Cystal Clear! Benchmark Graphics! Topnotch Details! Fantastic In-Car Camera Angle...
This is not the problem, it's the extreme violence that you should focus on.
What a difference an in-car camera makes to get the perspective of driving in the correct viewpoint. Just what I'ved said before - this should be made as { standard feature } on all games concerning driving/racing.
One of the more unforgivable error Turn 10/Forza2 ever did of not implementing this on their game, even though they had reasoned out it's because of the number of vehicles/features available.
It's just not good enough., and you call your game real-simulation...
All hail the benchmark, all hail GranTurismo... All condemn the jealous ones, all blast the competition...
Buy a machine that plays both formats - end of story.
Sweet! A bit of a dodgy shot, but you can tell the in-car camera viewpoint looks incredible.
I agree it's a pity the sixaxis pad has'nt got rumble which is badly needed on this game.
Especially with all the banging and crashing on the different terrains and opponents, it must feel kind of empty not feeling ( that ) part of the game.
One reason could be that this game was so over-commercialized, overdone/used on a few times for the PS2.
And the real World Rallye Championship at the moment is a two-man show, dominated on by Sebastian Loeb/Citroen C4 and Marcus Gronholm/Ford Focus and not much else. Subaru is down while Mitsubishi is out ( a no-show ). So how can you sell a proper WRC game on this basis?
Probably once more rallye cars are in place, a better computer game would be made.
Ye...
Only stupid need apply. Bring on GTR2 for XBox 360/PS3
Will definitely be on my lists of must-haves once this game ( the real GranTurismo 5, not Prologue or HD ) comes-out and I will finally get myself a PS3 console now that things are looking-up for Sony with the recent price-cuts, more games plus old/pre-owned slashed to bargain, return of rumble and an added feature on the sixaxis pad.
Remember when the very first GranTurismo came-out, I must have been spending so much time on playing this game, could'nt remember what day or time it...
Fanboy/girlism is the equivalent of an extreme form of sales personship
with pure ignorance and utter stupidity thrown in.
At least for a sales rep, it's only a job and they actually get to hog different types of products. But for these people, it's a life. Most of them
don't even write properly ( they're still writing in text or using icons/emoticons ) when reviewing games and gadgets. Which just goes to show how short their attention spans are, and the more reason ...
Definitely GranTurismo 5, have'nt bought my PS3 yet - but will, once this monster of a game comes-out!
On the review about the categories:
> Can't be helped, it's to each and everyone's preferences about their console of choice
> This has already changed in some countries - Sony has cut the prices on a few ( U.S., Canada...soon Europe, Asia, Australia )
> Wrong and just plain lies. With a lot of games coming very soon, there should...
Believe many have already seen a few actual in-game video clips for ( PGR4 ), on GranTurismo 5 ( in their trailer - there's one quick shot of an in-game clip ).
Sad to say though that Forza 2 cannot compete w/these 2 up-coming next-gen titles ( on graphics alone anyway... ).
It will definitely be: ( 1 ) GranTurismo 5
( 2 ) Project Gotham 4
I have to ask this question to everyone out there as I'm getting confused by Sony's co...
One word - PORN
Jealous PC snobs... the lot of you.
Now it's really starting to look very good for the PS3.
Price-cut ( check ), a lot of cool games coming very soon
( check ), definite return of rumble plus unconfirmed bonus
feature ( check ).
Good on you Sony. Once GranTurismo 5 comes-out that'll be it.
I'll be getting myself a PS3.
That's a heap of really good innovation and cool features that Bizarre Creation has put in PGR4. Saw the screens, seen a few videos and must say it is very impressive.
The line-up of vehicles are very impressive, GranTurismo 5 definitely is one of the more important titles that will ever come-out for the PS3.
Jealous Bugger...
Top 10 games ( sold over America - only ) for the rest of 2007, should have been the better headline.
