Ohhhh!!!!!! This thread is so sweet :P It's like a naive 6 years-old created it.

But if thinking that lets you sleep at night, YES! Wooooh Forza for tha win!!!!!!11111 GT zukz! :)
Now you can go and be happy!

All I'm doing is stating facts...no need to get personal

Yeah, "stating facts".

Like a user said before:

Forza average: 3.06 m
GT average: 6.12 m

So, that's also a fact. But you created the thread not because you found an awesome fact. You created it because you thought it was going to be controversial and PS3 fans were gonna be pissed off.

I don't get personal, but the OP is a very naive post. It's like those controversial news sites that make controversial articels just for the hits.

Wow...I included screenshots to show exactly what games/how many games were included. The OP is just 100% factual. Any biases or inaccuracies you can see are in your mind, because they're not in my OP.

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

This thread backfired bigtime, gran turismo is undertracked

Forza may also be under tracked, but that's irrelevant. Vgchartz uses the same algorithms for Forza AND GT

by the time GT5 stops selling, it will outsell all forza games on 360 combined! when it comes to sales, forza isnt even competition for GT.

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.

This is true.
