The car looks much smaller in scale in GTS. Also, what's going on with the windshield wiper in Forza?

 

[GTFraker]

GTS rep is better (homer pick).

 

[Strax]

GTS takes the win by far. Forza 7 was quite the disappointment to me, luckily I tried it at a friend's before buying it.

 

[De_Breuk]

What I like is that the way the car behaves when cornering looks similar in both games. The FM one looks a bit more stable. I don’t know how it feels because I have never played FM7 though.

You should see the shaking rear view mirror in some cars in FM7, it's super annoying and unrealistic.

Neither really matches the sound of the real Alpine, though GTS is a bit closer. The exterior sound on both is totally wrong, the real A110 has a throaty growl:

The modeling is better in GTS imo. I noticed the polygons on FM7's steering wheel (which had a thicker loop for some reason), and FM7 for whatever reason (and on other cars as well) is missing the exterior mirror. Also, GTS and FM7 clearly modeled different A110 bases as they have different exhausts.
Other than that... yeah. Both sound alright.

Also, @tofuhero tha's not a stock A110 though so i'm not sure we can quite compare it to how the games portray it. However yeah it does sound throatier.

 

[TomBrady]

Flawless victory for GT Sport.

Yeah, I've watched a few different videos and the general timbre of the sound is the same though. For instance this is probably a stock 1600S:

 

[GranTurismo guy]

I like how the thing that grabs me most is that there's two exhaust exits on Forza and one on GT

 

[TheAdmiester]

Having compared both with footage of the real thing, I'd say Forza gets it closest in sounds. In particular it sounds best at high revs, where GTS sounds like it's just an up-pitched version of the mid-rev sample.

 

[Ande3200]

Forza motorsport 7 has ruin the car sounds. Most of the cars sounds Much better in gts

 

[Strax]

The guy says it's a Group 3 A110S, so the sound it makes can't be used as comparaison.

EDIT: you already clarified a few posts above but the page wasn't updated, my bad

...not just wiper, look at those rear mirrors, spoiler and exhaust, as if they are going to fell of lul...

 

[Harry Freq]

Scary how much better GTS looks especially the car model. I hope that is the og Xbox and not the X

...only difference is in resolution, since xBOneX is 4x stronger also is 4k 4x higher then HD...

 

[inCloud]

Isnt Forza Motorsport model made for past gen Forza Vista?

 

[Strax]

...only difference is in resolution, since xBOneX is 4x stronger also is 4k 4x higher then HD...

Not really, the One X has native 4k textures (unlike the PS4 Pro), the level of detail is way higher than a regular Xbox One.

...still it is same 4x the power, 4x the resolution as I said (usually when you say resolution, you mean it )

 

[emula]

GTS looks better in every single aspect

 

[mark5917]

The cockpit on the XBOX platform is not quite the real thing. And it should be GREEN!



And the Alpine logo isn't dark either. :-P

Not to mention, there should be a clock in the middle. (Where is my clock?) lol

On the other side, the wipers seems not be the original ones on the GT sport car. O.o

 

[HarVee]

Vacuum sounds. Still? In 2018?

 

[karelpipa]

GTSports Alpine has problems with overcharging

 

[Dopplegagger]

I always find GT's lighting to be fantastic, it makes Forza look horrible when compared on my phone's screen. Since I am away from the PC, I can't really drive into this comparison, but so far, I see where Turn 10's lack of attention to detail really bites them on this one. Like how the driver's hands aren't touching the steering wheel.

This is what happens when you have so many cars, quality is inconsistent.

I mean I'd rather have 700 cars than 200 or whatever but I'm just saying.

 

[iamjajo]

Kind of proves that the Alpine A110 is a great choice for driving games. I really like this car and even more so on dirt.

 

[axeMaltesse]

Cough * sim racing * cough * titles * cough... What ?

 

[Crazy Taylor]

That reflection in forza must be proper annoying to play with.
