leo-j, your fellow Sony Defender seems to think Forza is better than GT in gameplay:

But based on what I've seen I agree with Griffin (yes, even though I own a 360 and not a PS3!). I just don't know how much all of that matters. 

I don't play racing games.  Is it more important to have somewhat better graphics (GT) or gameplay (Forza)?



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

Way to screw around with my quote leo-j. I said GT does not look SUBSTANTIALLY better than FM2. And i'm right, it doesn't. GT looks very pretty, but it is not leaps and bounds ahead of FM2. If the PS3 was nearly as powerful as Sony says it is then GT, a first party game, would look far and away better than the Microsoft exclusive equivalent. But it's time to be honest with yourself leo. The PS3 is more powerful than the 360, but the difference is only marginal and massive amounts of the PS3's power are extremely difficult, if not impossible to harness for gaming purposes.

No shooter on the 360 looks nearly as good as killzone 2, but farcry 2.

No game looks as good as gran turismo 5, gameplay wise it IS leaps and bounds ahead of FM2.

Heavenly sword looks better than ANY action game on the xbox 360.

that is all I have to say...

 


 But we are playing forza and 360 shooters right now.

Leo-J how much fun do you have comparing games you have never played (because they have not been released!) to other games you most likely have also never played (a different system)?

Can't we just all get along and agree that the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 by the same magnitude that the xbox was more powerful than the PS2?



My Top 5:

Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger

My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 and Wii

Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.

 actually its more like comparingGC vs Xbox. GC had stronger GPU, Xbox stronger CPU. This gen PS3 stronger CPU, 360 stronger GPU. The only difference is that the CELL can perform GPU tasks making it like adding a physx card to a PC.

I would be willing to agree when & if I see the difference across the board.

Let's just all agree that this game looks excellent and we are all excited to play it. :)

Hahaha, its nothing like that

Anyway, GT has great car models but really bare/dead environments. Other than that, its just like GT4.

"Why do they call it the xbox 360? Because when you see it, you'll turn 360 degrees and walk away" 

@starcraft

They are comparing Forza 2 to a demo of GT5. When GT5 is out, then we can compare them.



I'll take the case!!!
