I hope I will enjoy this game since sim racers usually bore me.

I still dont get what's so special about Gran Turismo. Yes it had its heyday back in the PSX era when they were the cream of the crop but Forza and other contenders have already trumped it.

Yes it has photorealistic graphics which were shown quite well by GT5 Prologue but its gameplay hasnt evolved much at all. I would think that the newer racing games including this new Forza will at least match or trump GT5 in the graphics department.

I dont get why Prologues for the PS2 and PS3 sell even though they're just glorified demos with the actual game a year or two away. Its just the GT name which is running the show.

I don't even like realistic racers as Forza 2 put me off but I still enjoyed it way better than GT5 Prologue with inexistent collision detection and boring gameplay.

So yes, im still looking forward for this

@ orionsaint
Not really considering we new about the extra episode for gta when they annouced the contract last year and forza was leaked( he just paid attention), there's no evidence to support a 360 mgs4 and because kojima said blu ray was a key factor in mgs4 creation I think its safe to say at this point if you want mgs4 your gonna need a PS3.

Anyway my freind loves this and GT so he will be in heaven when those games come out.

I think Microsoft purposely leaked this info. It's just too..perfect.

Rumors have it that GT5 will be unveiled at E3 with a release date also...

Interesting to see how this plays out. The speculation is 700 cars and 96 tracks for GT5.

@Gimic

No they aren't.

And Forza is miles better than GT, looking forward to this.

Forza physics are a joke, wonder how you came up with Forza being miles better than GT... especially considering GT5 isn't even out yet.

Oh yea I forgot, you're an XBOT on the internet, logic not required.

Nice to see that microsoft's willing to throw everything at Forza to try to beat GT. Yet, it's polyphony digital who did the in-dash for the GT-R, not MS or Turn-10.

Forza feels like Car and Driver TV compared to the GT series is more like... Top Gear(GT5 Prologue even has eps of TG available!... although any TG nut worth their salt knows where to go). Forza feels bland. If GT is a game about driving and racing enthusiasm, then Forza's like a book report on engine dynamics.

The difference in attitudes about racing and driving couldn't be any more different.

Example, Forza 2 has no real WRC spec cars. Forza's idea of a rally car are tuned factory Evos and fucking Subarus. (hint: the WRC champion for the last 5 years running has been a frenchie driving a french car. Citroen's not even in Forza. Also, MINE'S nor Tommy Kaira are rally teams; no Prodrive tuned subaru, no rally. period.)

No Rally, no F1, lacking classic car selection... There's just nothing there. Sure, Ferraris, but, screw Ferraris, I want to nitro tune a DeLorean!

(Also, Ferraris in GT HD, so, GT5 most likely WILL have ferraris. I'm hoping either game gets the Veyron.)
