Different way to respond to sensitive questions from different developers.
When someone asks you questions relating to your competitions, they are not asking you to bash/downplay your competition.

GB: You seem to be more concerned about your competitors…
KY: To tell you the truth, when I’m interested in other games, it’s really difficult to not look at them with the creator’s eyes. I notice some details and I think to myself: “oh, they must have really hard worked on this point” or “hmm, they must have lacked time for this very aspect”. I can’t prevent myself from putting me in their place.

GB: More than 10 years after Gran Turismo’s debut, what will you record from Polyphony Digital’s evolution?
KY: I will probably surprise you but, since more than 10 years I design Gran Turismos we never told ourselves that we were the best, the numbers one. As far as I search in my memories, I can’t remember a moment when we felt satisfied with what we’ve achieved because we always want to make it better. That being said, maybe that when everything will be over, the day I will not make video games anymore, I will feel this satisfaction… but this is not in the near future.

Turn10 are living under a shadow ... GT's shadow indeed.

It is surprising considering how good their games are ... but asshole are asshole.

Agreed.

Forza 3 definetly wins when it comes to car customisation but when it comes to tracks/cars/damage/dayandnightcycle/officialreckognition GT5 is far ahead, GT is a WELL known franchise troughout the world and while Forza is by no means barely known or even average, its not close to GT's fame


you forgot to mention the GFX are far superior in GT5.

Technicallty, there is a significartive gap ...

(just watch again the Gametrailer review to realize how we have been bullshoted during month ...)


Of course PD wouldn't dare bullshot you either, stop acting like a child.

maybe they already know what gt5 has to offer, seriously, you guys know the gt series don't have a lick of realism, seriously.

Of course Forza 3 beats GT5 on a lot of features. The user generated content, the damage / physics stuff, the way it will be integrated in Xbox Live etc.

I don't know why people are hating Turn10. Both Forza games were AAA games so far and Forza 3 won't be different.

The latest GT received a 75 @ metacritic.com

Turn10 is just one great developer and they delievered. Just check the demo.

It's pretty obvious (and fully understandable) that people are objecting to how they are presenting themselves.  Basic selling 101 (and when Turn 10 speak publicily about their product they are selling) is that you don't bash the competition.  While some fans will lap it up, the majority tend to find it annoying and a 'turn off' towards the product.

Turn 10 have developed a great game, but they are doing a frankly poor job speaking publicily about it, often coming off as desperate to bash the competition and amaturish.

The funny thing is (more basic sales 101) when you repeatedly bash the compeition you tend to actually convince people the other product is better, that you secretly know it is, and feel you have to resort to direct attacks to compete.

So as many others have pointed out, they would do themselves (and their good game) a favour by changing their approach pubilicly on this point.

 

@ Bolded - It hasn't stopped people from buying Macs, or have you never seen the countless commercials from Apple bashing Windows?

Even if it becomes 3, Forza Motorsport is modeling of the lie.
In GT, there are a lot of cars and exclusive cars. And, all are faithful modeling.

whats with turn10? why want convince everyone that they beat gt5 so bad?

I mean make a good game and let the people be the judge of that.

Of course others (aka Sony) have done the same before but turn10 sound like desperate imo
