And I'm sure that figure doesn't include the shipping and manufacturing costs, or the advertising. Blaze-Agent

well your guess is just as good as mine as to what those numbers mean. However, the dev costs for the game was already more than likely recouped by the release of Gt5 prologue.

Oh, definitely, and especially so after GT5 released considering how much of a sales success that was.

[QUOTE="The_Game21x"]

Could've fooled me. Aside from the slightly better driving physics and (arguably) better graphics, Forza had GT5 beat in just about every way.

well except what matters to most publishers...SALES SALES SALES> however most gamers find simulation racing tedious. Hence the reason NFS HP outsold forza 3..(Forza 3 was heavily bundled in most places, NFS was not)

Sorry bro, but I don't play sales. Forza 3 was the better game of the two in my eyes (as well as in the eyes of most critics) and, as a gamer and not a shareholder in either Turn 10 or Polyphony Digital, that's what I care about. :)

Besides, Forza 3 sold somewhere around 4 million. I'm sure Turn 10 is happy with that.

well not to take away from the sales but its really easy to say something sold so great when it was bundled for most of its release in EU and US till date. A luxury that Gt5 is yet to enjoy. Still great sales though. But anything thats bundled for such a long period of time will sell.

Does not stop the genre from being completely tedious however.

either way it does not matter how much itcost. The glorified demo already paid for that, not to talk of all the advertising they do for car companies and such (by being a featured vehicle in the game itself). The game has paid for itself over and over several times already.

well you were questioning the validty of the $80M, so it obviosuly does matter to you, don't try to turn this into something else.

When will people on this board realize you can't compare these two games? Turn 10 is leaps and bounds ahead of GT5 in every category except 1 (track surfaces) and if the Nurnburgring GP DLC track was any indication of what we are to expect for FM4 they may have fixed this too. GT isn't even in the same class anymore (and that pisses me off a little, GT used to be my favorite series ever).

Perfectionist and procrastinator. By than, a possibly forza 5 on the Next Generation xbox might of been revealed.

I don't think it really excuses anything. He had plenty of time.

We honestly I doubt he could have made it more fun in that 2 extra years. I had fun when I got it around Christmas, but going back to it today the game seems like a complete bore fest. And the fact that I got G27 along with it makes me feel bad for my parents who bought it for me.

[QUOTE="EliteM0nk3y"]

[QUOTE="gaming25"] "Only" 200 cars. Does that sound like "only" to you? Thats a lot.gaming25

Compared to the 1000 cars it has, yes it's "only". Forza 3 has 400.

What if it had 10,000 cars and 500 premium cars? You dont have to play with the standard cars, whether it is 10, or 10,000.

It doesnt have 10k cars though..
