It won't even hit a mil. No one will care and it will flop harder than Sorcery

So sad to see a wish like this go to waste. This world is so cruel

eh, probably not. ..unless ps4 is outselling xbone by at least a 2:1 ratio which i don't think is likely.

Ohhhhh Kitler... it is happening you know the 2:1 was true.

Well over a year passed and it is time to use the still innacurate data to make the first preview.

Week Forza 5 DriveClub Difference
1 314,012 357,755 +43,743
2 112,200    
       
Total 1,534,864 357,755 -1,177,109

DriveClub had a really good start... for now everything is happening like I predicted.

Yeah sales are pretty good considering the low reviews and it being a new IP.(and the server issues)

Update time.

Week Forza 5 DriveClub Difference
1 314,012 357,755 +43,743
2 112,200 111,246 -954
3 75,749    
       
Total 1,534,864 469,001 -1,065,863

After the first week  DriveClub drop was bigger than Forza 5 and now they are tied... next week will be fun to see if DriveClub drop will continue to be bigger.

The drop is not weird if you account that Forza 5 was launched in holidays.

The difference now is close to 1 million.

lulz.

 

you're still going to lose though.  i can't believe how much of a disaster driveclub's launch was.  i still want to try it but i'm firmly waiting for the free ps+ version.  2015 you think?

C'mon DriveClub you can show better numbers... I know Forza 5 sales were from December but it can't be used like excuse... you need to show you will be a 3+ million game.

I disagree. Forza games don't front-load well but the games always have legs. I think PS fans are completely turned off on DriveClub at this point. I also think Mario Kart 8 will outsell both of them quite easily.

Forza games never had legs... they have bundles that make some games reach 5 million units.

It is a 3+ million franchise when you have a good userbase... with Xbone it will be luck if reach 2 million without be free with bundles.

DriveClub will sell over 3 million (maybe 5 million) due PS4 userbase... just look at Motorstorm.

Week  Forza 5 DriveClub Difference
1 314,012 364,250 +50,238
2 112,200 113,883 +1,683
3 75,749 65,924 -9,825

5 126,630    
       
Total 1,555,492 585,788 -969,704

 

DriveClub was ajusted up in all weeks.

Forza 5 numbers are mid of December... it will drop a lot in two weeks while DriveClub even had the first BF or December.

It will be one of my easiest prediction... it can happen this year already.

I'm sad because I guessed this prediction could ended interesting and challenging... I don't like easy predictions
