So what?
Everyone knows Halo is more front loaded, GT has the better legs usually. Halo is a bigger name now anyways.
It's just that simple.

Halo 3 had the luxury of being released early on in the 360s life. Halo 4 has potentially 1 Year until a new generation of Xbox. I think it will severely cut the potential legs of Halo 4.

HIs sig does not make sense. Again, see below.
Your sig makes less nonsense than mine? Okay? Fine, but it's still nonsense. Forza 4 + Horizon LTD: 4.77m GT5 LTD: 8.62m There is no comparison here. |
Since you are putting Halo 3: ODST in your sig, then put the origanal Halo 3 too, since they are practically the same game.

And defending his nonsense and calling it valid and now you're refusing to acknowledge that after finally realizing how stupid of a comparison it is.

The legs of Halo depend on the legs of the Xbox 360 and perhaps even the Xbox Next if the game is forwards compatible. New console purchasers associate the game with the system like they do with GT and to a greater extent Mario with Nintendo. In any case big games like Halo/Call of duty invariably have legs as new console purchasers buy them regardless of how many existing fans get them.
Tease.

You do realize that tons of people still played Halo 2 on their 360 same think will happen with the 720 and Halo 4 even if its not backwards compatiable since a digital version or a enhanced version will be available close to the launch. Anyway Halo 4 will soon be available on games on demand so we will never know its true sales number since those numbers aren't available to the public.

LMAO LMAO LMAO
No no no. He uses time frames and I've stated this numerous times and I have already said GT is a bigger franchise but maybe you can't read well I don't know. Using his comparison it would go something like this
Forza-2008-2013
GT - 2008 - 2013
That would be specific timelines with two series that has potential of selling very well this generation. Not a game like Killzone that can't even out sell a game that is an expansion. In fact Anniversary has sold similar to killzone and it is a remake. Halo Wars has sold similar to Killzone and it is a RTS. This is what I've been trying to explain to you. TIME FRAMES WITH SIMILAR SELLS. He is using Forza 3 and Forza Horizon in the time frame since Forza 4's release date which I will agree is not fair but it does show that Forza is successful. What he should do is use a time frame from both starting dates. For example sit Forza and GT side by side from both release dates.
Now disreagarding everything I just said he is using a business approach to things (IP sales). So at least understand what he is saying before making fun of him with your sig and making yourself loo childish at the same time.
And because I know you are only going to take all the bad from my comments and once again think Im agreeing with him, I DO NOT AGREE WITH HIM. Gran Turismo is a bigger game than Forza. Now as I said multiple times, stop quoting me.

warning
Yay!!!
