Except forza isn't more popular. They just release way more.

As far as profitable you're just talking out of your ass. None of us are privy to budgets and profits.

Neither do we know the size of the studios. I've seen polyphony listed at 100-140 employees and turn 10 is unknown. I've read 150,300,even 450.

The fact is you nor any of us know how much money they make.
One more time.

1 game, 3 years 5 mil

Or

3 games, 3 years, 10 mil

The fact the company uses thing like unique users instead of sales says everything that needs to be said.

This whole gen Microsoft has been using nonsense pr language like that to cover up the truth underneath.
Most publishers are moving away from direct sales numbers.

From an investor standpoint, persistent user count is much more important than initial sales counts.

Once again.

You can tell an investor.

1 games, 3 years, 5 mil.

3 games, 3 years, 10 mil.

Which one do the investors go for?

An investor would say those numbers are incomplete information . What's the budget on each game? What's the profit margin on the sales? Were they sold at a discount or full price?

You're trying to simplify something that can't be.

An investor gives not one single fukk about pr spin. They want facts.

BTW for all the bullshyt in here I am actually closer to Meach's side on this long winded argument. I don't know what the fukk Sony/Polyphony are doing with this damn franchise anymore. Takes forever to come out and it is not even the premier racing game anymore. Hasn't been for about 10 years tbh once Forza 2 dropped.

So from the info available we can't say much about either?

I'm good with that :ehh:
