I originally found the story on gtplanet but after submitting it realized it was originally from 1up so I tried to correct it but once it's submitted I can't change the topic. On gtplanet, that is the title header...If you are too arrogant to forgive me then so be it. You seem to be hated by 99% of the community as it is with all your flamebait and rude comments so I am not sure why I even care for your opinion.
"Off topic"- this is my 1st story and it got approved! Thank you N4G!
On topic...
Sony and Microsoft seem to be in the same hall...this could make for some interesting topics later on like the earlier one with Bungie guys playing Uncharted 2. Maybe Halo Reach is at TGS and some sony guys are checking it out. I got no problem with one company playing a game that is direct competition. So excited for TGS!!
Microsoft stated from the beginning that the 360 is meant for a 5 year life span. That 5 years comes up in 2010 fyi. So why on earth would the spend money on coming out with a new version of their console when they could be spending money on their "next xbox" (720 w/e you want to call it for now). This is strictly for hits and to be throwing out complete speculation. There isn't a single thing that makes this even the slightest bit believable or probable.
Are "I did not murder him" and "Turn 10 studios" roommates? They seem to always agree with each other but its moreso that its so many quick responses to each other. It's like they are telling one another "dude i posted, back me up". I've heard ducks fly together, but I never knew fanboys did as well to this extent.
The other day, I headed to my nearest gamestop to preorder Uncharted 2(got into the beta bec of it and it's awesome) as well as GOW collectors. I already had both games but come on, a collectors edition fully remastered in 720p, trophies, and now confirmation of GOW3 demo. Things just keep getting better. Thank you Sony.
Microsoft doesn't even have a press conference. Apparently from articles around the net they are telling the journalists "not to worry, we have plenty to show" but with no press conference, how much are they going to keep behind closed doors? Microsoft doesn't have a large market in Japan whereas Sony and Nintendo do. The show starts at 6:30pm pacific with Sony's Press Conference which I can just imagine how big it's going to be in terms of news, footage, and maybe a few surprises. ...
You are probably right but do you not find that a bit of a distraction to say the least? Also, porsches come in MPH, that's a fact. If they were using the german car I believe the driver would be on the right side correct? In the video, he's on the left-hand side which clearly has American written all over it. Not that having it in KP/h is a big deal/mistake because of this. It's just that for me personally, looking at Forza 3 as a sim I could see myself turning the HUD off (if it's an option...
This is showing the E3 09 trailer back from like May or June. Is this considered actually new? They did nothing more then write a summary about the old E3 trailer. Regardless, I think this is in pretty direct competition with Blur which was pushed back 2010. Both look like the new style of burnout in terms of arcade style games.
Turn 10 claims that they have "working" speedometers in the cars. I noticed that the speedometer in the porsche was working but it was ALWAYS different from the main HUD speedometer. I am confused, which one is right?
Look at the in-car speedometer and the main large HUD one on the bottom right to see what I am talking about. That's the only major concern I have. Other then that, the game looks pretty sweet and runs really frickin smooth.
Edit: Is that kil...
"We at Gamereactor International are saddened by how some people treat game journalists, which is hardly isolated to this particular case, and hope that at some point people will start to realise what a review is - the opinion of one person."
I mean to an extent yes the review is based on his opinion but his job as a game journalist is not to think only for himself. Good game journalists (from IGN) review games with a non-biased opinion as well as how others would see i...
It's one thing to take someone's image, resave it and reupload it. It's a whole another thing to take the EXACT same link and put it into your comment as if you had it. That's just plain rude and against the brother code. Already I have lost respect for you. Sorry that this is off topic but I had to say something to set things straight.
On topic, I have said it before and will say it again. Let's wait til TGS, which is like 1 day considering wednesday evening here is already thur...
With so many great characters each with a full unique background as to where they come from and why they are how they are...there's no doubting this series can't go on. In the future I see a full fledged movie based off of each game so Drake's Fortune would be the first movie then the sequel and so on. As well as more peripherals like action figures and everything. This franchise has a lot of room to grow and be one of the greats.
I see Microsoft coming out with a new console before then. In my opinion I would be VERY surprised if Microsoft doesn't announce a new console at E3 2010. It would be there 5 year life-span that the 360 was supposed to have and the PS3 would be 4 years old. PS3 is claiming to last 10 years (PS2 did it so why can't PS3) so I doubt that by mid 2010 PS3 will overtake Wii/360 in sales (if that's what determines the console war) but I do see a new Wii HD coming out around then too.
PS...
First off, thank you Jamaican :)
As for you Chaz, we have all been giving our opinion but we have been doing so in a considerate and mature way. Way to ruin the comments with flamebait.
Sorry man, beat you to it. Plus, I put it together in one jpeg so you can compare without having to open a new tab. Nice try though :) At least we have the same idea and thoughts...GT5 wins in this case.

Here are some screenshots that are even better in terms of comparison. The difference in lighting and the scenes are vast. However, once again it is hard to compare in-engine videos with one another. I say wait for TGS and we will see some great footage from both games. Here is the link to the image though. Enjoy !

So I watched both videos and tried to find a spot in which they were most similar in the case of lighting and angle of the vehicle. Unfortunately the closest angle I could find was these captures. Not the best angle but gives you an idea on the lighting. Graphically, Forza isn't up to par with GT5 from these videos but let's wait to see in-game comparison's side-by-side before we go ranting that one is better than the other.
Screen cap.
Oh and for the heck of it.

Let me fix that...
"This was actually a pretty respected swedish game mag"
See what I did there.
Breakfast was illogical but he was funny and clever. Most of posts that "I did not murder him" makes aren't funny and would either be considered flamebait or spam. Notice how breakfast got agrees with his irrational yet funny comments but "I did not murder him" gets mostly disagrees. The community seems to have spoken and given their opinion. I just happen to agree.
