What are you talking about? I didnt say that GT dropped in quality level. You totally missed the point. The lack of games is diluting the brand. That was my point, that is what i was talking about. And The series took a huge hit in sales (more than 50%!), if it takes the same for the next entry guess what? It sells about as much as forza, if not less. The forza's sold about 4-5m on the 360 wich is where the comparable GT6 was. So, they arent that different in size atm and THAT is the problem. GT should be bigger than that. Stop pretending there isn't a problem. There obviously is. |
Ok, so your dilluting is talking about interest. Ok.
The series dropped a lot in sales, but that in nowhere suggests those were lost sales to Forza.
Curiously you compare the Forza that sold 5M to the only GT that dropped in sales around that in trying to push a point that can't be validated.
I'll say there is a problem when GT7 fails to get near 10M. Not before.
About lack of releases, from PS1 to PS3 there were 2 mainline GTs per gen. While GT3 and GT5 got prologues. Since gen were bigger and the architeture were more complicated it took more time to have a GT on it.
I would love they improve the sice of GT team and had deliver GT7 already. But I preffer it stays a 1-2 games per gen then a yearly franchise. What is the point in having cosmetic changes every year? This isn't Fifa for plantel changes. People complain about a lot of games having yearly entries, but then you asks for a yearly GT. Crazy stuff
