I was going to say. Forza didn't overtake shit. NFS has been garbage for a long time now. Dissolving Criterion was a big mistake on EA's part.
I wouldn't downplay Forza. It's IP is more valuable than Halo and Gears.

Forza is the #1 racing IP in the same way that whatever blockbuster released this week is the #1 movie in America.
You rate them based on how they're selling now, not how well they sold across history.
They actually don't need to disqualify Mario Kart for being a kart racer.Because the title doesn't say (nor does the article) that they are specifically talking about this gen exclusively. So Mario Kart doesn't count because it's a kart racer (weird but ok), and Gran Turismo doesn't count because there's been no gen 8 release yet. So essentially this is like when American sports franchises call their trophy victors "world champions". So play by yourself and crown yourself king.
So should we count MK when deluxe comes out?They actually don't need to disqualify Mario Kart for being a kart racer.
The current generation consists of the PS4, XB1, and Switch, and this article was published in March.
I don't think any racing game this gen has sold more than MK8. Maybe they mean all Forza's this gen combined?
If it is written current biggest racing IP, sure.
But it isn't.

You're not going to make it far in PR at this rate.Does it?
Wii U was Nintendo's console last generation. 3DS was Nintendo's handheld last generation. Switch is a clean break from both, so wouldn't it be the start of a new generation?
that is exactly what they said. at least meant
you guys just have to read it, correctly
I mean, Forza is rated e so no reason why the kids cant crack on all the assists and rewind and play it!
Why do you need numbers. This is coming straight from Microsofts mouth when they put out PR. They aren't lying when they make a statement like best selling racer this gen.People always say Forza surpassed this or that franchise without providing hard numbers to prove it most of the time. I am pretty sure the last NFS did over 2.5 million.

"I get asked a lot about competitors and the genre and what have you. [For us] there's hardly any inspiration coming from that space - it's all coming from our longer term vision."
Well...that's not really fair for four reasons:How many units has GT shifted on the current gen, how many units has Forza shifted on current gen.
Mental gymnastics I know, but...........

Are people gonna read the article also? There is some nice insight in that.

Don't be silly. Why would anyone do that when they could just read the title and complain about that instead.
Thanks for being a great poster, Theorry. I always look forward to reading your posts and threads.
That's not hard to be the biggest racing IP. NFS hasn't been great since Need for Speed Most Wanted(2005).

Who is the 'biggest' football team in the world?
Man Utd
Real Madrid
Barcelona
Bayern Munich
Juventus
What do you base the 'biggest' on? Date they were founded, number of trophies, average attendance, number of shirts sold, world wide reach, turnover of revenue, profits etc.
To be fair, its a mature of all of the above and much like Forza is selling the most, receiving the best scores, being one of the most played racers, having its own eSports gig etc I think the title is more than justified.
But, its a thread that puts an Xbox game against its peers and also brings the series' sales 'partly' into the discussion so of course it was going to turn into a shit show of a thread.
As for the article itself there were lots of neat insights into how T10 and Playground work and collaborate together, so it was a great read.
Thanks for posting it OP
They did. But some cars were given a unrealistic amount of gears.Did they ever add wheel and manual support to Underground 2015?

The performance of Horizon 3 fired the Forza franchise into that exclusive $1bn club, which it has achieved over 9 games and 11 years.
