although I don't own a 360 here, forza 3 is probably the most complete racing game out of those choices It gets me vote. next year GT5 will own and for also until gt6 :P

ABizzel16039d ago

That's exactly why Forza won. It wasn't the best at everything, but it great at everything it did, and it had so many options and things to do besides racing.

RockmanII76039d ago

Paradise came out in 2008, The Ultimate Box is the GoTY version except it never won any GoTY awards. Forza should win.

ABizzel16038d ago

The Ultimate Box was the only other good, highly praised, rated, and high profile racing game in 2009.

TenSteps6038d ago

I'd choose Dirt over Shift but then again I only played both at a friends.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing31d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit31d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing31d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9231d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
