Project CARS Vs Forza 5 Graphics Comparison

One Angry Gamer "For Xbox One owners the decision to stick with Forza Motorsport 5 or switch over and purchase Project CARS might be a difficult one. However, if graphics are the bread and butter of your gaming desires and everything else comes second, there’s a nifty graphics comparison between the two games to at least give you an idea as to what the disparity is like between Turn 10 Studios’ title and Slightly Mad Studios’ title."

Bigpappy4018d ago (Edited 4018d ago )

When you view this comparison, keep in mind that Forza 5 is 1080p and PC is at 900p. Having pointed that out, I hope you also keep in mind that Forza may still be a much better game due to content and the way it handles with Ai behavior, physics and what not. PC could not only look better but also be the better game overall. I have not played either. Just wanted to chime in on the graphics discussion before people blindly start bashing or overly praising either base on graphics, which is really a limited part of the entire game.

Forza does seem to have much better interior judging for this vid and maybe better crowds.

aceitman4018d ago

why not compare it to xboxone instead of pc

LostDjinn4018d ago

Both versions are xbone footage.

@ pappy...so you can tell the difference between 900p and 1080p now? Nice.

Bigpappy4018d ago

@Lost: I knew the resolution for just paying attention when the article are sub mitted. The point was that PC looks more vibrant and sharper, yet Forza has the higher resolution. It's a teachable moment.

LostDjinn4018d ago

Yeah right. Just one thing though...your comments don't match.
You first is an attempt to defend Forza for looking worse. The second was an attempt to deflect your hypocrisy being pointed out.

Quick tip: When you treat everyone as stupid you just end up looking silly. I understand your reliance on BS at his point but it'll profit you naught. You don't need to be this way. You'll find respecting yourself enough to be honest with others is a far more enjoyable way to get through life.

PrinceOfAnger4017d ago

this is ps4 Project Cars looks better imo.

Moldiver4017d ago (Edited 4017d ago )

@LostDjinn

Your comments make no sense. Just sounds like you are picking an argument with pappy. Its common knowledge that PCars on X1 is 900P. He, and most others ..including you obviously, would not be able to tell the difference,

Of course he is gonna point out that one is 1080P and the other is 900P. May aswell get it out there because any PSfans that show up in this thread will more than likely say PCars looks better simply because Pcars is not the MS exclusive, here. Same people who will forget that FM5 runs its 60FPS far better than Pcars on x1..or PS4. Neither version is as consistent as FM5 with its frame rate. FACT.

LostDjinn4017d ago

Moldiver...?
You say my comments don't make sense and then validate what I said? The thought patterns of some really do astound me sometimes.

That was one of the most entertaining "own goals" I've witnessed in an attempt at damage control. Thanks.

IamTylerDurden14017d ago (Edited 4017d ago )

This comment is for - Moldiver - Actually this is Project Cars on PS4 if u watched the entire vid you would know. PS4 Project Cars runs 1080p and i believe 60 frames so you are watching the same thing 1080p vs 1080p, obviously they picked PS4 bc xbone is not powerful enough to run at 1080p, xbone is 900p.

Get your facts straight or watch the whole vid before you try and tell people they can't tell the difference between 1080p and 900p - we can tell the difference just look at all the multiplat games on PS4 & xbone, big difference between full res and sub res.

LostDjinn4017d ago (Edited 4017d ago )

Tyler, if it's ps4 footage then I've gotten it wrong in my reply to ace. For this I apologize unreservedly Ace.

I have this game on PC and that is not PC footage of PC. O_o

Edit: Seems strange they'd use PS4 instead of...no...wait. Hits come first yes? MSXBOXWORLD, sorry cram gaming (yes MS relieved them of that domain) should be ashamed. They won't but they should.

"I have not played either."

"I hope you also keep in mind that Forza may still be a much better game due to content and the way it handles with Ai behavior, physics and what not. PC could not only look better but also be the better game overall."

"Just wanted to chime in on the graphics discussion"

How does any of that comment make any kind of sense, you haven't played the games, yet you're chiming in on what is obviously gameplay and mechanics as if you know how both play. And neither of those topics has anything to do with graphics comparisons which is what the video was about. And if you want to get into nitpicking Forza has a large budget and a publisher backing it, Project cars was funded by the developers themselves and crowd funding, and PC has way more cars on screen at once, both of which are also factors that you neglected to add.

