Some pleople love to argue for the sake of arguing...Forza 2 did 350K in week one, and since that time, the 360's base has almost doubled, not to mention that Forza 3 looks to be a very highly rated game over as compare the to last one, which did great as well.  So, I'm not a racing fan, but most people who got it have enjoyed it.

9.2 not too bad considering Uncharted 2 got a 9.3?

Gametrailers do make the best reviews IMO.

And keep in mind forzas 1st week will only cover on day in others. So 600k is impossible IMO

^ Did you know that there is a mail strike in the UK? Sucks for people who ordered through mail, there might be a lot of pre-orders canceled so that they can buy it day one.

true.

Fable II sold 3.15 million and might cross 4 million in late 2010 (when Fable III releases). If this is not a major franchise, the PS3 has only seen 5 major franchises this gen. (GTA IV, CoD 4, CoD 5, MGS 4 and Assassins Creed) The other games who crossed 3.15 million on the PS3 did so because of bundles.

Forza is a great franchise. It sold 4 million with bundles. Without bundles probably around 2.5 million. And it looks like Forza 3 will easily pass 2.5 million. I mean Forza 2 did outsell games like LBP (bundled) or Resident Evil (bundled) on the PS3 even without the bundles. I think this is a great success for Turn10 and MS.

I really don't get this denying. There are still people on the internetz who just don't accept that MS is established in the gaming industry and so is their software.

I did not count Gears, because MS do not own the ip.

^^ Sales aren't everything, or so we are told all the time, as if Sony makes these games for the pure joy of game making...lol.

i just watched the GT review, they said video editor is missing? will that be in the retail game!

Turn 10 never said that there is a video editor. You upload the videos then use your prefered editing software to make a video.
