Also, 9.4, 9.2, 9.5, 8.7(GT5P is not included because it's not a full release). I fail to see how up, down, up(highest), down is a downward pattern. If you had argued that the latest release of GT did much worse than the 1st 3 of the series, then you would have a valid point.

Oh, and if you average out GT series, they average 9.2. Forza only manages 9.15. I like how you try to compare a full game to a game that only has maybe 15% of the total content...But hey, at least you can live life knowing both of your precious Forza games scored higher than GT4 in the critic's rating. Congrats on beating the least innovative game of the series, lol.
Don't waste your time, he's a fan boy who doesn't understand common knowledge. He'll probably call you a name like he calls me cleo, since he knows he get's owned on every response.

Here's an interview all GT5 haters can suck on when the day comes and GT5 breathes into our PS3s.

Note. No release date yet, but every question is answered pretty well. Vehicle deformation all vehicles, tracks, day night racing, fully customizable vehicles, Nascar reality etc etc. check it out.

I have not read all the pages in this thread, but have had a lot of seat time with both games. The physics on Forza are waaayyyyyy better than GT. GT looks waaaayyyy more clean than Forza though, and they have good force feedback steering wheels (G25), which gives them the win in my opinion. What's the point of a racing sim without a USB FB steering wheel?
The buttons on the PS3 controller are pressure sensitive, but the wheel, pedels, and FB take it to a whole new level of simulation. Pair that with a sim cockpit, and digital TV, and the fun factor goes waaayyyyy up.

I think Prologue was a cash grab that was way overpriced for what we got. I was more than seriously disappointed with it. Polyphony really has taken too long to bring this game to market. Every fall the rumor mill starts that the game is coming for x-mas, or spring, and it never does. I agree that this launch has been an epic failure. You can't drag out the launch of a game for 3 years, unless the game is going to be the second coming.... And I truly hope that it is. I hope they finally get the physics right, and that it's not just a re-hash of GT4.

All that being said.... I'm sure I'll be in the sim seat in time attack mode the first week it comes out.

Your opinion is exactly what I respect, I don't want to argue points and go search up topics to prove points. I'm glad you see the two games the way you see them and have an honest opinion about both. In my eyes I believe GT5 will change video games and racing sims to the point we have wished to see. PD have the all the credit and sales to prove it, but with 5 years in the making i'm am more then sure this game is not your average game. This is a game to set new limits TRUST ME I promise you.

here is my take : forza simulates and shows MANY more physical interactions between road and car... however- they do not have a physics system thats precise enough to actually make the car behave as it would on a road... my problem w/ Forza - they try too many things which makes it unrealistic but w/ GT you get incremental differences which have been carefully calibrated / tested

I love GT5 physics by a mile, Prologue outplayed Forza in every aspect, critics rated it low bcuz it was a demo. GT5 will shut everyone up, just the date is hard to bear.

Personally, I think it comes down to if you have a PS3 or a 360. If you have a 360, Forza 3 is the game you should grab. If you have a PS3, you should be pretty excited for GT5.

I see people yelling over which is better all the time and I just roll my eyes. As someone who has played both series inside and out... yeah. They are pretty much neck and neck.

I have both systems. If anyone here is a Forza nut, better check out the forums about online play changes before you put your money down. Lots of anger over there--me being one of the banned ones myself...

no unfortunately not, i heard rumors of a future port. I don't think Sony would give up exclusive rights of Gran Turismo. The Demo will be out Dec 17 with a release date of march 30 2010. I'm buying GT5 and BFBC2 that month yay.
