Nice videos Goforgold, The midget video was awesome. Much more enjoyable then highlighting missing pixels.
You still forgot a feature though, the random track generator. It works best for the advanced rally stages, racing in the snow was great.

Gran Turismo 5 is a realistic racing simulator Developed entirely at Polyphony Digital and published by Sony Computer Entertainment as such is exclusive to the Sony Playstation 3. Gran Turismo as a franchise is one of the oldest and most successful racing simulators in the history of the genre. Gran Turismo is known for it's expansive, deep, intuitive racing experience, realistic physics, overwhelming car offering, beautiful graphics, strive for perfection, and massive community, with Gran Turismo 5 being of no exception FEATURES: Motorsports: Kart Racing 3 races, and 1 car. Big Whoop - NASCAR Also present in Forza 4, GT5 just has more cars - WRC On randomly generated, low quality tracks. BIG drop from GT4 and prior - Super GT Every game has this Full 24 Hour Le Mans/24 Hour Nurburgring Overall though, there are less race events in GT5 then Forza Motorsport 4. GT5 has 63 (or 54?) events, while Forza 4 has 140. Unlicensed but Featured: Formula 1 Forza 4 has licences Le Mans cars Tracks : over 20 Locations 26, over 60 variations 71, Forza 4 currently has 26 Locations with over 100 variations, all in higher graphical output then GT5. Plus more to come with DLC. Cars : http://www.gran-turismo.com/local/jp/data1/products/gt5/carlist_en.html Only 220 properly rendered cars vs. over 500 in Forza 4, which are on par or have superior interior/exterior models No damage simulation or tire wear model. All damage is cosmetic, or assigned via penalty system. Forza 4 models tire deformation, engine heat, engine wear, alignment damage, individual brakepad damage, engine, transmission, gearsbox, etc damage. Gameplay - Dynamic Weather featured Yey one reason to buy GT5 over Forza 4. - dynamic day and night on dirt Rally Forza 4 still has morning, day and dusk driving, which is all that's done in real world. Racing in Snow Rally overall has dropped in quality in GT5 from prior GT games. Also PGR4 has Snow, Ice, Thunderstorms, etc raining considitions. This is only a small plus to GT5. Visual Upscaled 1080p. Don't lie. Also at 720, in ideal racing conditions (daytime, minimal cars) FPS drop by as much as 22FPS in GT5 Spec 2.0 (source: Digital Foundry), and by as much as 45FPS in 3D (source: Digital Foundry). Forza 4 runs at the same output (minus 3d) without screen tear, or a drop in FPS, even at full output (dusk, 16 cars on track).
Licencing is the only benefit to GT mode, but it's far too easy. Spec B is just hiring a driver in Forza 4, optional, but not required for completion (how it should be). Less races in GT5, including Special. Copied leveling system from Forza, but still inferrior.
Custom in game music is a feature of the 360 console, so you can play any some while playing any game, and change songs in the home menu. Everything above Forza 4 has, just replace Museum with Autovista Closing: Wait wait wait? That's all GT has? What about everything else Forza offers to compete with? Oh GT5 can't compete here right? Top Gear Content - Jeremy Clarksons narraration in Auto Vista and in cinematics. Top Gear Track lap time leaderboards (Kia Cee'd, Lotus Elise). Top Gear introduced games for multiplayer (Bowling, Soccer, etc) Auto Vista - Cars models with 1 million pixels, able to take a close look into storage compartments, sit in all seats, and get a history of the car, while getting a close up view of everything. Online game types - Over 20 different game types online in Forza 4, how many in GT5, 5? Paint/Decal system - often used to paint real world race cars with. Simulation Damage, Deteriation (tire wear), and performance models, all with the ability to be adjusted to match the difficulty to your skill level. Introduction to racing aids - such as auto braking, rewind, and easy level AI for newcomers. Cars from over 80 manufacters, all with premium level quality Best of all. No minivans, even proportion of cars per manufacterer (GT5 has 7 times as many Nissans as Ferrarri. Forza 4 is abot 1:1), no joke cars like a 1980's minivan, or VW Bus. Gran Turismo 5 is the Definitve racing simulator this generation on a console. Well it was, but now it's been overthrown. When GT6 comes out, it will likely be the definitive king, but only if they return all the features GT4 had which GT5 is missing. With surpassed physics and features GT5 is a must own for anyone who doesn't have a 360, and can't play Forza 4, but are still looking for a FULL racing simulation experience. GT5 has set the standard in the past for ANY racing sim on ANY console must meet to even be considered in the same league, and now it's happened. |
This is more in depth then the review on most websites...
Are you sure you don't work for Polyphony Digital?
GT5 is an awesome game. If you can't get the newer, better Forza 4, get GT5. The core driving mecahnics are still very very very accurate, and the graphics aren't a big fall from Forza 4. Although Top Gear, Go-Kart, NASCAR only make a small appearance in GT5, they are still fun for the hour or two of races they offer. Rally racing has taken a backseat in GT5, which is sad because that used to be a big selling point of the franchise.
If you just want to drive a good sim, GT5 is more then good enough. It was the best for the year after it's realease, but it's still great, just dated and outpaced by newer titles.

