What I like about Forza 3 is that it gave gamers the same quality game as GT5, with a much shorter development time, and Turn 10 released Forza 2, a full racing game, while gamers waited. I'm big on the racing games, thats one reason I got my 360 a lot sooner then my PS3, and I think the wait for GT5 was unbearable. There was a simulation racing game on the Wii back in 2007, I forget the name, but it sold poorly. Race Pro was a 6-7/10 game by Atari, nothing special. I love racing games too, but unlike you I don't play NASCAR or F1. I mainly like games that have real world, street legal cars in them. So Forza, GT, NFS, Test Drive, PGR, Race Pro, and GRID are the type of games I enjoy. Mind you Mario Kart is a special exception to the rule. GT5 is a great game, but not far from perfect like many gamers expected it to be. 1,000 cars is nice, and the game definatly has a distinct GT feel, but the difference in quality between standard and prenium cars in too much for me. PGR3, a small budget 2005 launch title had in car view on all 80 cars in game, Test Drive had it on all 125 cars in 2006, Forza 2 had in car view on 350 cars in 2007, and Forza 3 now has over 500 cars with high level of detail and in car view. I would much rather of had GT5 have 800 cars, with 200 prenium cars, and 600 standard cars, with in car view at least to PGR3 levels. Also to be fair, a lot of these 1,000 cars are repeats. Identical cars, with identical compenents, but minor changes. e.g. there are 13 S2000's, but only 4 of them are different mechanically. Euro Spec IS300 is the exact same as US spec, and the differences between some cars is literally a different style head light. However, special features, and licencing still make this game awesome. GT has always tried to make the gamer a better racer, and taking that Lotus Elise around the Top Gear Test Track feels soo much realer then anything in Forza. Wish the whole game were up to that level of quality, and I hope Forza 4 can match this. |
Yea i love top gear.... it sucks forza 4 will have top gear usa on it, i didnt like that show much.... Im really far into my gt5 game right now and its getting better and better... I love it.. I honestly see why it took em this long to make the game... ive put in endless hours and i still got ways to go..... but PD needs to listen to there fans for the 6th game.... I love PGR..... those games were awesome.... need for speed, the game i got i had shift and i didnt like it..... prostreet was good..... graphics wise between forza 3 and gt5 it switches alot.... some tracks gt5 looks like ps2 and other tracks like nurburgring it looks amazing... the best tracks ive seen on that game are some of the rally tracks like theres one at night that the fireworks are going off, it looks like your there.... and yea i got like 400 cars in my gt5 game right now but some are repeats
