Every two years is not execessive that is their typical development cycle there are more then enough new cars coming out in a two years span to justify a new game every two years plus there are a ton of old cars that haven't been in Forza game and now that they added open wheel cars they have a even bigger pool of old cars to choose from.  The only segment where they almost have had all the good ones worth putting in a game is muscle cars and maybe Ferrari but other then that there are plenty of cars that haven't been in a Forza game yet.

You're being a bit premature with Driveclub and Project cars, because neither of these actually has a history, and they don;t even have a game out yet.

And why would to mention Forza in any way shape or form? That's like saying Sony should give up on the car racing genre altogether and give the whole racing fanbase over to Xbox.

Driveclub *could* prove to be Sony's new premier, and highly popular racing franchise, but right now it's an unknown quantity and certainly cannot be used as a basis to argue for the end of the GT series. Perhaps after Driveclub 2 sells over 10 million (if it's that good of course) then there might be an argument for GT to come to an end.

Sony needs an exclusive racing sim/arcade franchise, and if Driveclub doesn't live up to the hype with disappointing sales (which is a possibility) that actually makes GT a more important franchise than ever.

Well if those are the reasons, then all racing games on PS3 should be laid to rest because I dont know games which have most of those features, but I do know they have a problems list much much bigger than that.

1. A fair share of concept cars vs a deluge of concept cars.

2. Car customization and tuning isn't what we're talking about here (though the minute tuning in Forza has been guesswork up until Forza 5). Try to stay focused.

3. Yep, Forza 4 had a good selection of Maseratis. I'd say the difference in the number of Maseratis (8 to 1) is a lot like the number of concept cars in each series. Well, it used to be anyway.

4. Porsche not being in GT is not Polyphony's fault, so that kind of pointless to bring up. And the key word in your sentence is "had", because they're not in Forza 5 either.

When the series started, it offered something no other game could, hundreds of real cars and fairly awesomely made tracks

So in what other (console) game can I drive through the night with variable weather on the 24h Nurburgring. Drive in go karts, drive on the moon, drive the first car my parents used to have, put historical cars against modern race cars, relive my memories of ps1 days by driving on HD remakes of its tracks then go on the highly polished Spa Franchorchamps, to the twisty Bathurst track to battling the snow in rally cars. What other game keeps me coming back with weekly 'seasonal' event updates.

GT6 scrapped some stuff from GT5, I hope GT7 will bring it back. You can make your own endurance races ofcourse, but 24 minute ones in the campaign feel a bit lacking compared to upto 24 hours (way too much) in GT5. 1 to 3 hour endurance races would be nice. Track editor needs a come back too, as well as procedural rally tracks.


Drive club, Forza Horizon 2 and Project Cars all take the progress Polyphony started and push it forwards to a place the genre needs to be

Different games, different focus. Maybe Project cars comes close but it's an unproven franchise we haven't seen most of. Good thing you don't mention Forza, as it still doesn't even have day/night and massively cut down its content. Should Forza 6 not be made as well?


I'll continue enjoying the vast variety GT6 offers until something better comes out. So far I keep coming back to GT, while other racing games stay on the shelf once completed.

Actually even Forza 5 with its limted roster has a fair amount of Maseratis it started with one its up to 4 and two of them are brand new to the game I'm pretty sure they will have close to 8 or even more in 6.  Also lets not forget Forza always has the best selcetion of Maserati's cousin Ferrari.  3 and 4 even had Ferrari's test track Mugello Circuit which will most likely return in 6.  Also there are cars in Forza that are so rare that they are virtually concept cars like the just added Veneno only 4 of them exist in the world.

Speaking of forgetting, let's not forget that GT has the best selection of race cars period, to where you can do full races with the same class of race car. And if you really want to get specific to each brand of car, GT has more brands as well. And if you want to point out Ferarri and Maserati, I can point out Pagani and Mercedes and Audi and TommyKaira and BMW etc etc etc.

And "virtually" a concept car is not a thing.

Forza 4 really had the best selection of race cars the only thing that was missing was the open wheel cars.  5 is about adding open wheel cars.  I'm pretty sure 6 will add a lot of the LMP and GT cars that didn't make the cut in 4 and add more open wheel and other type of race cars DTM, V8 Supercars etc.  Saying that GT has the best selction of race cars is almost laughable since in both 5 and 6 the vast majority of race cars is made up of duplicate NASCAR cars and they did a poor job with that since they have no models from Dodge and when 5 came out they where still active in NASCAR.

Gran Turismo still satisfies what I want out of it, so in that vein, I disagree. If you don't like it, just don't buy it.