OT: Both games are in the same ballpark graphically. There's things each does better than the other, PCars has better time of day (but could have just been settings), better Anti Aliasing, better color, and more track details. Forza has a slightly better interior view, better grass, and overall the enviornment seems consistent graphically whereas PCars seems a bit off. But again PCars is doing more, with it's weather system and more cars on screen.

Graphically speaking both games are near equals; however, Forza 6 should surpass PCars.

* Why not focus on Gameplay Comparison.

Doesn't that matter more ?

Absolutly love project cars, loving formula 1, play the foza games ands 5 on xbone its its not given me the wow factor u guys had but yeah cant get enough of P.C, Already put more time into it than F5. Won't last got F1 15 soon.

uth114018d ago

PC looks better in most cases here, but not by a huge amount

Rookie_Monster4018d ago

Keep in mind Forza 5 is a launch game. FORZA 6 will be Turn-10 crown jewel like what Forza 3 was on X360.

4017d ago
Svinya4017d ago

Don't you mean Forza 4 on the 360? That was the best looking one... and compared to the launch Forza 2, it looked a whole generation ahead.

The rise and fall of Project CARS

With exclusive insight from Slightly Mad Studios co-founder Ian Bell, we dive into the tumultuous history of Project CARS.

TheColbertinator252d ago

The 3rd one just pushed me away forever.

GamingExplained101251d ago

The third one was the best racing game in years. You can make it as realistic or arcade as you like, with tons of options to meet the performance points for each race. The graphics were great on PS5, running at 60 FPS 1440p on quality mode, it was certainly good enough. It was a lot like the Forza games, just more flexible in its sim and arcade options to cater the game to how you wanted to play, it's absolutely criminal how this game was trashed by losers who didn't get it and wanted to hate on it.

Why did EA Kill Project CARS?

This video explains why we think Electronic Arts didn't see a future in the sim racing title Project CARS and promptly cancelled the fourth instalment.

Jin_Sakai1292d ago

After the last installment I’d say most hardcore fans left. It’s just not that good anymore so I can’t really blame EA this time.

masterfox1292d ago

because it was always a project and it never got finished :D

ChubbyBlade1290d ago

Every game is a project. Your joke doesn’t make sense

InUrFoxHole1289d ago

It makes perfect sense. It's obviously a play on the title. Jesus christ you must be a blast at parties.

ApocalypseShadow1291d ago (Edited 1291d ago )

Ask Bullfrog or Black Box or Tiburon or Studio 33 or Criterion or any of the previously acquired developers who made racing games as competition, or as developers of EA games, then eventually dissolved into oblivion or reassigned. Just ask them. They'll tell you why.

ApocalypseShadow1290d ago

Oh. I forgot. Even Code Masters were absorbed into Criterion. Another racing developer EA took over.

Every racing developer either absorbed by EA or eventually destroyed by them. They either kill competition or have them in the end make Need 4 Speed for them.

MadLad1290d ago

EA only cancels projects for one reason.
They didn't see enough money in it.

Kombatologist1290d ago (Edited 1290d ago )

Not when it's because it didn't meet some crazy margin. It's like if something doesn't make EA a billion dollars on day one (I'm exaggerating that figure of course), they swiftly put it out to pasture.

SurgicalMenace1290d ago (Edited 1290d ago )

Much like if you're spending money on what's a bad investment for your desired goals, you'd do away with it, if you're wise. We should try to get away from thinking we know more about business than individuals that have been doing it for decades. Perhaps you could benefit from going into business instead of wasting all of your talents in comment sections. It's clear that you're the missing piece that EA's been looking for.

MadLad1289d ago

I've made a good amount of money betting on underdog investments over the years.

EA sets unrealistic expectations of their more niche developers, yet continue to fund absolute blunders like DICE and the Battlefield series year after year.

dumahim1290d ago

EA butted in and messed with the formula and act shocked when it doesn't work out.

Original Project CARS creator trying to re-hire EA team

Ian Bell, the founder of Slightly Mad Studios, is aiming to hire former Project CARS employees to work on his upcoming GTR Revival project.

Sgt_Slaughter1293d ago

If it's just going to be another sim-cade that doesn't do either one correctly then no thanks.

Project CARS 2 was a step in the right direction but the physics still aren't where they should have been, so what did they do for PC3? Go completely arcade. That killed the franchise.
