GTHD Is a tech demo ENOUGH ALREADY~

i hate it when cows say GtHD owns pgr3 and forza 2, GTHD IS JUST A TECH DEMO, NOT EVEN A GAME! ther isnt any AI running in GTHD, its just you, driving around by yourself, TECH DEMOS are suppose to look amazing(with a few tricks to get the graphics like that)

proof
http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_dawndemo_home.html -graphics were generated with Geforce FX 5200, amazing character model (how come i dont see that when i game with the FX5200?) its a tech demo!

http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_nalu_downloads.html (6800) -again you dont see these kinds of character models in any game and this card is 2 generations behind as of now

this goes to show you that you shouldnt compare a tech demo(GTHD) to a game(forza2, pgr)

GT HD is a yawn-fest

I downloaded it and it's just one bumper-car on the track. And you can't even map the buttons. So, it's the "X" button only for gas. NO mapping to the R2 trigger.

Dude the difference is, those tech demos for the Geforce cards are pretty much A) maximized completely to max out the GPU, you run that pixie demo on a 5200 in real time and it's gonna crawl. Comparing PC hardware to Console hardware is silly. They are so different it's not even close. A PC game will never be specifically optimized for a single GPU, it will at best be optimized for a series of cards. So while a PC graphics card will run games worse as new cards come out and developers move on, a console will only run games better as they will constantly be optimizing the game for the hardware.

GTHD is simply a PS2 engine, with high res textures and a couple next gen effects. You're right it is a tech demo, and the replay mode looks better than any other racer out, except Motorstorm. The actually gameplay isn't as impressive, but it can hold up with alot of current racers. The PS3 could easily create something better than GTHD, if a tech demo, can look and run that well, so much so that it can even be considered to be better than full on games, then it says something for the console.  

You could get the quality of graphics out of a PC GPU if developers decided to make games for that specific card, but they won't and never will, so your comparision is moot.

tech demo or not, if sony was going for a good impression...... they should have done better than GT HD.chrisdojo

the only reason GTHD has been compared to PGR3 or Forza 2 is to compare graphics. and GTHD's graphics are better and its only a tech demoShawtymann

Except the root of your comparision was why should we believe a tech demo can be compared to a full game and you used demos on PC card to prove your point. And they can not be used to prove anything when talking about console games. So your supporting arguments did not work. That was my point. I also supported my that GTHD could very well represent what could be done on a PS3, and most definately it's not even close to what could be done.

GTHD= Tech demo, but not above the limits of what the console could do with a real game using the hardware.

Nvidia Demo= a tech demo, but not possible in a real game using the hardware.

You arguement is not stuctured properly, you're using unrelated supporting arguments to reinforce your base. If you would have said, GTHD is tech demo. It lacks all the features of a real game, so there for it only looks good because it doesn't have those other things. Then made a reference to the rubber ducky demo, and said the PS2 could never match that, you'd still be dead wrong, but at least you'd have a coherent argument.

BTW, hurling insults, insisting that I have ADD, makes you look like the sped, because have no clue how to get your point across logically.

btw last i known, nvidia doesnt make games, they just make tech demos to show what the graphics card is capable of. PD does makes game, and they are showing us what GTHD could of been if the ps2 was powerful enough to deliver.

btw it is sad when GTHD is using last gen engine and their cars look equal or even better then the current gen car models. now that is messed up. so what is your next excuse when GT5 comes out? and IF looks better then forza and pgr, what is going to be your next excuse.

Agreed.

But you need to excuse cows. After the NPD ownage today, they only have a tech demo for teh pwnage.

GTHD looks great, but I want to see it with at least 6 other cars on the track.

I got bored after an hour. No rumble. Only one car on track. No online play. No damage. No custom soundtracks.

It was a yawn-fest. In fact, i think I'm going to delete it today. I see no need for it on my HDD.

You need to play Forza.

Damage, custom paint, online, custom soundtracks. Forza makes GT HD seem like a last gen game.

GT HD feels like a bumper car game after playing Forza.
