@PuppetMaster Nice try, its only the EU charts, not the US charts, if it were on both charts then you might had something,

I'll be the first to admit that this time, GT7 is better than Forza Motorsport (I have no idea how they fudged FM so badly) but the market for simulation games in general is milqutoast compared to arcade racers,

@Jacko11 Because Forza is factually better, Gran Turismo is a terrible game that's way past its hay day and can't even break the top 25 most played games on PS5

Not only will Forza Horizon 5 sell more on PS5 than GT7 but it'll also have a massively bigger player count

Playground are simply far more talented than Polyphony, and Drive Club the game that was so bad it killed its own studio

it is what it is

@Ravix They'll buy Forza Horizon 5 as Playstation lacks any quality racers

@Savage_Joe Yeah I always say Microsoft became the dominant publisher at the cost of throwing its own console in the trash

People who play on Xbox are the ultimate losers out of all of this

Playstation gamers are getting virtually every non Nintendo game, Microsoft will make bank, Sony will make bank off their 30% cut

Xbox gamers get a console with no exclusives and instead get a Game Pass price increase....

@Savage_Joe Phil never begged him lol, Bungie wanted too much and Phil told them to fk' off, Bungie tried shopping around and Sony were the only ones willing to buy them for that price

The problem is Sony doesn't have the mega franchises or powerful IP to compete with Microsoft and Nintendo,

Nintendo: Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Animal Crossing

Microsoft: COD, Diablo, Minecraft, Fallout,

Sony: ....maybe Destiny 2 which is on a massive decline now

This isn't a console thing because its obvious MS is going full third party/multiplat,

its a company thing, Sony can't build or even buy mega franchises

@DennisReynolds Literally everything you listed is a 3rd person action adventure game, maybe I should be more broad in my description with the sad dad simulator,

What I will say is that shooters and Sony mix together like coffee and water, and that they should probably stop at this point

@naruball Not really but I think Sony should stick to what they do well, new Astro Bot game looks neat at least but shooters, specifically FPS ...that ain't it chief

Microsoft is giving us a new Doom game....Sony is giving us...this monstrosity....I think this really shows how lacking Sony first party quality is when it comes to anything that isn't an over the shoulder walking dad simulator
