Glad you mention those as they too basically just add a new feature or 2, rebadge the same game and sell millions of copies again to all those dedicated fanboys out there. There is a difference tough apart from FIFA and COD being released (or shall i say re-released
) on a yearly basis, and PD needing years for a new GT:
Fifa and COD were already quality / finished products when they first had their big success years ago whereas GT is now also in the rebadging game, but have never even bothered to fix their series flaws (AI, sounds, damage model)...
So in a way what PD does is worse actually, as unlike FIFA or COD they are not reselling the finished product of years ago, but the unfinished product from years ago
