I bet Modern Warfare 2 outsells ODST

oh by the way... crashes are not a variable in term of simulation.... I mean you are not suppose to crash anyway.... i'm talking strictly about the driving experience... then again even if i doubt of the superiority of GT5 on that point (from past experience of course)... whatever will be true (GT5 being better or forza being better) it won't be by much AT ALL...

He's calling Polyphony Digital out, and using some dry "humor" in a sense to do it. I don't really see a big deal, even though it was unneccesary, but really...we've seen this done many times before, one developer that's the laughing stock of the industry despite great previous games is 3D Realms for their constant delaying of Duke Nukem. PD has taken 5 years, yea...that warrants some calling out.

What's your point exactly? A better comparison would be Halo 3 or Halo: Reach, and you know it. Yet another example of a crappy comparison you can expect to find on VGChartz. The only valid comparison right now is Halo 3, and MW 2 is likely to come on the short end of that, or at least the 360 version is.

AlkamistStar> they started in 2006! after tourist trophy!
They also released GT Prologue, GT HD, GT PSP in 3 years??!!

They released 4 games in 3 years and you slag gt who released 2 games which are pretty much the same game play wise?

This is the kind of misinformation ms loves to spread and xbots lap it up without even checking the facts.

Dude stop listening to lies by MS PR
if you want to blame anyone blame sony, for hyping it so early.

Why not?

They will both be the latest games released in the series.

People compared ODST to Killzone 2, people compare GT5: Prologue to Forza 3. I don't see the difference here.

It is a fair comparison, i could make it worse though if i wanted... And count the PS3 version of MW2 also.

So you compare MW2 with a Halo spinoff title...cmon Carl, that was just desperate, lol

Ha, no it's not. It would be a major disappointment if Modern Warfare 2 did not outsell ODST. You're the one who was bitching about the Prologue comparisons to Forza 3 (which by the way, is a more legitimate comparison than this one because Prologue is the only Gran Turismo title that's been released on the PS3), and now you come in here and use that to justify this comparison? Hypocritical much?

Yes it would. But it will outsell it, and by a lot.

You seemed to be okay with KZ2 and ODST comparisons. Why not this one?

They are the latest games released in each series. I don't see the problem.

Ok... so you want "research"....but didn't do any yourself. Now who's, misinformed?

Here...your research from Wikipedia.

"The game was first revealed at E3 2006 under the name Vision Gran Turismo. In an April 2008 interview, game creator Kazunori Yamauchi revealed that 150 people had worked on Gran Turismo 5 for Three years, with all of Polyphony Digital's 120 employees working on GT5, and the game costing 50 times more to develop than 1997's Gran Turismo.^[4]

At Sony's E3 2009 Press Conference, a trailer for Gran Turismo 5 was shown, revealing both the inclusion of NASCAR and WRC but no release date was revealed.^[5] In an interview with Eurogamer, Kazonuri Yamauchi said that "We've actually reached a point where we can probably release it [GT5] anytime, except that you can also keep working as long as you want to as well, it's just a matter of timing."^[6] According to the official magazine at Tokyo Game Show 09, Gran Turismo 5 is 65% complete."

I was wrong for saying it'd be in development for 5 years, however it will be over 4 years and some months since development. As for the "xbot" thing...yea, i'll let that slide. They didn't "start" in 2006, they revealed, development was started in 2005. JAPANESE release date scheduled for March 31, 2010, with the North America, and European dates being announced at a later date.
