Good list
And nicely spread out through the year as well.
Lots of diversity as well.
Good to a actually see an apples to apples comparison.
Pretty good sales curve really.
Looks like both consoles are selling exceptional well this gen
I guess rumours of console demise have been greatly exaggerated.
Edit @ reply, So you are telling me that the X1, selling in 42 Countries, is selling around the same rate a a last gen console that sold in over 100 Countries...yes that is VERY impressive. Thanks for pointing that out.
That is an interesting analogy.
Quote a score from 19 years ago.
I wonder how much competition there was 19 years ago to compare against?
I like your analogy, as what applies to Racing games must also apply to First Person Shooters.
I imagine I'll see you in Halo articles stating that Halo is the highest scoring First Person Shooter of all time.
Better yet, as Halo was released on this generation of conso...
First off, Tim is right, he made an apples to apples comparison, he did not cower behind an extra console generation, and he used consoles with similar sales (hey look Ford, around for over 100 years, sold more cars than Kia, what a surprise).
Let this sink in for bit.
As gamers waited 6 years for GT5 to come along and sell 10m+ games, and score an 84...
Other gamers enjoyed Forza 2 (91 on metacritic) selling 4m, Forza 3 (92) selling 5.5m, an...
While I could point out numerous tech that Forza has and others don't:
24 cars on track
60fps locked
tire deformation physics
tire heating cycles
Drivatars that aren't predictable like normal AI
3D puddles that can act on individual tires
Full customization, visual and performance
Damage, visual and performance
450+ cars
Well said
Some ppl see what they want to see, or in this case, put blindfolds on.
Why does the title reference exclusives then be followed up with a multiplatform game like No mans Sky in the sub text? Blindfolds again I guess.
Anybody with EA Access can play.
You also get a discount on any EA game if you decide to buy the game.

Nope
Just like the 360, the X1 is gaining momentum.
X1 beat 360 with just 1/3 of the Countries
X1 beat it every year so far now, as we approach year 3, as Gamestop has said, it is selling TWICE as fast as 360.
Edit
Your math isn't working; 14m is greater than 9.3m, and that's with just 13 Counties for the X1 for 11 months.
The Holidays (November, December) will yi...
"Probably"
Let's insert some facts into your averages.
The 360 sold 9.3m as of 30 sep 2007, well below the X1.
Gamestop is on record recently saying that X1 is selling at twice the rate of the 360.
Also it's not an apples to apples comparison as 360 launched in 36 Countries then quickly added 4 more, vs X1 launching in 13 Countries and adding 29 more almost a year later.
Quite impressive for...
You just gave yourself away...
Forza has ALWAYS allowed the gamer to set the game up to their own preference.
In Forza you can adjust from assists to full simulation on:
Steering
Braking
Traction Control
Stability Control
Vehicle damage
Driving line
Rewind
All can be turned off or on, or ANY combination.
For someone who is spamming the Forza articles you are spo...
Impressive numbers for a new platform, especially considering the genre.
Love the series
Happy trails

"Could you please tell me what Forza 6 offers more than other racing games, like Project Cars?"
We could go into tire deformation physics and tire heat cycles but the simplest answer comes from those who review the games:
PC...83
F6...88
Nicely detailed review.
It appears the overwhelmingly vast majority of reviewer agree.
F6 is definitely THE game for racers and driving enthusiasts.
No other realistic racing game this gen has scored as high as F6.
So Turn10 has set the bar this gen.
So funny when ppl suggest a game with a metacritic score of almost 90 is bad, ROFL.
Congrats Turn10 you have set the bar.
Great news
More choices and variety are always welcome.
You know I just noticed that the top 6 games are on X1...
And 8 out of the 10 are on x1 with a ninth on 360.
That's got to make X1 gamers, and MS very happy.
"The team has spreadsheets with comparison data on how long it takes to execute tasks on Xbox 360, on Xbox One today and with the new Xbox One experience. With some features, it’s 50% faster and easier to get things going."
Great, I've never thought it was slow but I won't complain if it's lightning fast.
It's a great selection.
Lists of games are good but if it's all shovel ware it means nothing.
Halo
Gears
Forza
TombRaider
QuantumBreak
Plus the usual Sports Games
Glad to see the AAA games along with a diverse group of indies.
X1 has really had some solid performances this year and next year looks outstanding.
