Why do we make threads like these comparing the sales when it's gonna get the usual,"well PS4 has more console out there" type comments?

Do people not know that beforehand!?

 

Being the creator of this thread I will answer this:

Yes, mathematically, it was very difficult for Forza to win.  But, its interesting to see what people think.  To gauge the trends of opinions and anticipation in a given title.  Comparisons for games in the same genre are always interesting.   Please review the thread:  there were a multitude of valid reasons why Forza could have sold more.  Advertizing, reviews, free editions, open world versus track.  After the release, when DriveClub suffered launch setbacks, people proclaimed that it was utterly unreasonable to think DriveClub could win, and asserted that people who voted for DriveClub in the poll were being unreasonable. 

 

I still think those opinions are valid, but obviously, they were just opinions.  Sure you could say that folks should have known, but that didn't stop (and wont stop) subjective reasoning.
