is or isn't that way in absolute.


Thats different.

What I meant was people actually played Resistance and 'then' shunned the series. 

Forza is the opposite. Its growing. So more people  are buying Forza because its quality with each progressive game.

Res 1 = 4.16 mill 

Res 2 = 2.37 mill

Res 3 = 1.31 mill                          OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

People clearly dont agree Resistance franchise is worth their time. Even those that bought into the series in the first place.

 

Forza 1 = 1.06 mill

Forza 2 = 4.00 mill

Forza 3 = 5.38 mill

Forza 4 = 4.00 mill            Growth and sustanance. See completely different to Resistance lack of support.

 

Gran Turismo is wieder still. 

5 is odd. Its droped 4 mill in US on GT3. dropped 4 mill in EU and dropped 1 mill in Japan. Yet Rest Of World is up 4 mill. Very odd. Forza 4 actually has already sold more in EU than GT5 and nearly leveled the playing field in US. I'm surprised by this.

The numbers are messed up for GT5. Forza has not sold more than it there. Not sure what happened, but ioi explained this in another thread. As for Resistance, people were hurt enough by R2, but that doesn't mean R3 was of less quality. Plus, going by what you posted, Forza 3-Forza 4 (5.38mill vs 4.00mill) had an even bigger drop than Resistance 2 - Resistance 3 (2.37mill vs 1.31mill), which, of course, doesn't take into account ratios, but it still creates perspective. In neither case would I say it's bad, but that's definitely not "growth" for Forza.

Right now, those figures do not prove what you're saying, otherwise you then have to admit that Call of Duty is the most quality driven franchise around, even more than Mario, GT, or Halo.

While I personally dont agree. The sales show COD holds a high quality value that has meaning  to many players. It has a huge folowing with alot of love whether we personally agree or not. This also applies to GT. Reviews aside more people currently hold its value higher than Forza.
