I know GT5 fans keep screaming sales but with Japan not buying gt5 (16k in sales this week) and Forza 3 beating it despite being a year old can't we just agree GT5 is one of those European trends like Rugby or Fascism. :D

Meh if true it's probably counting in the fact that Forza 3 was included in the 360 bundle with Alan Wake.

You must be new to these parts, stranger, because around here we don't use no VG charts.

Ah, VGChartz. My friend sent me a link to VGChartz where it said Uncharted 3 would be on the 360 with Kinect support. There's your credibility of the site. ;)

Everyone who wanted it (read: GT fanboys) already bought it. It doesn't have the accessibility for lasting, mainstream appeal.

Just saying, a game that will likely sell 10+ million over its lifetime(already 6+) has lots of mainstream appeal.

Well I'm living in a small city so its normal to have games out of stock lol but still 2 mils copies on shelves (according to VGchartz) is just too much xD Sony isn't that stupid to overship the game like that.

Want to give me next week's lotto numbers? GT has a massive fanbase, especially in Europe. People have been expecting this game for years, and now its finally out. I don't doubt the majority of the sales for this game were mostly from the already established fanbase.

BTW, why hasn't anyone yet brought up the fact that, being a Platinum title, Forza 3 is currently half the price of GT??? If you were in a position where you had to choose, would you choose the $60 or $30 option??? Considering that, I'd think GT did pretty well.

Oh, and VGCHARTZ??? REALLY!?!?!?

I recently purchased Forza 3 a few months ago and I was really impressed with the whole package. The graphics, sound, and gameplay are all top notch. It is a substantial improvement over Forza 2, and I wish I would have picked it up earlier. It also is one of the best games that works with the wireless racing wheel. Need for Speed Shift is aweful when you hook up the wireless wheel.

There thousands of Gamestops... Thousands of Walmarts... Thousands of Targets... Numerous other stores... Im sure amazon has a very large stockpile... Not too mention the online warehouses for each of the other stores... And thats just the US... Its possible that close to 2million are sitting somewhere... If you count everything...

Yeah, yeah, "lolvgchartz", but what if it's true? :lol: Pretty sad, especially considering how much cows have been praising GT5's sales. They suddenly started mattering when a lot of GT5 reviews weren't matching/exceeding the hype, and then especially once the GS review rolled in. It used to be "I play games, not sales", "sales don't matter", etc...

That said, I doubt this report is true, but if it is... lol.

So in summary, the completely made up sales numbers of Forza 3 are beating the completely made up sales numbers of GT5, but only if you count only America. OK den...

It´s probably not true but i wouldnt be surprised if GT5 helped a bit in Forza3 sales. At least here on sw there have been lots of Forza3 threads since GT5 was released :twisted:

Man, I'm in Mississauga and I'm seeing Valkyria Chronicles everywhere. Not to long ago it was damn near impossible to find and if you did the price was very high.
