And if its going to be arcadish, its going to do it with style lol. The teams idea is a new thing, good car sounds, a nice collection of new cars and the most important thing, not to be like NFS MW where you keep on roaming and searching for races, it may have this but as a game mode I hope

People shouldn't be so quick to make assumptions, it actually didn't look too Arcady to me! That's just my two cents though
My thinking is just the simple fact of ten years of thought and planning and development, why would you want to make an arcade racer, especially with THAT amount of detail!

Yeah but you would think, to put that much time and effort into recreating the cars to perfection, why would you want to take away from that by not giving someone the chance to see their full potential?
Arcade driving physics really takes away from the feel of driving a car like that. Look at some of the need for speed games

I did mean a few of the later titles, I know where your coming from though. But I just think that they would want to be really true to life, and expand the detail from just the looks, into the feel of the cars. Arcade physics, they can feel different, but in the same way, they can feel quite the same.
Just personal preference but I would like to see them really nail it and make them feel real. Even if not pure simulation, just real!

Looking good.
Is there any chance Evo and PD share their licences with each other? Like, having an Agera R in GT5 just to tease us about DriveClub?Just wishing.
BTW, I hope it isn't online only.
Seeing as Sony is their shared publisher, I imagine so. Sony is the licensee in these matters, they have to be so that if PD were to be disbanded or Sony decided they weren't pulling their weight, Sony could give the Gran Turismo IP to someone else to develop with the licenses intact. So it's not too far fetched to assume that cars in one Sony-owned IP would be licensed for another, though of course it's up to the developer to use the license. It's also possible for the license to only extend to one game, I'm not a lawyer so this post is all speculation. And lies.

If its anything like MCLA, then yes please. But FH was terrible and this probably will be too.

Except in GT5 the parts that are modeled and should move do, in these videos they don't like the brake rotors and the visible suspension.
Can our resident graphics experts tell if this is pre-rendered or not? The reflection of the car door on the body of the Venom GT makes me think it isn't.
They need the catch phrase "The real car door opening and closing simulator.".
Still, if I have a PS4 and this is the only racing game, it's an obvious purchase, if just to look at the Venom GT and other cars that are missing from GT.

I could be wrong, but I can't think of any way to tell if it's prerendered. The normal way would be spotting things that you know the hardware is incapable of rendering in real time, but because we have no real idea of what the hardware is capable of that's pretty much out.
Reflections can be prerendered just as easily as anything else.

Million dollars question: Customization and livery editor included?
@dbarrade: in modern racing games reflections are NOT prerendered. pCars, rFactor 2, Assetto Corsa. All real time reflections. What differs are the shaders. Shaders in a few words are "how the car reflect". Having better shaders doesn't mean having better 3d models.

I never understood the arcade style racer hate either.
Hell, when I was growing up one of the games I played at the arcade more then anything else was OutRun.
I also still to this day remember the first time as a kid I sat in the machine and played San Francisco Rush. Mind = Blown.
Arcade racers will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up with them.
I also agree with the sentiments people have about Sony having more than one racing franchise and to take the pressure off PD a little bit as well as offer something new/different from GT.

Just read every comment in this thread up till this point, people dont hang about to make judgements on things these days do they? 
I cant wait for PS4 and DriveClub, can only get better from here, in my opinion 👍
And perhaps I should be saying this in the PS4 thread, but as Im here now, does anyone know the *possible* release date for the PS4, and assumingly, this game?

They said "Holiday 2013", so they clearly want to take advantage of Christmas sales. That means they'll be getting it out by November at the latest, December will be too late and they need enough time for kids to nag so incessantly for so long that the parents will pray for death if they don't get them a PS4 for Christmas. As for Europe, though, I guess it will be early 2014.

I think they're a tad upset by not seeing GT6 and there appears to be a strong pout element going on 
I also don't get the comparison comments stating that pCars looks better - like it's fair to compare a PC title to a new console one...even if it is next-gen.

Drive Club graphics look fine to me. Think its a bit unfair to compare it to pcCars at the moment when we havent seen many DriveClub images in comparison. Cant wait to see how the tracks and weather looks like, as well as how "different times of year" affect all of that.
Besides, this is how PS3 racers looked at launch
