MK8 must be the best game of all time then.

Damn... 2015 and still Driveclub vs. Forza.

If you're talking racers in the OP title, why not include Mario Kart 8, which is above both of them.... Chosen by the readers.

It may actually be due to the quality of Driveclub rather than userbase, as even PS4 users wouldn't have chosen Driveclub if it hadn't been good.

Also, the ones near and at the top are Wii U exclusives and we know how big the Wii U's userbase is.

I was highlighting the reader's list and comparing that with Eurogamer's reviews of both games, where Driveclub got 6 and Forza Horizon 2 got a 9. But the readers abssolutely disagree, which shows how terrible their reviews are.

MK8 was loved by both Eurogamer and its readers, so I didn't mention it since it isn't all that surprising.

There's no need to pick out two titles from the list in order to just cause trouble. The list is perfectly fine, and by all means point out the top game or the top three, but juvenile "X game > Y game" never ends well.

Having said that, overall it's a good list. Would have put Smash higher and Alien: Isolation lower, but can't complain with anything there really.

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Read my reply to Slade. You'll understand why I added that to the title.

Anyways, I'm not saying Driveclub is better than Forza Horizon 2, I like the latter a bit more myself even though I enjoy both the games.
