Microsoft smoked sony last gen when it came to exclusive racers.
If you like your racers, the was no better place to be than on a 360.
Forza 2, 3, 4 & Horizon, plus Project Gotham Racing 3 & 4 ALL scored higher than any GT, Supercar Challenge, Motorstorm etc. |
Driving enthusiasts disagree, clearly. The reviewers simply do not represent the driving community. And why would they? I mean, driving sims are probably some of the least "gamey" games out there, so game reviewers should mostly not be fit to review them.
|
But alas, GT is a video game, available for a video game console, and is therefore bound to certain criteria.
Being more boring and grinding then Forza will reflect in its scores.
|
Um the sales show clearly many don't find it boring. Gt is about the drive, not the race. Some reviews/people don't get that. You saying it si more boring doesn't make it so.
|
The fact remains, that since GT3, the GT series has seen a fairly steep decline in it's scores.
I'm not knocking GT for the sake of it, hell, i will go on record now and say that GT3 for me is better than ANY Forza (it narrowly beats Forza 3, but has the rest well beaten IMO)
But i think it's true what a lot of people have started to say, GT is still getting strong sales purely based on the MASSIVE following it got during it's ps1/ps2 heyday.

Hogwash, it is still thre best SIM on consoles......with a massive amount of content..
I keep saying this, but, once you race online virtually all complaints about GT's rigid career mode disappear. The handling, physics are just amazing and a joy to ride. Some just expect more high octane racing should stick to arcade racers.
Metacritic is a useless metric:
metacritic is a broken useless metric imo. Different games reviewed different times by different reviewers, with some arbitrary number score..... Sorry if I don't put much stock into it.
