I only remember my experience and I had a lot of issues getting online and when I did it was a skipping wreck. Could be those issues got fixed but I did not bother after the first few weeks. Either way, I enjoy both GT and Forza each have their strength and weakness. It seems this thread has devolved into a pissing contest again for each game which probably means I will head out.

Is there any other kind of GT or Forza thread :p
I did have the skipping issue as well. It depended on the player location, racing with people from South America was the worst from my location. Plus it depended a lot of the host's internet capabilities whether all cars would be visible in a race. They did improve smoothing out the skipping issues in later patches, yet it was peer 2 peer, bad peer, bad result.
I liked the lobby system though. Playing regularly I knew a bunch of good hosts with good connections, not afraid to kick badly lagging players. It might not e nice to be on the receiving end of the kick, yet you can't have a decent match with 200ms ping, find a closer host. Anyway, much better than the random matchmaking experiences I had before. TDU and PGR on 360 had me disconnected 3 out of 4 times before the race started. I never played much of Forza online, can't really comment on the stability of that. GT sucked up enough of my time already and I cancelled gold as I didn't see any benefits back then of the paid subscription.

Where I live PSN has always been a hit or miss for me when it comes to downloads and online play. I know everyone does not have the same experience so there probably a lot going on than just my ISP, Connection etc.
