Maybe I am expecting too much from T10, but that lens-flare is ridiculous. The time of day never changes in F5, so why is it they cannot get a more realistic look to lens-flare? There is also the horrible disappearing track details in the rear-view mirror, the bumper-car physics, and the cartoony more colorful than real life color palate. Then there is the jerking back and forth that if you did that in a real car or in another racing game on a rival platform that I won't mention, you wou...

I agree, it looks silly. Not to mention they never come off the steering wheel. Then there is the jerking back and forth that if you did that in a real car or in another racing game on a rival platform that I won't mention, you would lose control. The floaty, driving on ice feel has IMO been with every Forza that I have played.

Agreed. My PSV has been sitting inside my couch console for months now. I know that when I get my PS4 that will be the day that my PSV has renewed value for me.

Today's comment is brought to you by the letter "R" as in read. Can you say "before I make a silly fanboy comment, I will READ the article 1st?" Otherwise, I will look like a Forest, Forest Gump with a lower IQ.

I am getting a PS4 and I find this story hilarious. Amazing that unreleased hardware and work in progress OS malfunctioned, because that has NEVER happened before right Stuntz? /s

I would find it equally hilarious and inconsequential if this happened to the XbOne.

This happened because we took god out of schools, or because gays can get married in some places, or because it's Obama's fault.

Yep, one of those is the REAL reason why the PS4 did not respond. ;-P

"The problem though is Turn 10 doesn't put a lot of emphasis into wheel users. They feel its roughly 5% of their consumer base so time is better spent in other aspects like Vista mode. "I couldn't disagree with them more.""

Which is fine, however it is unrealistic for reviewers to view this game as a sim racer, when this glaring fact is ignored. GT is designed to work with the wheel, the controller is not the primary focus. Though even with a contr...

Greetings Brutally,

I am curious, do you get that "floaty" feel when driving cars in Forza? For me, the car feels slightly detached to the road, as if the weight of the car is not really there. It becomes very evident to me especially on turns where the car feels as if it is a cross between sliding on ice and floating. It is this detached feel of the car to the road that is my biggest complaint about the Forza series.

The sense of speed seems a litt...

Not a sim, Turn 10 said so.

Real time damage system? Are you sure? Can you be specific? Do you mean real-time physics based deformation?

To my knowledge, Forza has always had damage where it changes models regardless of the angle of impact, the velocity and the force applied to the relative speed.

IMO, the colors are a little bit to colorful, it takes away from the realism to me. Also, every Forza I have played I feel as if the car is floating just above the track.

@Enemy

I don't think it is weird, rather I think it is very telling as to what state the xbone version is. It is either not as far along, or it does not look as good, or both. That for me is the only logical explanation.

It is a valid question, which as of yet an answer for has not been given. Don't you ever get tired of devs dumbing down the PS version so that it is on par with the xbox version?

I know I do.

@blackmonone

Flame wars are inevitable when dealing with console parity or in this case the lack thereof. To criticize someone for asking a legitimate question in the hopes of avoiding another flame war is pointless and silly imo.

My store had 120 PS2 preorders for comparison. Woodfield mall Funcoland ( now Gamestop) Chicago burb Illinois. It was the store with the most preorders out of any store in the Chicago area. I had a Japanese modded PS2 that I brought to my store on a regular basis so that I could increase preorders. I even had the unreleased Madden 2001.

300 is ridiculous. PS4 will dwarf any console launch before it I m o.

Indeed. I love they way they just talk about the game, and not the competition (I'm looking at you Dan Greenwalt)

Thank you for posting the links.

@viveks86

No, there is nothing wrong with it. However for me, it seems that whenever Dan opens his mouth, he has to beat his own chest in a very pompous manner while dissing the competition. Some humility is in order for him, and for MS in general.

There are so many things tha...

Notice how the reflectors of the guardrails light up individually as the light from the car comes into contact with them. There are so many little details that this game is showing it is ridiculous. And this is a launch game. I cannot even imagine what it will look like when they add weather after launch.

The sense of speed is very well done as well. And that cockpit view, the detail is astounding. Very impressed I am. The subtle changes in the view of the cockpit as the susp...

It is an interesting idea. I am curious as to what enhancements this new tech will bring.

However it is all meaningless if these triggers are not backed by the POWAH OF TEH CLOUDZ /s

Developer tools. The SDK's developer tools are continually upgraded throughout a console's lifespan. That is what they mean.

Violence = OK
Sex = Bad

I would much rather my sons 11 and 8 see a nice pair of boobs over seeing a head get chopped off. Sex is a part of life, it puzzles me as to why we have no problem with our children watching people get hurt and die, yet show them a nipple, and all hell breaks loose.

@Fluke

Yes, I know. I remember when I lived in Germany that naked bodies were no big deal, nor was talking about sex on TV. Violence was much more...
