Anything involving Sony = garbage in your eyes no matter how good it is. The last 2 years and this year exclusive lineup is garbage to you right?

Well, judging from all the videos i have seen of people playing the game, nobody can drive a straight line, or stay on the road. Either they all suck, or the game is just unplayable.

Unless he's thinking of a different post, the one he's referring to doesn't specify a game... And I felt like recording more GT4 footage :P

Do you know what i found funny, fans comparing one unreleased game with another one that is almost 1 year old, it's not that sad?

People compared Forza 3 to GT5P even though GT5p came out in 07.

And the fact that it's a glorified demo. xD

Here's a quote from a different magazine.

"While many will be looking forward to the upgraded graphics and physics of the game, many more will be wondering one thing: Just how real is GT5?

The answer? So real that it perfectly mirrors actual racing. Now that may sound like a tall order, but in a world exclusive, we co-drove with Yamauchi in this year's Nurburgring 24-hour race and witnessed him prove beyond a sliver of doubt that performances in the game are attainable in real-world racing."

Well I'm assuming only one of the two writers has raced Nurburgring and writes about cars and racing for a living.

Yeah, but how many games has that guy reviewed. I doubt enough to make his opinion credible.

Yeah. But seriously, that last quote you brought up should have ended the thread. It actually made me more excited about the game, and picking up a wheel for it. I might have to force my older relatives to try this thing.

Not only does sarcasm does not translate well on the Internet, but you have to remember that we have people from different cultures and backgrounds who respond differently to certain forms of language, such as humor. Do not expect people whose culture does not recognize sarcasm to take it as it is.

[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]

I got my hands on the kiosk demo at Gamestop yesterday, and it felt very similar to previous GT games (which to me, isn't a good thing; the driving model there is archaic by modern standards). I tried driving with no assists, and normal tires in the Enzo around the Nurburgring... I lost control almost whenever I tried to turn. "Throttle control" isn't even an issue, its the pure lack of grip the tires give. My other big problem was that the face buttons were used for acceleration/deceleration, and the triggers were used for shifting (I *really* hope that the triggers can be used for accel/decel). On top of that, there was no clutch-shifting option and the shifting animation was very weird (the hands spent more time on the shifters than on the wheel, even in corners).

Plus, any bump was heavily over-emphasized, and the car was just shaking uncontrollably at times. Either they are trying to make you "feel" more like you are in an actual car (much like how they used over-emphasized braking motion in GT4), or their physics model is really off. I'll probably go with the former... though, it is weird considering that is something you would normally "feel" while driving, not see.

There is definitely a lot of depth there... but it has me wondering how "accurate" to real life the physics actually are, considering in "real" racing sims like GTR2, I've never had that kind of problem with grip and spinning out before.

zero_snake99

Ok this is laughable at best.

First off, you're driving an ENZO with no assists. Second, using "normal" tires... I'm guessing either N or S tires... Third of all. Have you ever driven ANY sports car? Stiff suspension, especially at high speeds with shake a car to now end.

I frankly don't believe you have played GTR2 either. Keeping in mind GTR2 is still a very flawed game in comparison to newer sims, it's still a great sim that has many things spot on, INCLUDING the exessive shaking that is posed when driving a car.

This is correct. Look at this video Or any other video with an in-car view. You can see the suspension getting a work out. Ive taken a R34 GTT on the tracks...you can literally start to feel all the bumps at those speeds. Depends how tight the dampers are.

Some people lack common sense. Lol.

He does not need to test the game relative to any other game. That has absolutely NO relevance to ANYTHING.

Hes testing the game relative to REAL LIFE...and hes saying its damn accurate.

Exactly.

"Gran Turismo cars oversteer and dont weigh enough, leaving them feeling stiff and unrealistic"

What?

Stopped reading what ever EGM has to say a long time ago. Just look at their reviews.
