3 games which sold millions in the time of one GT game :hest: 

 

LMAO remember when GT5's used PS2 models for most of the cars in the game? :mj: 

All combined which is less than Gran Turismo Sport's total sales. Bomba Motorsport. :rofls:

Sony won't even announce GT Sport's sales, they moved to players, they've announced sales for every other GT game except this one.

I doubt it.

 

There's literally been 6 Forza games this gen that have sold over 3 million each. :| 

Link? Talking out of your ass isn't going to help you. It's been speculated that Forza Motorsport 7 didn't even surpass a million units just a year ago. Meanwhile, it's been leaked that Gran Turismo Sport is sitting somewhere over 5.3 million units just over a year ago. That Daniel Loeb hedge fund manager's meeting with Sony Corp. this year revealed 8 million units sold and 9 million players (est.).

Yea, there's no need to provide a link.  The 6 Forza games have that beat :facep:

No we actually back tracked that entire thing on Neogaf, like 20 people took part in it, and it was all a misconstrued player figure being represented as a sale figure.

No, actually it wasn't. The slide is very clear about this.

At the time of that slides release.

 

There's not even 8 million player profiles so give me a break, this is a third party estimation and it's not even close and the fact that they cite VGChartz for ANY data they arrive at which uses an algorithm for speculating sales is a tell all as to how they conduct their research. VGChartz data is banned here as far as I'm aware.

The reality is there's about 7.8 million profiles which realistically means this game has maybe sold 5 million, maybe, the fact that they haven't announced 5 million sales though is questionable because they were sure proud to announce 5 million player profiles. Most people have friends, and family and they play games together and GT has generally been a pretty communal multiplayer experience. Guess what if you ever want to or have played the game in multiplayer there's two profiles right there as the other person needs to sign into a second one, or if a family member or friend has their own profile and play the game solo there's another right there.

This is extremely common, no doubt 1/3 to 1/2 of those profiles are redundancies for a second or third person and so on.

Also nobody is fooled by anything you're saying, you're the guy who actually tried to push that GTS was a better looking game than Forza Horizon 4 by posting a bunch of photomode and scapes bullshit, never in game and there's a reason for that. Hell, you got so bad in that thread posting bullshit photomode stuff you were restricted from posting in it further.

Shu saying "Thanks!" also doesn't mean fuck all anything.

Shu acknowledging it is the closest confirmation we'll have for a while until Polyphony updates their site again. This is 100x better than hiding anything sales related like Microsoft has done for the past what... 4-5 years?

This was already dealt with, over, we ended the thread. Dead discussion. Shu saying "thanks" doesn't mean anything, we had the fucking number of total profiles available. 

 

The profiles actually are 8,412,723 https://www.jasonguernsey.net/gts/Drivers-By/Country

the 8 million sold is probably sold through

I REPEAT: I'm sorry for you and all the other GT haters, this is a huge ownage for all of you

 

You just owned yourself image.gif.efa2d2d73fdd35108da29c012bd0e634.gif You forgot to subtract the beta profile numbers, do that and you arrive at the amount of players I said it should be mathematically

 

-------------------------

 

No what's happened is as Matty said you forgot to subtract beta profiles and whatever idiot wrote this report looked at the profile count (which is near 8 millIon) and listed that as estimated game sales.
