She's the town bicycle. Look she just finished off the wii in the backround :P

Yeah, she thinks Mario Kart is the best racing game.

 

 

 No she just likes to be tag teamed by the brothers. Nothing to do with racing :P

Well, when Gran Turismo 5 is released, we'll know then. For the entire gaming market, including Europe and Japan, the answer is Gran Turismo. As far as this gen, the present, Halo has seen it's sequel, so right now Halo is on top.

So my final answer, by the end of the gen, it will be Gran Turismo

 

i have to disagree if only b/c i think all racing games are bunk

 

its just eh same thing over and over

 

not that halo is that original or anything but given teh choice b/t a FPS and a car sim i know which i will pick

Gran Turismo is still more popular then Halo even if GT5 manages to sell less then Halo 3. I do agree with other on this thread that Halo is now more popular then GT in North America but world wide GT still is more popular.

Sales wise? Yes GT is more popular
worldwide appeal? Yes GT is more popular

Sales in America? Probably Halo.

Gran Turismo is and always has been more popular, and it will be unless GT5 sells less than 10 million LTD, which won't happen.

It is THE racing game.

This fella says otherwise.

He believes HE is THE racing game.

 

 

I thought GT was THE driving simulator and racing was more of a hobby for the title, while Mario clearly takes racing seriously, not even hesitating to ram Luigi (or whatever he's called - the green one).

 

Dude.... Fail.

 

How exactly does not knowig for sure a character name fail... dude.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

If GT5 is going to pull in those GT3 numbers or even beat Halo 3, it's going to need to do it with a slow burn, and probably some hefty bundling. Halo 3 was so frontloaded that there's no way GT5 will even look like it can outsell Halo 3 for quite a while, because it can't measure up to those first few weeks Halo 3 had.

 

I can agree with this mostly.  I highly doubt GT5 is going to be as front loaded as Halo 3 was.  Regardless, looking at the series I don't know how an objective person CAN'T come to the conslusion that a full Gran Turismo game won't sell well.  I mean the lowest Gran Turismo game in the series (Counting only full versions) sold 9.37 million copies. 

And again,  that was the 2nd Gran Turismo on the same system.  A trend that has occurred throughout the Gran Turismo series.

To put it simply, if Gran Turismo doesn't sell 9,000,000 + copies it will be a first for the series.  Smart money says bet on Gran Turismo 5 (Especially if they add crash damage,etc) selling on 9,000,000 + copies. 

 

Gran Turismo (Original) only sold around 4 million in America and went on to sell around 10.5 Lifetime.  Which I think is certainly reasonable to acquire this gen.

Only blind fanboys will think otherwise...

Wow i looked at your sig and couldn't help but notice just how pathetic it is, lol damn dude.  But read through what everyone has argued, because both parties have extremely good points.

 

WOW dude I looked at your sig I beat Halo 2 and I say Halo series is way over hyped, it just an average FPS (Half Life, Call of Duty, Bioshock says hi!) does that mean I'm crap at halo...dude don't you realize how pathetic your sig is lol

OT : Halo is only popular in America, but we're talking world wide rremember???

Sorry to break it to you but Gran Turismo wins...easily!

Obviously you haven't played online then...

And i was talkin about you saying MS only has 4 exclusivs after you take out first party games, which is downright retarded imo.
