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...
Looks like PD has the potential to set the bar for closing out always online games.
Back when GT Sport launched you couldn't do anything when you couldn't access the servers, but it looks like GT Sport will retain access to SP race modes, custom races, VR, your full garage, and all tracks. This is much more than what was available at launch if offline.
We still will lose custom liveries and race suits, which is nonsense, but hey if you share them online now...
From Gran-Turismo.com (the article liked above): "All existing cars and personalized Car Settings kept in Garage will be accessible. Gameplay progression required as normal to unlock additional cars and items."
So... yes, as far as I can tell you'll still be able to use all your collected and purchased cars and race on all the tracks in the game and unlock ones you might not already have access to. That's what I'm getting from the post, but time will t...
Meanwhile from AMD: "A future new member of the AMD FidelityFX SDK
All our AMD FidelityFX technologies are included in the new AMD FidelityFX SDK we released in June, so we’re really excited that we will soon be adding FSR 3 to the FidelityFX SDK, alongside our existing FSR 1 and FSR 2 upscaling solutions.
In case you missed this news, the FidelityFX SDK makes it easier for you to integrate all our FidelityFX technologies (shaders and runtime code) into your D...
Only streams from your PS5 collection when PS5 is on.
Improving civil infrastructure, which is what taxes were made to do in the first place. Yeah, taxes have a place. Government forgot what to do with our money when they discovered they can just take it and put it in their own savings account... they discovered that about 120 years ago in the U.S.
PS Portal is $200, which is $200 less than Steam Deck. Steam Deck can do more without another system, but Portal was never even suggested to be a PS5, it is just a gamepad for PS5 with a screen that streams content from your own PS5. Portal is what Steam Link is in the form of an actual stand-alone product of its own.
PSAS:BR is a totally different take on Smash. The gameplay loop is pretty similar overall, but how you score is completely different. Also Smash copied level merging from PSAS:BR... so, there is that.
Move was demoed years before the controller was made. Remember Richard Marks actually using everyday objects to manipulate virtual things in the game world? That was what Move was supposed to be... yeah that was in 2004! Two years before Wii launched, hm, who copied who. Even ...
Define "high-end."
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.
