Its easy for GT4 to have great car models when theres NOTHING else going on at the screen, and still the ground textures are horrible.

 Now you resort to racing sims? Lol Do you realize that  all you have to do is load the track which is very easily to do. The environment is mostly  pre rendered, which means you can't interact with it. This allows for better visuals.  That game is in no way technically impressive.. A 7 year old computer could run it. But you probably won't listen to this post. 

nope ur right i wont listen becaue all i see is a ps2 game looking the same if not BETTER THEN A WII GAME.....

Yes, it's better. Anyone who argues otherwise is a damned fool.

The lighting, draw distance, animations are better than anything last gen, especially in 16:9.

Wow that Farcry screenshot look pretty bad to be honest, look at the fire there, and the low polygon count.

I love me some racing sims but sc is right. GT had its own flaws (massive ones once you play a current-gen racing game) and it's a hell of a lot easier to render a fixed track than it is an open world where you have to deal with draw distance, light rendering (which GT4 had virtually none of), and overall "feel" of 3D.

Screenshots don't do SMG justice while GT4 screens make the game look much better than it really is.