Considering you haven't played Forza 4....you really can't argue anything about which game is better. Thus by defauat from before: Forza 4 wins. No new arguements have been presented to change this. |
So the default is your optinion and I have to accept it??? Sorry, I think your are more reasonable than that.
Just accept the truth... not everyone thinks Forza 4 is better... unlike most people think GT5 is better.
I'm stopping here.

michael, this really has to stop. WE alreadry established that Forza is better, you mean YOU, have already established that (in fact you did so before either forza and GT come out). No We. Several people alredy established Forza 4 was better. Ontop of that the metascore, is higher, and the physics engine is superior (but not by much). This was established way back in the thread. GT5 fans (who haven't played Forza 4) just keep trickling in and nitpicking at little flaws. Who cares about little flaws, but games have them, but the fact is Forza 4 looks and plays better. and dont make me laugh so hard, "EVEN I STOPPED" lol, what are you talking about man, you have the most posts in this thread by far, making sure you respond to each and everyone who doesnt think forza is God's gift to man, and you then you didnt post for a few hours, and you call that stopping. lol, man, and guess what bro you are posting right now. so dont act like the other posters are some how childish, still going at it in this thread, and you are above them, having stopped. Yea, and when was my last post? I know I'm super serious when it comes to racing games, and there are a lot of ignorant people here. If I stopped, a crazy racing game nut with 2 racing wheels, that just shows you how ignorant some people are (both sides), and how some people can't accept competition, or having their prized game being surpassed in quality/content (GT5 side), while others can't accept well... competition, and that no matter how good a game is, the older product can outperform it in some aspects (GT5 does do some stuff better then Forza 4, and Forza 3 does do some stuff better then GT5, and even Forza 4 [It has Porsche]) I used to respond to respond to everyone who was ignorant, not just GT5 supporters, and I debated with those such as Booh who presented fact in an organized manner. you didnt, and still wont, you wont stop until every single person, changes their minds, because you are right and they are wrong. dude, we have been over this, stop stop trying to claim your opinions as fact, and stop trying to make sure that there is absolutely no criticism of Forza. NEWS FLASH: people can have different opinions than you... get over it. and you, yes you (as well as many other posters in this thread) need to grow up, and stop acting like its other people that are the immature ones in this thread. No because I realize we have people like you on this thread, so I don't care anymore. Everyone who has played both games knows Forza 4 is better. GT5 is just brand name, and to some people brand name means everything. I know people have different opinions, I never told someone they were wrong when they said GT5 premium car (int/ext) looks better then Forza 4. I did argue with people who said GT5 Standard cars look as good as Forza 4 cars, but that type of comment is clearly trolling. People can prefer GT5 over Forza 4 all they like, the games are structured differently (much more grinding and tuning in GT5, where Forza 4 encourages you to race with as many cars as possible). so just stop this Look what your doing and tell me that I'm the one being unfair to people/games. Every time I say the slightest comment against any PS3 game, you attack me. Do you ever attack me when I critisize Battlefield, or Fable? or Nintendo as a company? No. Please, stop being this way. Sometimes you attack me even when I wasn't critisizing a game (InFamous 1). edit: really Selnor, we should no trust YOU and Selnor about which game is better. you should be a comedian. (it was a joke right?!, if not my condelences). i guess i should ask aaron greenberg, and major nelson, if xbox