*Golf Clap* Yet ANOTHER thread started on this forum by a 'Microsoft fan' with the intention of trolling and bashing Sony all under the guise of 'being factual' whilst his fellow 'Microsoft fans' chip in with posts trying to put down or reporting anybody else who tells the truth of what this thread is really intended for. It's really getting out of hand how many threads like this are being created, i wish the mods would sort out the people involved in this constant console bashing.


You know I actually agree with you.  Mods locked multiple Forza vs Gran Turismo threads last week so I dont see why threads like this shouldnt be locked.

Desperation if you ask me.

I allready made my case for the sales of said games above. I know you read that.



All I know is this thread was originally about sales. Then you were proven wrong so you brought up some arbitrary rules and guidelines. I t really lessens your point because anybody could support their agenda if they used meaningless and arbitrary rules like you did. It's a shame really, that you have to drop to such low levels because Halo 4 isn't big enough on its own.

I counted everything from both including Horizons as his sig is talking about everything. If we are talking about main series only both series goes up by a little but Forza still comes out on top I think.  Let's find out because I'm not sure.

GT-96
GT2-93
GT3-95
GT4-89
GT5-84

Prologue-82
HD Concept-80
Gran Turismo PSP-74

I didn't include Prologue or Concept because they probably aren't really main series.

Forza-92
Forza 2-90
Forza 3-92
Forza 4-91

Forza Horizons-85

GT Main series Average-91.4
Forza Main Series Average-91.25

GT Average-86
Forza Average-90

See I took them out which definitely helped out.  Anyways I'm just stating that this generation Gran Turismo hasn't been the best is all.  I've been fair and I'm being honest.  

Why is the PSP game even being counted? Why not just compare the full GT games vs. full Forza games, which would include Horizon. Horizon is a full game, no? It's like not counting Ascension in the future when talking about the GoW series. I don't think that's the way. 

Because I was talking about his sig which is counting all of these games?  Why are you getting upset, I excluded all three of those games from the main series just like Horizons is not the main series.  If you want me to include Horizons then shouldnt I include prologue?   Pezus we are just never going to agree. I still respect you though just because you are at least pretty honest about things.

He has changed this thread multiple times.  Anyways be honest do you expect all those sony exclusives to outsell Halo 4 by the end of this year?  It's not like Halo 4 is just going to stop selling games.  I get what you are saying but by the end of this year Halo 4 probably will outsellf all of those games combined.



No one can predict the future. If Halo 4 does outsell all of PS3's exclusives, then that would be cool. But it hasn't happened yet. That's like creating a "PS3 outsells 360" sales thread because the author *thinks* it will be true one day.

Halo 4 is big no doubt. But according to VGC numbers, its isn't big enough to outsell all PS3 exclusives. That's why when Sales2099 realized this, he made a desperate attempt to save face by bringing irrelevant things like reviews into the mix. I've lost all respect for the guy. Dude has no integrity

I think the OP's intention was already shown when he -

Still insists that Halo 4 outsold every PS3 exclusive of 2012 combined - he has just made it so it is now 70+ rating.

Calls PS3 exclusives that sell less as shovelware.

Why do you think I am upset? Prologue is a demo for GT5. Horizon is a full Forza game, at full price, not a demo or a prologue for another game.


A demo that you had to buy which is why it is included in GT series sold.  You can't count something for being sold but then say no you can't count it for a score, that is a double standard.  On a side note I never did understand why Prologue sold so well lol  Really does show you how big the series is that they can get away with selling that for $40 and be successful haha
