Forums - Gaming - Racing Genre Doomed??

Seems like Forza only sells multimillions if it is bundled. GT series is quickly dying off. GT6 sales went down 80% from GT5 sales. Need for speed series is in decline. Burnout no where to be found.Motorsport is dead, so is PGR. Like seriously guys the genre is doomed! Mario Kart will flop because there arent any wii U's out there I believe Granturismo, Forza, and Mario Kart will always exist but it seems like if the games don't have a giant budget they will instantly flop like a dying fish. Who's with me??

agreed, general



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

After seeing the improvements Forza 5 has made over last gen, I sure as hell hope not.



The racing genre was doomed as soon as Evolution decided to do a boring car jerkfest like Driveclub instead of another awesome next gen Motorstorm.

I will definetely buy a Forza game on the Xbox One when they add day/night cycle and more cars/tracks into the retail disk. I'll probably buy forza 6

People would be stupid to buy it since it's gonna be on PS+ and on ps4 everyone has PS+ for multiplayer...

They'd rather buy another game

Motorstorm 4 would sell 10 gazillion copies.

Yeah Id like to see that evolve in Forza. But from a driving perspective, and SIngle player perspective its a big jump from Forza 4. There is some tings missing Id like to return, but it is the best Forza game by some way from gameplay and feel of racing.

I play currently with Drivatar AI on Highly Skilled. After 20 hours Driving time my Drivatar is only at 45% complete. Its also track specific. If Im not as good at a track my Drivatar is equally no as good.



F Zero can save the genre
