Dedicated racing sim site.  While since I looked at it.  They seemed to keep changing their review approach making it hard to compare titles.  Seemed to know their stuff though and give fairly in-depth reviews of sim games for PC and consoles as well as accessories like wheels.  TBH their view (and other similar sites) are probably more relevant than a lot of game review sites who I personally wouldn't necessarily trust to know more about how a race car should feel than me or be able to really judge driving physics, etc.

They should review Forza 4 soon - they don't normally bother with deadlines as they're producing in-depth reviews rather than rushing to match game release.  I'm hoping a few of the sim sites will review both Forza 4 and revist GT5 after the Spec 2.0 update as that should make for an interesting comparison.

In that case,I guess I agree with their review being more relevant than the others.

Like I said,I'm glad F4 turns out to be an amazing game.With the bar set even higher,it can only mean good news for GT fans like myself.

Forza 4 seems very good from my time with it so far.  I actually prefer aspects of GT 5 still, but Forza 4 is close in many respects, ahead in others and still behind in a few (the premium cars in GT5 still slightly nix the Froza 4 models from what I've seen and even reviews putting Forza 4 ahead overall mention this, the lighting still seems a little better on the cars and tracks in Gt 5 and the force feedback and track accuracy also seem better too).  But whereas Forza 3 felt like a pretender to the throne for the most part where it mattered Forza 4 really delivers.

So long as Turn 10 stop the silly slagging (which they seem to have done) I think it's great there are two similar titles pushing each other to match each release.

Next up - GT 5 Spec 2.0.
