I have both GT5 and Forza 3 and in general haven't noticed any long load times in GT5 (except the initial install). Forza 3 on average takes about 30 seconds give or take to load a race, so i'm not sure why that video shows Forza in such a bad light. I'd say in terms of loading they were about equal. I don't have a problem either with the interface in GT5 unlike many others who complain. The graphics are definitely tipped in GT5's favor in some of the races, but it definitely suffers in others. Some tracks look poor and its obvious the standard cars are not up to the high level of finish of the premium.  I don't think this takes away from the enjoyment of the game though. I still prefer the car handling in Forza 3 over GT5 as it seems to react as I expect a car would when you apply power and braking. This could all be down to the fact I am using a pad in both games, but thats just my impression of it. GT5 also suffers a bit in terms of sense of speed, but thats just the difference between a sim and the slightly arcade route which Forza 3 took.

Both games are excellent and provide many hours of enjoyment whichever console you have.

farrrrrrr to reasonable and balanced... forza is a poor imitation of the definitive GT franchise... wash your mouth out!!

whats your opinion of the online apsects of each? 


The online in Forza 3 is broken and total crap. It's the same as "nothing" from where I stand. So yeah, keep comparing online features between the 2 games. Now go look for the Forza 3 online community AND GOOD LUCK FINDING ONE LOL.

This game is shit loads of fun.

 

THE ONLINE is without doubt one of my top PS3 online games. Gather 16 swedish / iranian players on my friend list (the community system is so awesome, it almost like facebook but for cars LOL). Its so awesome playing with 16 people screaming in the mic, the tension when someone tries to overtake you, and you relise you cant do shit -> DIE MAN DIE. Lmao, oh and the start, the cluster fuck where some cars roll over and jump right over your car as you pass them.

 

Its so intense I just came while writing this.

 

As for the overall race performance, you can always put the penalty thing on so you don't really see these crashes as brutally and everyone can be boring and have a real race (Naw im just kidding). I just like action from time to time LOL. Especially when everyone screams Allah Ackbar before hitting each other XD. Such an amazing game, im truly addicted to it and its online mode.

 

Whoever said GT5 has "half working online", What the fucking balls are you talking about man?

 

EDIT: Just rememberd, Forza can only have 8 cars on the track. Wait is this really true? Im pretty sure it is o_o someone back me up fast! That means GT5 has 2x the amount?!

EDIT2: Or maybe Forza has ..12? Thats atleast better, I mean 8 is far too little. Can someone confirm how many cars can be at the track at once in Forza 3? I know GT5 has 16. Anything below 12-10 is wtf.


Not sure 100% but pretty sure it was 8

Wow,  another Gran Turismo thread ruined by the usual parties.

Figures

IMO,  Gran Turismo 5 is one of the best racing games I have ever played.   I am having a blast with it.   The small complaints about the loading time and menues, are just that small.  And the online is a blast,  I really dont understand the complaints about it.

hopefully VGCHARTZ will get the reveiw right none like other over rated reveiw sites.

because of gameplay and it being the best racing sim out and the environmental graphic isues i see nothing less then a 9 to 9.75, and if its reveiwed lower then its not to be trusted (unless its vgchartz cause they don't give 10's)

Who cares what score it gets.  Everyone playing the game agree that its a damn great racing game.  No matter how many minor issues it has, the good stuff greatly overshadows them.
