More like you know I'm right and you have no counter argument. Typical. :roll:

GloriousNippon

right on Forza well lets go

Outscored GT..check

Has actual decent damage modelling..check

Actually doesnt have bout 60 diffrent variants of 1 car which is completely uneccesary..check

Better campaign/single player..check

Didnt nerf the Top gear portion of the game to the most basic form imaginable..check

All cars fully modelled..check

Better online functionality...definately.

1. Primitive western taste. GT is too complex for the ocean of casuals.

2. PD only does perfection. We are a long ways from realistic damage physics so why bother?

3. Some of us enjoy CONTENT.

4. Again, maybe for casuals.

5. Maybe you should actually play it.

6. Premium cars.

7. Opinion.

That´s...certainly very interesting lol.

1. Primitive western taste. GT is too complex for the ocean of casuals.

played near enough 100h of GT5 and have setup at least 6 cars for drift,drag and the ring , far from the casual racer as you can get so dont even attempt calling me casual.

2. PD only does perfection. We are a long ways from realistic damage physics so why bother?

wouldnt call res'd up PS2 cars perfection just more filler and no killer.

3. Some of us enjoy CONTENT.

Having 60 diffrent skylines with minor trim diffrences is seen as worthy content? dont think so, thats just the ultimate lets pad our car list to make it seem like we have more.

4. Again, maybe for casuals.

An actual single player thats fun to play and well thought out unlike GT mode which has aged horribly.

5. Maybe you should actually play it.

Owned GT5 since launch.

6. Premium cars.

A whole 200 cars, Forza 4 has near enough 400-500 fully modelled cars interior and exterior.

7. Opinion.

GT5 was a shambled for near enough the first month at launch its only really started working.

Probably around 50 games a year or so. About half are DD and brand new retail games and the other half are used.

Probably something around 10, but 70~80% are steam sales of either old games or promotions and downloadable titles.

Man, a lot you guys are no-lifing losers. Who in the hell buys over 50 games a year and has time to play them all?

Move out of your parent's basements and get jobs and social lives, you socially awkward nerds.

Haiyama

coming from the one with the troll face avatar.

Pot meet kettle.

Go out more than most people been to over 150 gigs in the past 5 years.Hardly socially awkward either, most people on this forum are normal folks who's hobby just happens to be gaming then we've just got imbeciles with low level accounts going herpy mc derp all over this place.

Used to buy more, but now maybe 4-5 games per year.

I don't like to feel rushed.

In 2011, I bought over 100 new or used games for PS3, 360, Wii, 3DS, PSP, and DS. Another 30+ SNES games. Maybe 15 PC games on Steam. But that's because I got the PS3 last year, so 70 of those games are building a PS3 collection. In a normal year, 50 - 75. I play about 20% of the games.

Over the past 12 months, I bought 9 games plus 4 more I received as presents. Between work, classes, and family, I barely have time to play and finish them all.

Also: I don't count the games I bought for my kid which is easily double of mine.

Too many since I've barely scratched the surface of Skyrim and although many, many, many hours of Forza 4 there remains so much left to do and yesterday on impulse I picked up a cheap copy of SC:Conviction not to mention many other games I have yet to fully complete. :cry: :P

New games that came out that year? Maybe 2 or 3

That has a lot more to do with Steam than anything though since I bought a crap load of older, cheaper games.

As far as "new" games go, maybe 8 or 9. Everything else is some older game.

I don't play games as much as I used to, yet I buy more games. You just gotta shop smart. It is a very very very rare occasion where I buy a full priced games. Price drops come fast--or amazon has sales regularly--so it makes things easier. Heck, I waited a month to get Uncharted 3 because I just knew that the black friday craze would blow the price down to $30, and it did.

You really have to put some parameters for this poll to work.

If you allow for every pissant indie game and app to count as a "game" you're going to get these ridiculous numbers, or if you allow for older games to count (since you can pick up a ridiculous amount of PC games for under $5, as well as older console games for < $1).

If you made it "new games in 20XX" you'd get a more interesting/consistent gauge.

But yeah, if I could count back when I was collecting NES games I could be all "I BOUGHT 50 GAMES IN A DAY!!!!!!"

Agreed, i dont buy games day 1 anymore unless their pretty rare or cant wait to play them, amazon is a great place to get new games at a cheap price agreed.

Resisitance 3 seem to be killing it out there at amazon, its been on the top 5 for a week now since its 50% down in price at amazon only

I only buy 2 or 3 games that come out said year.

I mostly buy older games. This year I'll be playing a lot of last year's releases when they come down in price.

Probably about 10 to 15 total.

Last year? A couple hundred at least, taking advantage of steam sales and bundles. Normally? 25ish.
