Biased!!
Both other games also have that, but Mario Kart at least has the ability to have 2 wheels.

ZoddGutts said:Yeah but it could have done much better. Heck Little Big Planet sold more than that in the same amount of time, it sold 215,000 in four days and that's with the PS3 hacing a userbase less than half of Xbox 360. heh

People were calling that game a "bomba" what does that make Forza 3 in comparison?

Mario kart
+ best gameplay (its fun)
+ best graphics (bright colours equal fun)
+ best sound effects and happy music
+ encourages friendship and teamwork
+ wide range of ethnically open characters
+ inspired by socialism
+ Best sales
Gran Turismo
+ Cars have 4 wheels
- encourages hatred and deceitfulness
- jews did 9/11
- Incredibly inspired by capitalism - does not sure the negative aspects of capitalism
Forza
+ You can draw penises on cars
- You'll get banned for having a penis on your car
- tries to portray immigration as a bad thing
- Incredibly inspired by capitalism - does not sure the negative aspects of capitalism

I've never claimed to own a 360.

What?skyfinch said:Well, either way, I'm certain that the "definitive racing game of this generation" has managed to outsell a Prologue in the same about of time.

must be why forza released first in europe.Lion Heart said:GT is also least reliant on the American buyers, Forza is MOST reliant on the US buyers.

And so it might. But that's not indicative of lifetime sales at all between titles such as Mario Kart and GT where they sell massively at the beginning due to other regions and constantly therefrom. Forza sold what, ~200k or something in the UK? Something like 30k in Japan and 175k in the US. GT5 alone will clear a million in its first month, mostly due to Japan and Europe. I agree that NA isn't the biggest market for racing games, maybe Nascar will help a little(Doubt it). But even so, that just swings things even more in the other two's favour.skyfinch said:From the numbers I can find (don't know what it sold over PSN), Prologue sold 224,000, in 14 days. I'm positive that Forza 3 has managed to go past those numbers in its 14 days.
good move, but you still said you owned a 360 and then hated on the popular game released at the time but this was awhile agoShurs said:Edit: I'm being overly harsh. There's obviously something wrong with you. I think it's time I slowly back away.

I fail to see what the argument here is. Many games are called "bombas" for not selling 1million out the gate(Insert PS3 exclusives here) but go on to sell millions after bundles and so forth. I don't think anybody is saying that Forza as a series is a failure commercially, F2 sold 3mil+ last time I checked.
However, GT will sell even more than F3 first month NPD and continue to sell well, 500k+ isn't unralistic. I can see it reaching 6m+ rather quickly if a "demo" as many called it around here cleared 4m+ in 1.5 years.
Forza isn't a bomba, it's competitive. But in sales? It's not definitive.

I will put up my account that you said what I said. I searched your history and I can only go back 3 months. what you said was a year ago or more. so I'm asking a mod if they have past history beyond 3 months without deleteing stuff. I remember it was around the forza 2 time, so maybe 2 years ago. maybe in proving I'm right, I will get banned since banned bets are a no-no, so do I step back and say no ban bet and not get banned but look like I'm lying, or take you bet which might get banned when I win for taking a banned bet? what to do, take the bet and get banned, not take the banned, but look wronged..... hmmmmShurs said:I'd be willing to put up my GAF account against yours if you can prove that I have claimed that I own a 360. What do you say?
I've certainly stated that I was considering picking one up, and I still am. I almost snagged one at Walmart last weekend when they had the $100 girft card deal, but I picked up a TV instead.
