Since Forza is gonna have its own show on SPEEDtv, Forza stands to grab a whole lot more casuals this time around. We'll see what this means for other series (GT and PGR specifically).

SpeedTv? :?OXIIIIXO
SpeedTv? :?OXIIIIXOWhat's your point? Casuals watch it. It may not be that great of a channel (I only watch it for SuperBikes, motorcycles pwn all :lol: ) but a whole lot of casuals watch it. So much so, Microsoft was sponsoring NOPI Tunervision last time I checked with the XBOX 360 branding.
1 million sales for the original isn't that much.You seem like you know so I'll ask, how did the other series sell with their previous incarnations?
I personally think it will sell around the same...they should have change the title and not have a "2" in it.

Casuals only watch Real World on MTV, it's a medical fact.

My, point is that most casuals don't watch speedtv, yes there are a few and yes some might go out and get Forza 2, but I don't think it's gonna be that manny to make a big difference

You say MOST casuals, ie most non gamers that don't care about much cars (your MTV comment). I was talking about the group of non gamers who like cars, some enough to watch a channel that shows nothing but the stuff. There is no ownage to claim. You fail. This show will be another place to showcase the game to people who like cars. The other series won't have nearly as much air time and will only reach tv on commercials, game reviews, and other spots where it will only see less then 2 mins maximum. Forza has 30 mins of time to get in about 3-4 ads for the game itself, not to mention the show itself may be enough to spark interest.[QUOTE="OXIIIIXO"][QUOTE="Ultimas_Blade"][QUOTE="OXIIIIXO"]What's your point?

Ok, next time say it like that, don't lable them as casuals, yet.OXIIIIXOThought it was implicit. You know, game w/cars, channel w/cars, and a show w/cars that has the same name as a game...casuals that would watch the show..... Do you see where that is going? And what was the 'yet' for?
BTW that was not a stab at you.

Go read your posts again, you labled them as casuals.
I think that first time gamers are more likly to become casuals than anything else, that's all.
1 million sales for the original isn't that much.

WTF? 1 million is great for a 1st game in the series. And Forza was the best racer last gen for consoles. Why would they change the name?
