TRUE RACING FANS will get GT5, period. That doesn't mean SOME of those true racing fans won't get Forza 3, too. But every true racing game fan will undoubtedly get GT5 and if that means buying a PS3 for it, they will do it. Many real racing ONLY fans will jump on GT5 just like many did with the PSone and PS2 Gran Turismo games.

No, TRUE racing sim fans will get both (provided they have the necessary system/funds)  Anyone that says one of the games is much better than the other is not a true racing fan.

what he is saying its that more people will get  GT5.

and true racing fans will get GT5 first and foremost even if they have to get a ps3 , and even get forza 3.

and about sales its clear GT5 will sell 3-4 times what Forza 3 sells.

Yeah, and TRUE FOOTBALL FANS will only buy PES even if they have to get a ps3, and even gt PES2010.

Same line, same argument, same bull.

Racing fans with one system will get the racer for their system they like the most. Multiplatform racing fans will get racers for any of their systems. 

That's how it works.





Current-gen game collection uploaded on the profile, full of win and good games; also most of my PC games. Lucasfilm Games/LucasArts 1982-2008 (Requiescat In Pace).

^I would if you'd strike me as someone who plays racing games. I bet you're not a fan of racing....


You could not be more wrong. I don't enjoy most racing games because I suck at them ( I did, however enjoy Need For Speed Most Wanted, and NASCAR 1999 on PC), but I love racing. I am actually planning to get Forza3 and if funds permit, and  Ican convince my wife to let me, buy a PS3 and GT5 (mainly for the Nascar racing...if you can fine tune your car) So, please justify your previouse statement...remember, it's not for my benefit as much as the other members on this site...oh, and it may make you look like you know what you are talking about.

Both games look awesome... Racing fans win this year with Blur, NFS: Shift, Forza 3, GT5, and DiRT 2...

GT5 will sell more... Just look at how GT5 Prologue did last spring and it was only really a demo... Every Sony fanboy on the planet will have this as a required purchase as a right for passage. Great games deserve great sales, both look great and both should get great sales.

Well Im a true racing fan who has both consoles and Im 100% getting Forza 3, its out first and the 360 triggers feel better for me.

Unless GT5 offers something completely revolutionary this will be the first real GT I've passed on ever.

why buy 2 similar products if one is better ?

Forza will be inferior no weather night racing and especially no rally already prove that.  Lack of rally will hurt Forza badly in Europe, GT5 will slaughter it there.  While Nascar done right could bring that massive loyal as hell nascar fanbase over to GT.  I played some nascar games and they were rather mediocre that being no surprise with EA behind it.

Also Turn ten can't compete with Pd relationships with in the automotive world.  They will always be by far second rate there and will never get access to cars that PD gets.

The only thing Forza ever had over GT was damage, but even with that most knew it was fake unrealistic damage and did not care much about it.

If a Enzo cost as much a a Viper, why would any one buy the Viper ?
