You mean a game on a console with a huge install base will most likely outsell a game on a console that just launched? Wow. Who knew. Might I suggest you seek a job in rocket science because you obviously see things the rest of us cannot |
It doesn't matter what the fanbase is..well yes it does but...GT5 sold 10 million on an install base of 80 million. I don't think a single Forza has sold half that yet the 360 has an install base of 80 million. I think what PS3-sales meant by that part of his post was that GT will still sell more than Forza no matter what the meta/hate/install base/consumer opinion is.

Forza Motorsports 3 sold 5.36 million copies so its more then half of 10 million. Also each Forza game could have sold more it there where more then a two year gap between each release.
|
ok. sorry there was a forza game that reached half of what GT5 sold. If there was more than a two year gap it wouldn't affect the sales at all...look at the sales of Forza 4 a year and a half out. Look at the sales of any Forza game a year and a half out and you will see that they aren't that great unless you include the holiday bundle sale that Forza 3 had.

Wrong again the only Forza game that was massively bundled was Forza 2 and speaking of bundled games GT3 is still the most bundled racing game of all times especially in North America where you can find a bundle copy of the game which has a red case just as easily as you can find a regular retail verison of the game.

Forza 3 had a holiday bundle that was in effect for the holiday season a couple of christmas' ago, it added quite a lot to its tally but at the same time I didn't say anything about heavily bundled, don't get so defensive. I don't know what you are trying to prove here by continuing to compare Forza's sales to GT's sales because bundled or not, GT has always been the sales leader. Heck, even the prologue to GT5 sold millions causing GT5's full retail to be profitable from day one. GT just has more buying power and is marketed better.
