I'm just saying that less releases is actually in GT's favor.

Not necessarily

If two main entry GT's released this gen and both sold well, the average would be in GT's favour. But obviously that didnt happen



GT6 is coming out this year :O

 

I meant if they had already released by now :/

They would have made it in time for Pezus's comparison thread!

lol, what the hell? Weird comparing GT to such a relatively small franchise, it's almost like comparing Halo to Resistance + Killzone.

Uncharted: Golden Abyss wasn't released on generation 7 hardware (PSP) but the Vita, unless you think the Vita is going to die before the PS4 comes out, why are you including it? And GT5 Prologue & Gran Turismo PSP are both under-tracked by about 1 million+ each http://www.polyphony.co.jp/english/list.html .

That would put Gran Turismo at about 19.60 million during this generation vs 16.60 million Uncharted has sold. So just 1 proper GT console game, a demo and a crappy PSP game outsold the Uncharted trilogy. GT is just huge, after a few years of GT6 sales it'll be something like 28.60 million vs 17.20 million.

Did Vgchartz adjust the Uncharted series by the way? They are very accurate with its sales since just over a year ago Naughty Dog said the franchise has shipped 17.30 million which includes the Vita game http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2012-04-24-uncharted-franchise-hits-17-million-units-sold , selling through those shipments with another 300K on top is very accurate, well done Vgchartz, if only everything else was that accurate.

I like Uncharted more, but it's obvious that Gran Turismo

GT1 = 11m......U1 = 4.5m
GT2 = 10m.....U2 = 6.2m
GT3 = 15m.....U3 = 5.9m
GT4 = 12m
GT5 = 11m

Super KO..

The End...


Don't even need to use old Gran Turismo games.

  • Gran turismo 5 prologue:5.3m
  • gran turismo PSP:4.2 m
  • gran turismo 5:10.6m

Gran turismo:20.1m verus Uncharted:16.6m.

@OT:  I think it is hard to say between the two.  I would however say that Uncharted may be the biggest sytem seller that sony has had this generation though.  However Gran Turismo is the bigger brand and will likely end with around 22-25m by the end of PS3's lifetime.  Both are pretty monstrous though.  I think an Uncharted 4 will push more people into getting a PS4 than a GT6 would though.


Gran Turismo is the bigger system seller

More purchases per installment --> More loyal fans  --> More fans willing to buy a system for it --> Bigger system seller.

After looking at the numbers of each GT in Europe and Uncharted in America.  Both has played there importance but yes GT is overall a bigger game.

Here's the relevant info you need:

Generation 7 Total Date Titles Average Per Game Average Per Year
Uncharted 17.57M 2007 4 4.39M 2.93M
Gran Turismo 17.33M 2007 3 5.78M 2.89M

Uncharted wins 2 sales categories out of 3. Is it bigger than Gran Turismo?

Can't argue with numbers. Uncharted is now Sonys biggest IP. 



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Gran Turismo but Uncharted is far more fun and is just better



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Gran Turismo is probably the biggest AND most impressive 1st Party Franchise that doesn't come from Nintendo.

It survived and did amazing in this shooter driven Gen
And it isn't Casual - Its a Racing Simulator and not an arcade Racer.Far harder to do great with those factors.
Uncharted has a lot more Hollywood feeling and isn't as time intense.If you think about it it should appeal to a far wider audience.
Uncharted is the biggest and best NEW 1st Party franchise of this Gen but Gran Turismo is the King of all(except Nintendo stuff).
Naughty Dog owned this Gen though.
