That was soooooooo terrible, I stopped watching after two and a half minutes. Seriously....Gamespot has no business whatsoever playing or reviewing a racing sim. Their lack of racing and car knowledge within that two minutes was so stupifying. It's amazing they have driver's licenses. And I can tell these are the same idiots that said GT5P's Dashboard was "in the way." (Didn't they also mention that GT5P or something was "too realistic"?)

I will no longer read or trust a review of a racing title (or any title for that matter) from Gamespot. (Let's face it, if they're knowledge of car culture sucks this bad...I mean, they're obviously a bunch of nerds who spend most of their time playing D&D and WoW)
 
From the gameplay videos I've seen F4 looks just like F3. It has the same washed out look with cartoony cars, the lighting is all wrong and so are the textures.

The screenshots look great but gameplay graphics have hardly changed. GT5 standards look better using chase cam than this...

Have you played the demo? No?

Go back to the GT forums. Comments from ignorant fanboys like you are unwanted here.

I'm not being funny or making a joke but you should probably see an optometrist.

You can't possibly be that bad at trolling.

Well, there's your first problem. Perhaps on a small youtube video or a tube-TV, they might look similar. I'll give you that.


Anyway, speaking of differences between 3 and 4... Is it just me, or is the tracks, and possibly the overall hue of the environments a bit more... Dry? And I mean that with respect. 3 was a bit in-your-face with color, but this one seems a bit... Life-like? Yes?

Or could that be the youtube videos? They have a nasty habit of doing that sort of thing.

Edit - The demo isn't a fair example for this observation. I'd expect the Bernese Alps to be that vibrant.

I know exactly what you mean and I'm looking forward to it as well. That's one thing the irked me about GT5. Alot of the time it looked as if a box of crayons exploded on the screen. Colors were WAY too bright in some instances.
 
Blacks were also atrocious. :yuck:

Well, at least on my HDTV. On my monitor everything is just so...clean.
 
If you want to see the graphical difference between 3 and 4, play the demo then go back to 3.
I did yesterday, 3 just looks dull and boring in comparison
 
The thing is in some instance the difference 3 and 4 can be quite small, same goes to physics, FM3 can look and drive very good in some particular moments. However so far FM4 has been consistently brilliant.
 
"Forza.....apparently they're doing a lot more with tires this year. Great, did that have some huge impact on my experience playing the game? Not really."

....and then minutes later he talks about how the cars are more responsive and authentic.

I wish I could be paid to not know what the hell I'm talking about.

64 box with the built in sharpener?

Speaking of black, I always felt that it somewhat "swallowed" a car's lines if it was painted black in the game. You could miss some of the details on the car, I thought. Hard to explain, but it somehow always caused me to not want my cars to be black. In the FM4 demo, that looks just a lot better...

I just watched the CUDA video and that audio is incredible!!! WOW! Cant wait to drive that beast. Its one of the cars I asked T10 for. I just never bought the FUC so I wasnt able to ever drive the Cuda. But now I can!!

This video sounds good too and now I realize the audio does indeed remind me of PGR4. Even the car pass noise reminds me of PGR4. In a good way.

My Cuda will be bright green or bright purple for sure. :) I edited above stating how much the audio reminds me of PGR4 in a good way.

Love the 'Cuda video...the Hemi V8 drowning out the other cars :drool: However....they have an online video that...I don't know, it reminds me of a Rush game. It looked like an Arcade racer...WTF? Why would you make your online stuff suck that bad. Come one Turn10, you can do better than that.

You lost me with the online video? I havent seen it yet but what was wrong with it? Keep in mind the game is not technically out yet so if there are online issues, it makes sense.

Wow, that brings back memories. I had two Cuda's back in the day but not a Hemi though. One was white (383ci) the other purple (340ci), right up there with my favorites that I have owned. They were a lot of fun!

What's up with the light/medium blue color though - can't say I ever saw one that color.
 
I don't like the way the game looks at 60FPS. At 30fps, your mind can take some liberties and extend disbelief....at 60fps, the motion is too real and your mind just goes, 'oh ok, some rendered 3d models roaming about on a screen in my living room.'

There is a reason movies run at 24fps.
 
Speaking of black,

I found it both hilarious and completely offensive(not really) that you started your reply to T12 with "speaking of black".
That's all. Can't wait for my copy to show up.
