That's like saying Pokemon is a bigger franchise than CoD because its games have sold higher in the past. The past is over, the present is what counts!

So if GT5 outsell every Halo this gen then it'll be the biggest for you?

Anyway Halo need more 2 or 3 10 millions games get GT franchise.

Ethomaz...GT5 is NOT gonna overtake Halo 3.



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

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Halo 3 is old news. The past doesn't count. We must stick to the present. Since Halo 4 is still in its infancy, we can use Halo Reach to gauge how large Halo is. Coincidentally, Halo Reach also released around the same time as GT5, giving us an even clearer comparison between the two. If GT5 outsells Reach, then I would say Gran Turismo is bigger than Halo in terms of fanbase.

GT5 will probably have passed Reach by January... So thats pretty awesome! Im glad PD actually release shipment numbers. Closing in on that magic 10 Million. Will be the 4th Gran Turismo to hit it!

and again you miss the ludicrous nature of the point you made.

By your logic, no halo game since Halo CE has ever cost money, because the previous game in the series made easily enough to cover the making of the next iteration.

THINK!

No. Halo 3 is a new production... Halo: Reach even... Halo 4 again.

GT5:P just exists to tests the new engine and features for GT5... in fact they are the same game interaction... one don't exists without the other... it's more like Halo 3 to ODST... there is no OSDT without Halo 3.

It's the same team... same development... same engine.

and now you beat your own arguement.

But to humour you...

So halo 2 cost nothng (halo CE engine)

and halo ODST cost nothing as it was Halo 3 engine?

Its barmy logic.

its not quit the same as GT5 and GT5 prologue shared their development costs. and GT5p was esentially and demo or beta of the full GT5. GT5p was a work in progress GT5.  

GT5 prologue was how much progress they had made on the game at the time of its release, and GT5 was progress complete.

it would be akin to if Halo 4 released of half finished version of its self last year. and sold it for ~$30. there wouldnt be 2 seperate development cost associated with Halo 4: prologue and Halo 4.

Halo 4 may sell above Reach...but not GT5 levels (9 million right now and possibly 10 million by the end of the year)
Halo 4 LT Sales with little bundling: (8.5-9 million)
Halo 4 LT Sales with plenty of bundling later on its life cycle: (10 Million)
GT5 LT Sales with little bundling (11.5 million)
GT5 LT sales with massive bundling like GT3 (13.7 Million)

How much do you think Halo 4 will sell by the end of the year?

Oh and FYI Halo: Reach is already above 9 million just by Vgchartz numbers...and when you add the digital download bundling it got last Christmas it's well over 10 million.

Make a thread! Have the data/proof there, but keep it civil.
