That's true in general, but not for racing games. NFS: Rivals sold vastly better in Europe than in USA, and racing games are becoming more and more niche in North America. Europe is the decisive factor.


Still think that it doing great in North America will mean it will sell the most.  Plus since its a Ubisoft game means it will be cheaper faster so people that are on the fence will buy it sooner.  Plus there is a change that it will become so cheap faster that even people that had no plans on buying it will give it a go.  Like with Watchdog on XBL on the X1 right now if you have Gold you can get it for $14.99.

$15? Wow, that's one heck of a deal. If The Crew mostly at a lower price, I guess calling it the winner of this sales race isn't fair. Still I guess it will sell the most in USA since its setting is the USA.

But however we need to remember that Project Cars is a simulation racer and hence is likely to be the best-seller in Europe by far, which would overcome any advantage The Crew has in North America.

For me its Forza Horizon 2 no doubt. This is the best among the list so far.

You can't call it the best until you've played every one of those. Anyways this thread isn't about picking a favourite, its about picking the one which you think will sell the most on PS4 + XB1.

Project CARS will sell the most on PC's since there is almost no hype for the console version.  The people that are most hyped about it are the people that play the beta version on the PC and I doubt many of those will buy a console version of the game.  A lot of people that played the beta version of the Crew on their PC will probably end up getting it on a console.

Project Cars will sell a lot because its a sim and sim racers sell a lot on consoles. However I don't know if it'll sell the most.

Anyways what you said about The Crew does not make much sense. People who play the beta on PC will likely get it on the same platform.

Well I know at least two people that played the beta on PC but will get the console version.

I think you need to look at the pre order numbers again The Crew will sell a lot more it already has a solid lead its multi platform.  Ubisoft knows how to advertise their games plus Ubisoft games get cheap pretty fast so people on the fence about it will buy it sooner then later.  Plus the digital version will probably be on sale like Watchdog is right now for $14.99 so even people that had no plans on ever buying it will buy it at that price.

For what reason exactly? I mean, if their PC can play The Crew just fine at higher graphics setting there is no need for them to buy it on a console.
