I am anticipating GT5, I think it will be better then Forza 3 in every aspect and form.

Let's add up the comparison to the new enhancements from their prior releases

Forza 3 vs Gran Turismo 5

Quantity
F3 400 vehicles - GT5 over 800/1000

Quality
F3 slight improvment over Forza 2 - GT5 Huge improvement since GT4

Gameplay
F3 Same Physics, better online then F2, custom track created by game developer, ingame car view, and photo upload mode

GT5
WRC, NASCAR, D1/Drift, Drag racing, Simulated exact renderings of vehicles in sound and driving capabilites, motorcycles, private lobbys, and the wonderful GT Channel filled with car shows like Top Gear and Speed

Online
F3
pay to play

GT5
Free network

It comes down to the controller as well, no offense, but i feel the controller on the PS3 responds quicker then the 360

and finally it takes 1 PS3 to fully complete GT5 where as it'll take maybe 3-4 360's to complete a game of Forza due to the rrod lmaooo I had to throw that in anyway.

I'm happy to see competitive car series games back in action and ready to compare against each other. In the end I think GT5 will win hands down.

I don't know what it is about Forza but I have always liked it better than GT.

With their new damage model I'm hoping that will cut down on the Bumper cars multiplayer!

Forza 3 FTW!

We need to settle this. I've got both systems so everybody chip in a few bucks to buy me both games and I wil give an unbiased review. I take PayPal.

And like DevilZ said you may want to throw in a few more bucks for an extra 360 in case mine takes a dump during the review.

Hey, while people are at it, chip in a few bucks to me, and I can provide counterpoint to CBRich! I have both, and my 360 is battle-tested, guaranteed to not rrod! (pffffft.) Hopefully this thread doesn't turn into a x360 vs. ps3 shootout like all the other blogs are...but!

Devil Z:
-Sure GT5 has 800/1000 cars, but you have to filter down the models of each car. I remember reading and thinking, "WOW SO MANY CARS!" only to find I could choose one out of like 200 Nissan Skyline (TRIM LEVEL HERE). Also, while it IS amusing to drive around in a little Fiat Panda or equivalent Euro-box car with 90 hp, I hardly buy racing games for that. Having trucks available for racing is questionable as well (although if they let you drive OVER the competition, I might reconsider ).

-GT5 wins in the visual department, sure, I'll take it. But to me, gameplay is still in the Forza world, mostly for its better tuning capability. The cars actually responded differently, instead of all feeling like boats. At least they started with damage physics, too. GT has taken 5 iterations to get that little show going? Seriously, what the hell Polyphony?

-It's nice to have a bajillion ways to race, but the scope of the game is now ridiculous. WRC, Drift, NASCAR, and the typical GT race? That's basically four games in one! Yes, the common thought is "Yay four games for the price of one!" But development-wise, the scope creep is ridiculous. I will be surprised if they are able to make their targeted release date next year. Hopefully GT5 isn't the next DNF...If they do manage to pull this off, though, congrats, best race game ever in a nanosecond.

-I will say that the PS3 has the Logitech G25 controller, which is hands down the best piece of gaming hardware I have ever seen for racing sims. The Xbox equivalents look like rubbish in comparison :/

I'm all for my 360. Looking forward to getting Forza3. I have Forza2 right now. I'm hoping they update the Road Atlanta track since they have made some upgrades!!!

To each his own although, I am not a fan boy. I am supporting a better quality made game, look at it like this every GT game that was released was made better and more time consuming. Meaning Polyphony took years to give us this GT5, atleast a better trailer, regardless of how many cars, the point is they are taking long to make quality. Forza has released now going twice for the 360 and GT5 isn't even out yet, which is the first full made GT game on PS3. I won't make an arguement because everyone has their own opinions, likes, and dislikes. I just hope everyone enjoys the 370Z at full visual detailed scaled models in these games.

BTW I went through 5 Xbox 360s all with rrod and glitching problems. I've had my PS3 60GB since launch and never had a single problem.

Xbox 360 = Hyundai Genesis

PS3 = Nissan 370Z

lmaooooooo

There are no fanboy battles - I have both systems and will own both games... but its just that when you have a G25 wheel hooked up to your PS3 and are playing GT5p vs playing any of these games on a controller - the feeling is sublime... not to mention - most of the crap forza is adding is all gameplay based for the online support (which they do very well) but i will honestly say this - i will never ever be playing GT5 online - im getting it for the track and car simulation... seriously... graphics can go take a hike as long as every nut and bolt are being simulated - now polyphony has had 5 iterations and with each one dramatically builds upon the next. They already have in car cams with amazing rendering of the inside of the car... they already have such a realistic driving physics feel.

So yes... if you play online... then forza would probably better suited - but you pay to play it... but if all you care about is track sim and car sim... GT5 is where its at.

One thing I will also say is GT5P for PS3 had shitty online, like lag and the slightest bump in anyone's car and you would go flying into the grass. Even if you tried to not bump someone or evade them, if they touched you you would probably get like a 4 second penalty. I'm hoping online is much better then GT5p, if GT5 is better online wise the game will last. Forza's damage looks really great, my most favorite part of the game was damage, but when it comes down to simulation GT5 hands down.

Alright, Devil Z goes to darklocust. I'm looking for my next pick. Get those hands up, who wants to join? LOL.

I'm not sure that taking longer is a sign of a higher quality product but we just won't know until GT5 actually comes out. Either way I'll own both and I'm sure they'll both be great. And RROD has taken down two of my boxes so far.

To sum up: PS3 IS THE SUXOR, 360 TO THE DEATH!!!!!!!
