The PSP game launched in 2010. The user you are replying to specified GT games released before the first Forza Motorsport game.
I'll net some hate for this (except amongst those in the know).
If MS only wanted to see some profits, they should've shut down Xbox over 15 years ago.

Another misinformed gamer. Oh, you don't think so? Explain the difference between revenue and profit.
From main article: "'We at PlayStation were beginning to think about what sort of hardware would be ideal for future consoles and what sort of algorithms would be running on it,' Cerny continued "and I'm not talking about immediate needs, we just shipped the PS5 Pro, I'm talking about years in the future." My ears perked up. Cerny has said that each console takes about four years of development. If Amethyst began development in 2023 then we might be seeing a new...

I think people like that may be really feeling lost and abandoned at this time. I'm being 100% serious about this, I'm genuinely worried about the effect this kind of news will have on the often hysterically overzealous Xbox fans who frequent this and other sites. They've turned Xbox into a personal best friend. To some of these people Xbox is probably like a living breathing person on life-support. It could explain those unusually aggressive posts by those user...
I don't think we should be picking on that user or any other thin-skinned Xbox "trolls" like that right now.
@crazyCoconuts
What if, and just hear me out... Xbox doesn't have a HW division to cut anymore?
Microsoft may be exiting gaming but don't let that be your reason to stop living.

This news is sad but it shouldn't ever become tragic.
I'm not joking about this. The level of attachment some tie their identity to brands may be deeply crippling.

I think at the root they're still gamers and are now finally seeing the folly of their support of the Xbox brand.
I can't believe people believe in "disc rot."
What plastics kept cool, dry and out of direct sunlight have ever rotted away?
I agreed, but I'm going to be specific about what I agreed with. Microsoft has the best PR team on Earth capable of bamboozling hundreds of millions of people. This is their one true accomplishment. Everything else you think MS accomplished was the result of their fantastic PR team's influence on you.
I agree that Windows is trash, but that won't keep me from correcting you. PS2, PSP, PS3, PS Vita, PS4, and PS5 are built on FreeBSD components which is apparently a totally different OS from Linux and PS1 probably also relied on FreeBSD as well. I think theDS and DSi, I know the 3DSes, and apparently the Switch 1 all use FreeBSD as a base for their system OS. Switch 2 likely also relies on FreeBSD. Android is a more complete OS than many core Linux distributions. It's good to know we...
There are already several games on Switch 2 coming up short in side-by-side comparisons. Cyberpunk 2077, Fortnite, and HogLeg are just the first examples with the first game in this list only having better image quality due to DLSS and slightly more stable performance due to that lower resolution than last gen systems enabled by DLSS, but having simplified models at mid distances and fewer NPCs roaming around than on PS4 or Xbox One.
In this case Digital Foundry is right. They didn't adequately explain or sound remotely confident when showing Switch 2's "visual" benefits in that HogLeg comparison was related to loading. Yes, sometimes two massive world segments can be connected by a smaller individual loading zone like how Jak 2 handled open world zones on PS2. There is a small room that in itself is it's own discrete loading zone that you wait inside as the next massive portion of the map loads in....
It's pretty clear that Switch 2 isn't more powerful than PS4 Pro. Is the base model PS4 being beaten? Well, Switch 2 is hardly ever actually being compared to the base model PS4, but seeing as how it's yet to outperform PS4 Pro in basically any other way than loading data into RAM in video comparisons. I have to assume the individual developer being interviewed has very little experience with PS4 and Xbox One.
Switch 2 sits somewhere close to Xbox One and PS4 and I'm not talking about last generation's enhanced models either. The evidence is provided by the video. Switch 2's native rendering resolution doesn't even compare favorably to last generation systems. Loading content much faster and is about the only real next generation thing about Switch 2 compared to last gen home consoles.
Why wpuld that be surprising? SanDisk created the standard amd has the most expensive cards.
Doesn't improve HDR above 450 nits.
GT is still undisputed in the realm of consumer-level racing simulation software. Not just on consoles but everywhere that ignores specialized sim racing rigs that typically cost over $30k to make.
