ehhhhhhh fair enough, even though every one who plays GT knows it a sim and only a sim.

Never said it wasn't a good driving sim, GT5 is fantastic in that regard, but to me lacks many of the features which makes Forza 3 appeal to ALL lovers of cars rather than just providing a realistic driving experience.  GT is obviously the more established franchise, especially in Europe.

Having said that, Forza 4 looks it might surpass it in both graphics and maybe physics with their new tire physics.

yeah I thought when comparing a Sim one would look at the Sim aspects of the game but that clearly isn't what's going on here which is why I won't bother showing all the SIM related features the GT has and Forza doesn't.

and from looking at the gameplay vids of Forza 4 it doens't come with in a inch of a mile of touching GT5's physics

How are you judging that based on watching videos?

Wow at that article, the amount of nonsense it contains is insane. And for starters the standard cars in GT5 are better looking for the most part then the ones in Forza3. Please tell me where the snow, dirt, rain, night driving, b-spec mode are in Forza? Please tell me where the 1080p gameplay is in forza? And just FYi you can bump your way to first in Forza much better then in GT5.

The damage in Forza is also useless, how does it work in that game again, get bumped from behind end up with paint scratches over the front of your car.

Copy and paste the whole URL sometimes, as is the case here, it doesn't link the complete URL.

 

However by judging from those screen shots plus a number of gameplay videos I have seen GT5 only looked nice for about 1/5th of the game... I can't coment on how it plays or if they have improved on its catastrophic failures seeing as i haven't played it, nor have I seen recent screenshots/gameplay videos... but really isn't it useless to compare Forza 3 to GT5 when Forza 4 is what we should be concerned with here?

is that Ferarri picture real or graphics? o.O


If it was real the right mirror that is visible would actually have a shadow on the car......

if you're going to post a picture trying to demonstrate the graphics and lightning model, pick one where they get it right...


you are a very bad man ^^

but didnt that Ferrari look yummy?

It's gonna be stunning.

Are the 1000000 polygons actually there when you're racing, or just for the Kinect bit?

I think it's stacking up to be a really great racing game, and one that looks amazing too!

Proof that Forza 4 is going to be EXTREME! E-X-T-R-E-M-E.

Seriously I can't wait for this game even though I didn't play much of Forza 3. Why? To see more Forza vs GT topics, they bring out the best of both fanboys.



It's just that simple.
