If only there was a reason for the "low" sales of GT6, comparatively speaking. The reason being it was stupidly released on PS3 after the PS4 had released. It still managing 5 million in sales with such a hurdle means that you're grossly underestimating what the first GT on PS4 will sell.
This works both ways. People are grossly underestimating how much of a hurdle is the fact that people will need to purchase a specific wheel and PS Plus to play GTS properly.
Sure, most of the userbase is made up of casuals who don´t go online, i can accept this just for argument, but them again, what´s the focus of GTS? Online and competition, two things that require both the wheel and the subscription.
I´m sorry but this is the same BS we had before GT6, that sales would be phenomenal because of userbase and stuff.
People are in for a rude awakening. A lot has change since GT5 and most people have moved on and just don´t care that much anymore. That helps to explain GT6 selling half of what´s normal for a mainline GT entry.
And sales do matter. It´s a pain to have this great Assetto Corsa sim o PC and most nights there´s nobody to play with because it´s either friends leagues or one or two car lobbies.
The ease of use of a game like Call of Duty where you can always hop in and get a good online match is something these games dream of.
As for the Forza x Pcars variety debate, based on what we know Pcars has less cars but more variety because it covers different types of touring cars, older series, open wheelers... and most importantly it has the rules of each of those series to go with. I still don´t know if Forza will have this, and i have to see the complete car list to see if more cars equal more variety.
I´m really trying to be sold on Forza after the disappointment of Apex, but so far i haven´t seen anything that could make me change my mind.
