GT4 vs. GT5P Main Menu POLL

EAsports017 · Mar 2, 2009

Many of you have been asking for it, so here it is, a poll to determine which is the favorite; The GT4 "map menu" main screen, or the GT5P "scroll menu" main screen

I voted GT4 Map Style.

Personally, I prefer that style, mainly because I started with GT2, and That the Style I'm most used to, so......

The look of the GT5p interface is much better, with the gorgeous rendered backdrops.

However, the map style allows for a better layout of the game functions.

For career mode, I voted map.

G.T.Ace · Mar 2, 2009

GT Mode=Map
Arcade Mode=Prologues system

Tired Tyres · Mar 2, 2009

I voted Map but I like G.T.Ace's idea.

Watevaman · Mar 2, 2009

I voted GT5P's menu out of those two, but as I posted in the other thread:

Watevaman
I'm kinda changing my mind about this the more I think of it. Now what I want is a map, but not like GT4's map. This map would fit on the screen initially, but it would have "sections" that you could go to, where the game would proceed to zoom in (hopefully PD could accomplish this with no load times). Then, that area would be taking up the screen and you'd be able to do what you need to do.

To go a little further, but not necessary, it'd be cool if both car companies and tracks were in their respective regions.

The Map style easily :S, Gt5P's menu just dosent hold that epic feel but it has to be as epic as the Gt4 map prior to GT maps like Gt3's map was too small but still stuck to its roots so either way ill vote map

I voted GT4 Map but it will be great when you jump in your garage to have the GT5P Scroll Style!

GT4 Map ----> Garage ----> GT5 scroll menu.

What do you think?

Boffin · Mar 3, 2009

for the extra committed, there could also be a PS home style format - but I chose scroll

C-ZETA · Mar 3, 2009

I'd take the awesome map style.

Nicko · Mar 5, 2009

I like the scroll design in GT5 Prologue, seems easier to navigate.

Peter · Mar 5, 2009

Voted GT5P style. Don't you guys love seeing your car in the most beautiful places in the world while listening to the most beautiful menu music in the world?

Not a fan of the music myself,no.1 item on my agenda is to kill any BGM when firing up GT for the first time but the scrolling gt5p type is much easier to navigate the the frustrating gt3/4 map screen.

niky · Mar 6, 2009

The map is funky, but only if applied properly... I say scroll style for the main menu, then map style for the tracks, dealers and garage... I'd rather be able to navigate in 3D for those incredibly large menus I anticipate GT5 will have... (xx tracks, xx dealers and xxx cars? That'd be a pain to scroll through!)

otago · Mar 7, 2009

GT4 menu was awesome. Best in racing games I've ever seen

andrewyhy · Mar 10, 2009

I voted for GT4 Map style if for the GT (career) Mode, and GT5P scroll menu for Arcade Mode, the same as Vaxen and G.T. Ace.

Emet_PL · Mar 10, 2009

Map for GT Mode and scroll menu Arcade Mode (as always).

xStretch- · May 13, 2009

Map + new skin = win.

RAVELLRON · May 13, 2009

gt5p........ awensome grafic... imagine your car tuned with wheels and ride height low and new kind of backgrounds... the best...

detergent · May 13, 2009

I like the map menu, it gave you a sense that you were going to places around the world rather than navigate through confined spaces in a scroll menu.

A world map with all the tracks would give you a better sense of where all the tracks are actually located in the world, however the made up tracks would probably have to have their own section.

amar212 · May 13, 2009

I think somebody is deliberately mixing apples and peaches here, since it is more than clear that GT4 "World" menu and GT5

"Scene" menu have nothing in common.

GT4 World menu is part of Simulation mode, and has evolved from World menu of the first game.

GT5

Scene (scroll) menu is somehow evolution of Arcade mode menus from previous GT games.

So, comparing that two is comparing menus of 2 totally different modes. Any result that would come from voting have nothing to do with reality, purely because any kind of Scene menu could not represent complexity of World menu from any GT game, not even first GT.

But whatever.

RAVELLRON · May 13, 2009

ok but for me we will have the main page like scene menu in gt5 release, after there will be an icon (map) that will introduce you in another map menu...
scene menu wil be implemented at 100%, they build this idea, and they will keep it for gt5...

Yeah, it really made the game seem larger than it was. I'd also like to see the map return, but redone in a different style. Make it more detailed and appealing. Instead of showing a car icon for a manufacturer, show a dealership. Make my home look like an actual house instead of a Monopoly hotel. Showing the weather at different circuits around the world was a nice feature, so I'd like to see it in the full game. And make it glossy black like the menus in Prologue.

Raitziger · May 15, 2009

GT5 menus are too slow changing cars etc.

alba · May 15, 2009

I like both but I must admit the map system in GT4 was really unique and stand out quite a lot so, A mix of both would be cool for GT5 (and would make me redo my theme, yet again)
As amar said, it's two different thing so hopefully we get both!

xD

Aloha62_2 · May 15, 2009

map style please, i feel that gt5p lost far too much of GT's feel and atmosphere.

Antti-san · May 15, 2009

I prefer the map style. I'm sure the full game is going to have it, just like every other full version Gran Turismo game before.

yeti · May 15, 2009

Whatever - as long as the autosaving happens when I can't do anything anyway (i.e. when the new car is being shown... not afterwards... double waiting = lose.

I like the map style, because for some reason it gets me really excited, like i was a child.

Kryz11 · May 15, 2009

I want both!!
I love the GT5Prologe MY PAGE setup.
As well I love the GT4 map setup.

I believe we will have both.

For example. We will start with MY PAGE setup then we click on one ICON and we should see the MAP just like in GT4. That would work out great.