is better, and has the best games too, huh. Hey, who was it who didn't know how to tune a car, or win some of the more challenging races in GT5 and came to me for help? Selnor is one of the few people I know who can compete in a racing game with me at my level. I could easily beat you in a race, and that holds true for almost anyone on this thread. On the VGC Forza 4 Car Club Selnor and I hold the fastest times for the Top Gear Track, and we are over a full second ahead of the next best, and multiple seconds faster then the average. Selnor and I can push the cars in racing games, we also play them a lot more then you. Were bigger car fans then anyone else here. Accept your place. Selnor really? YOUR OPINIONS ARE NOT FACT, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR PEOPLE TO NOT AGREE WITH YOUR OPINIONS, LET IT GO. I would ask you to do the same. Did you not try to tell me in the other thread that Uncharted 3 is a perfect game (without ever having played it) in both single player and multiplayer, and that I am just plain wrong for thinking Uncharted 3 has an average multiplayer compinent, and I am the only person who thinks that because it was a FACT that UC3 is perfect in every way? You do this a lot more then you realize, and you attack others for doing to same thing as you. I at least understand when my opinion is overplayed, and will withdraw or append a comment if I feel I innaccuratly expressed it. |
If you want any proof that Forza 4 is a better game, look at the metascore. It's 10% higher.
Want any proof Forza 4 has better graphics then GT5 Spec 2.0. Read what Digital Foundry says. Both run upscaled 1080p, with native 720p. However, GT5 drops in FPS even in ideal conditions, where Forza 4 remains at a constant 60FPS. On top of other points, they argue Forza 4 is a better looking game. Heck they said Forza 3 looks nearly as good as GT5.
If Digital Foundry not enough, look at the reviews IGN gave Forza 4 a 9.5/10 for Graphics, but GT5 only a 9/10. Most websites do the same.
Want to argue physics? Read a professional review by a car magazine. Most say they are on par.
THIS should be the end of the thread, but no.
People on both sides can't accept competition, and it's worse from GT5 fans because they can't accept their brand name sim is beaten by a newcommer. This happens, but the next Forza/GT will be better then all prior installments.
Forza has grown as a franchise. It's a top class sim like GT5, and the main reason why Forza 4 is better is because it's newer, and incourpates all the advances in development, and crtisisms of both GT5 and prior Forza games and fixes them as best as possible.
This isn't opinion, this is a general concensus. My opinion is Forza 4 is a much better game then GT5, I never push that, I only argue it's better.
Now stop stalking me and hating me on anything anti-PS3. You tire me.

I'm convinced your fucking with us now , that's some Rol level trolling there, respect man respect LMAO!!! or atleast.......that's what I'm going to tell myself
| goforgold said: I'm convinced your fucking with us now |
This is exactly the type of ignorance people show on these threads. Accept the competition and move on. geez.
Turn 10 is twice the size of PD, and been working on Forza games for 360 just as long. Many more man-hours have been put into Forza 4 then GT5. What you are basically saying, is the bed sheet with the lower thread count is softer and better quality, when in reality you just like the brand of the sheet more.
Back you into a corner, and you can't even admit defeat. Geez man, let it go. You like GT5 better, but the metascore and graphics score on individual sites is lower then Forza 4. The gaming industry accepts Forza 4 as a better game, and car and track analysts say the physics are on par.
The industry has changed since 2001, GT5 isn't even are remotly good as GT3/GT4 were when they released. Polyphony has forgotten many aspects which made GT great, and Forza has really developed.
Bet you haven't even played Forza 4.

Would just like to point out, GT5 doesn't run upscaled 720p.
