I think it's safe to say the PS3 is the definitive graphics king for this gen

No no no!  GT5 is obviously better since it's 1080p, not 720p like Forza 4 is. :P

Both are 720p. GT5 is only 1080p when viewing cars in the garage and when you take a photo. GT5 does has 1080p vertical resolution, but has frequent frame rate drops to 30FPS (lower in 3D), even in optimal 12 person driving, no weather. Forza 4 holds a constant 60 FPS.

GT5 looks more like Forza 3, with the difference being car models look better in GT5 (for the limited cars that have them).

I don't think the game ever dropped to 30fps on my system, or at the very least, it sure isn't so bad that my eyes notice it.  But you're free to over-exaggerate the issue to suit your agenda.

In the end, the result is a still very smooth result running at a resolution higher than Forza 4.  And you said that graphics king should be 1080p... So, take a stance and keep it, will ya? :P

Not over-exaggerating, have you not read any articles by Digital Foundry? Drops to 30 FPS are common, here are some links and pictures

GT5 is the green line there, which is actually below 30FPS in a 12 car race with no weather. Same conditions as Forza 4, and stuggling.

I said the PS3 so called graphical kings, are not 720p, they are not in a different level then 360 exclusives.

 

Also you may not notice FPS drops, but you probably just aren't paying attention. 30FPS is still livablem 15FPS is chopey.
