Did it or is people just defending it? As I said this can be looked at it in many different perspectives, nobody is right or wrong.

Need for Speed is the actual winner. Note how MBP left the thread shortly after I shred everything to pieces.

Rol is the winner. Thread ends, hopefully...

lol yeah I'll agree Rol is the winner! haha

None of it matters, because if he didn't disqualify games released on Wii with the "HD-console" qualifier, then Mario Kart Wii would singlehandedly beat 'em all combined.

What about Need for Speed? Versions for other platforms are so inferior that they aren't really the same game. Looks like EA is winning this contest.

Ahh, but it's not exclusive.

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

posts like this should be bannable.

Well, asking for a ban in a thread is a bannable offence. So there you go.

The fact is, the OP is being really naive, what's wrong with saying that? Only a sensitive soul like yourself would find that ban-worthy.

It's all very childish in my opinion. It's like kindergarden. "Please sir, lock this thread", "I am going to report you", "Sir, ban this person".

It's ridiculous. Adults shouldn't act like that. Over the stupidest things.

Obviously i don't know anyone's age but I thought this site was for people over 18.

Riiight and the wording and structure of Laurels post wasnt childish? Do me a favour.

Do yourself a favour. Learn to read.

thats without taking into consideration that both GT games are under tracked by a million each

Source?

non other than the developers them selfs. need a better source than that?

http://www.polyphony.co.jp/english/list.html

They include digital sales too though (presumably), so it's irrelevant because we don't know how many digital copies Forza has sold

so until any offical numbers, from what we know GT this gen has outsold Forza.

Lol, no. Vgchartz is the only source we have, so that's the sales we'll use (as it doesn't include digital sales for EITHER game)

for GT, since we have offical sales we should go with them. you know because their offical and stuff

No, because then we can't make comparisons (as there are no official Forza #'s)

Vgchartz is best because it doesn't discriminate between digital & retail

yes vgchartz its the best because it massively undertracks games

No, vgchartz is best because it shows the retail copies sold for each game.

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)
