I don't think DF will be objective on this one. If they give GT7 the credit it deserves and say it is number 1, I would honestly be taken aback a bit.
For the time being some Taiwanese dude has been doing the heavy lifting for DF.

Just look at the trainwreck that FM23's graphics actually are... and it's not just the ...
I can see that now... I have an Xbox 360 and own FM4 as well. That game had more going on and even had drag racing which GT5 and 6 didn't have on PS3, if I recall correctly. Now FM is a faint shadow of what it once was... but somehow it's 10/10? WTF?
More like a 5. A mediocre game with more bugs than any prior FM title... maybe it deserves a 4/10?
FM23... really a 10/10?

You sure?
All this proce gouging is so ridiculous... I'm gping to jump tp the most expensive rip-off of a platform ever conceived, the Windows-powered PC.

"I agree with Jin.
At best, Sony didn't think it through.
At worst... They did.
The pricing really doesn't make sense. It almost feels like a punishment for adopting the console late."
Or maybe the new storage costs more plus inflation and the weak Yen (PS' connections with Sony and the very weak Japanese economy right now)? Who would've thunk a terrible global economy would...
@--Onilink--
The new system is cheaper to make... then they added 250GB of the same superfast storage PS5 already had...
$30 saved in production against how much for those new NAND storage chips?
Maybe they're still breaking even on PS5 due to inflation and trying to at least keep up with Xbox's base 1TB of storage?
Has anyone but me considered that?
Probably not.
PS2 had a stand that cost $49.99 if I recall correctly... But clearly, the PS2 didn't need that stand at all! Time will tell if PS5 slim really needs the stand or not. It might not and if that's the case. The extra $40 you don't need to spend shouldn't be a concern living in your head.
Yeah this was definitely one of those "Why wasn't this available at launch?" Features missing from PS5's OS.
Wonder if DF will have the balls to really lay into FM23 on YT with a critical video lambasting the downgrad?
I doubt it.
@IamFrasierCrane
The two best looking racing games are number 1 Driveclub and 2 Gran Turismo 7, in that order.
I agreed with your comment overall...
But I'm curious. Where does FM23 exceed GT7 visually speaking?
The reveal demo wasn't all that impressive on its own to be honest. Even so, I knew Xbox Series X couldn't handle what they were claiming based on visuals of similar titles made by several far more talented devs with proven track records making stunning titles couldn't manage on PC, PS5 or Xbox Series X yet. Turn 10 was always at the bottom of the barrel. I knew this after playing FM4 on Xbox 360.
I warned everyone I could... but it wasn't enough. To be fair...
Then this is confirmed... I did this to MSFS2020 and my posts were instantly erased. I also had a harsh take about the Xbox App on PC itself which MS didn't like so much and it wouldn't let me even post the review about the freaking Xbox App.
You didn't forget FM4 or 5 either, eh?
Glad I'm not the only one.
I love this video! Shinyodd is a long-time Forza Horizon fan as well.
FM5 demoed by Jimmy Fallon v. the actual FM5 game...
Yeah, Turn 10 are no strangers to the downgrade.

Gran Turismo - 90+ million units sold
Gets raked across the coals for having some 2D trees despite being made for VR and having multiple 120FPS modes for people on TVs.
Forza Intellectual Property (Motorsport and Horizon combined) - ~18 units sold.
Basically every single reviewer claims FM23 looks better and has more realistic physics than GT7. And even though FM23 is a complete and total mess on PC, is an always online game that require...
@Hypertention140
It's real. FM2-7 all use the highest resolution car meshes the game has only on the player car in photo mode. You can get full resolution models using the PC extreme setting, but again that only applies to the player car and the interiors are still not fully realized. This is why starting photomode incurs a lengthy load in all FM games.
That all said, the best car models in Forza Horizon 5 (amd by extention Forza Motorsport 2023) have car model...

The above comparison looks at FM23 car models. And also tracks which includes real world images for comparison. GT7 vs real life vs FM23. Which one wins... real life of course... but of the two games GT7, obviously. Don't think so?
