[QUOTE="Gamingcucumber"]GT:5 is the most ambitious racer i've ever seen and it looks like it will really deliver. Everything about it is top notch. AND I HATE CAR GAMES! So that's saying a lot.KingTuttle
What's ambitious about it?

The amount of cars, the amount of game modes, the graphics and so on. Is your opinion different on the subject? If then...why so?

People were actually impressed by this trailer? Maybe I need to move to the south and buy a ranch to understand the excitement.

I love FM...but I was actually loving the WRC sponsorship. I hate NASCAR. What do you want to bet they count all the NASCAR team cars as "different cars" lol...Here's the STP car that's just like the Budweiser car.....but different paint.

[QUOTE="Nedemis"][QUOTE="planbfreak4eva"][QUOTE="Nedemis"] so adding one game mode where you race in an oval and another mode that even GT3 had is the reason for this insane delay with GT5? :lol: I'm sorry, but that's pretty weak. BTW.....the damage modeling looked rather weak too. Not saying Forza is better, but why bother doing something when they obviously can't surpass the ones who included it in their VERY FIRST GAME is beyond me.

it is delayed for many reasons, 1 was to aquire licenses for the cars. since they didnt have some that they wanted and now they do. damage is another reason..and just making it better and better. thats what they r trying to do...they see that ps3s numbers are not so high. so polyphony is just improving the game and not rushin..and just waiting until the time comes for it to be released..its better to work on 1 game for 5 years..rather than make 2 games in 5 years.. and the one that has been worked on longer is much better

I have yet to see one single bit of GT5 that warrants the 5 year dev process to date. Turn 10 will have released 3 full fledged racers in the time it's taken PD to even think of a release date. :lol: Sad thing for PD is that Turn10 has easily surpassed them and have delivered a far superior console sim racer in that time. If you don't agree then you're obviously blinded by your silly devotion to PD or you have never touched a Forza game and have had the opportunity to see the amazing physics at work first hand. GT is a joke and should be compared to PGR in terms of realism. :|

i played forza, not impressed, graphically it is no where near gt5p..which is a prologue and gt5 will look even better...in forza cars look arcady, becuase of all those vinyls..the surroundings do not look impressive..maybe its gt5p or killzone that made me think that. ..anw....if u drove a car, and played forza and gt u will know which feels more real..i drive. i played both games and gt is the closest it comes to real driving.it feels like u r driving..with forza i didnt have that feeling... also 400 cars compared to probably over 1000 cars..what do u prefer more? so realism, graphics, cars.. are all better in gt... so whats better in forza? damage?

Every iteration of car sims/games add more cars, better graphics and so on. That's not ambition. Ambition would be track editors, video editors, additional user content creation etc (things that are new to the genre and push it forward). Also, you cannot even compare gameplay yet off a trailer. Let's wait for that....

There were a ton of cars in Gran Turismo 2 as well. Rally was in the last GT game - Nascar is just the existing endurance races but with everyone racing Nascar vehicles. The graphics are nice, but they're not pushing any envelope. They're not really doing anything that GT4 didn't do, except for having slightly prettier graphics and a barely functional online mode.

Care to point out where? All it was was pre-rendered cinematic. Like all the openings to all the games.

The GT5 trailer was not pre-rendered. The most impressive scenes were from replay.heybooboo19

Prove it. And the most impressive parts of racing games is showing us, the players, what it will look like to play the game. But I guess that's what GT fans want most... a virtual race photography game.

With GT all you need is a trailer with CGI and no actual gameplay and GT fans all claim ownage....Foxhound don't even bother...waste of time.

We have no way yet of even knowing.

Because it looked like GT5P but slightly better.

This trailer did nothing but confirm that Polyphony is relying on the name Gran Turismo to push units. It is kind of touching in a way - hearkens back to an era when the name Gran Turismo was actually relevant.

You can prove it by looking at the low poly character models, cockpit view, zoom in on damage for emphasis, and the car models that look just like GT5: prologue. Have you played the game? (Prologue) And yes, Forza's most impressive scenes were from replay too. Same for Need for Speed Shift. They all look pretty impressive when in that mode.

Fact is forza is the best. Until a GT game out scores a forza game that won't change.

Sony fans are use to the smoke screen so it's no surprise that this gets them excited even though there's no release date and not one lick of actual game play footage.

I was absolutely amazed that it has 3 kind of racings in the game! Rally, NASCAR and Super Car. GT5 is going to be unbeatable.

both will be good

gt5 = the most complete sim racing game with all its cars, modes, race type and tracks

forza = unrivaled car customising, gameplay/graphics to match gt, xbland a good selection of cars and damage

hopefully GT will have damage across all race types and not just rally

Admittedly, I've noticed GT fans prefer to watch replay footage of their races than to play the actual races themselves. So from a GT fan perspective, its been a great day.

Yes it has but it would better that they focus on the cars, F1 is total crap in GT5P it's super arcady and if rally and nascar turns out to be the same then they are useless.

true but they probably have improved on it by now.

I think you could be right about this.

I figure if there is damage in the game, they would have made that a lot clearer then just 1 rally car (and if this game is anything like other GT games it's only 1 rally car).

Its about gameplay. Something we will have to wait and see. But so far forza has been winning.

if u have actually driven a real car...gt is actually the closest it comes to real driving..out of all games..its is the onyl game that feels like u r really driving

I Lol'd!

Maybe your the one that needs to drive a real car, and I'm not talking about 30mph speeds up and down streets. Take a car to a track and you will realise that your post is completely, utterly and unbelievably wrong.

forza 3 is probably the funner game, but gt5 is just in another class. GT represents a huge investment in realism, precision, and detail. If you're a casual gamer it might be difficult to appreciate those qualities especially since you have to forgive the fact that often times when there was a decision between gameplay and realism, realism won. To each his own, but there is just no comparing a run of the mill game like forza to an institution like GT
