That's a matter of opinion. Reviews say Forza was better than GT4.
Sales say GT is better
Sales say 50 cent bullet proof is one of the best games of all time by your logic.
it was bought by casuals just like halo 2 :lol: they think everything is "good" :lol:, on the other hand most of gt fans are hardcore car enthusiasts, with very few casuals becuz of the learning curve.
[QUOTE="Bansheesdie"][QUOTE="progenitorvirus"]ok then i guess its "crap" and so is "halo 2" except halo 2 really is "crap" :lol:progenitorvirus
Name the last GT title that was nominated for GOTY here on GS. I'm waiting.
there's something wrong with you if you think "halo 2" was a AAA title :lol: my god the halo series is the most overrated, boring storyline, boring everything.
obviously we should start calling gamespot "microspot" becuz of their love for the xbox, and xbox 360 :lol:
Again, i linked you to averages of every review for GT4 and Forza. Forza comes out on top. So is every single reviewer in the universe biased? And again with the random :lol: smiley. Are you on placebos or something?Â

I take by your answer that there has never been a GT title nominated for a GOTY, and you take out your frustration by bashing a series that has been nominated both times, yeah real mature.
This is really too bad, GT 4 wasn't even nominated for Best Racer of 2005. Guess what won...Forza Motorsport. http://www.gamespot.com/pages/features/bestof2005/index.php?day=4&page=6

Nonsense. It's hugely popular with casual gamers. Why do you think Sony immediately made a PS2/GT4 bundle the day it was released? Surely this huge hardcore audience would already have a games console? And Forza is much more realistic than GT4; again as all of the reviews say. GT is borderline arcade.Â

Forza wins, GT4 isn't even nominated. Every single review is averaged and Forza comes out with the higer score by 4 whole points. And still he goes on.... without a shred of evidence to back himself up other than sales, ignoring the fact that GT is on a console with six times the user base.
Now that deserves a :lol:Â

Because it is the first game in the Gran Turismo series thats why, the series is good, nay great, as a whole but not so much as an individual.

Again with the nonsense. A game has to be at least seven years old to be eligible for the GS hall of fame. Answer the following, i actually dare you because you've been dodging it for half an hour now and you know it:
 Forza and GT4 both released the same year. GT4 isn't even nominated for racer of the year. Forza wins.
Every review of the two games has been averaged and GT4 gets an 8.9; Forza gets a 9.3
The only thing GT4 has over Forza is sales; and it's on a console with six times the user base, so that is to be expected.
Face it. I have as much evidence as is possible to have to say Forza >> GT4. You however, say it doesn't even compare, but you have nothing other than your own opinion which we've already established is pointless as you say two GOTY, AAA games are crap, despite all the critical acclaim.Â

Please stop blabbing your jibberish. The main reason GT sells so well is not because its the greatest racing game of all time, its because it has a fanbase of over 120 Million. Give Forza that and see what happens.Â

Really? So what does that mean about GT 4 and the first Forza? Doesn't that mean that Forza is a more advanced racer because it demands more out of the player? Thus the learning curve.
Well this is an interesting topic..
I personally don't think GT series has as many "fans" as it has sales. GT games are the most bundled with consoles EVER. I know my PS2 came with GT3. Cash Converters (A shop you sell stuff to here in Australia) pretty much has a row for GT games that people have sold to them, there is that many.
And why are we comparing Forza and GT? GT stopped being a sim years ago (I guess thats what happens when you use the same gameplay for 10 years?). The fact of that matter compared to other competing racing sims, GT is behind.. way behind - in realism (not visuals).
Â
Atleast GT looks good.. right?Â
Car damage will not happen. Legal issues.foxhound_fox
That was true in the past, but manufacturers have since changed their opinion on the matter. They were worried if people smashed up their cars in the game that people would think they were of poor quality. However, they have realized that people want the most realistic experience in games possible and people will even think more favorably of their cars after experiencing them in games. It's almost like a form of advertising to them. That's why more recent racers like PGR or Forza have had licensed cars that can be damaged. If you look at a lot of older games that did have damage did not have licensed cars like Burnout or Rush.

GT is bumper cars. If you are going around a tight corner and there is another car on the inside then you can just bump them into the railing and keep on driving, thats a learning curve if I ever heard of one. :roll:
