For the love of god, at leats get your facts right before posting.
I've not played the GT4 Demo.. but I have had Prologue for several months and have enjoyed playing it with my DFP. GT4P is so much better than GT:C in physics.. and GT:C was much improved over GT3... it is said the GT4 demo is even further ahead of GT4P so I really can't see how some are saying it feels close to GT3. GT4P felt so much better than GT3 it was akin to the difference between GT2 and GT3... they felt so different from one another.
GTP is pretty different to the final thing (the nurb demo), but GTP feels alot like GTC if you ask me.
As for Forza, no wheel is going to let it down completely.
There are wheels on the xbox
. You mean a force feed back wheel
It's appealing feature is the engine swap function which would be quite nice. I am however expecting that feature to end up NFSU style and some crappy things will be involved and it'll probably allow you to put engines in cars that could not realistically hold them. The degree of detail required to swap an engine and to allow engine swaps to go smoothly on all cars in a game is going to be massive.. I just don't see them noting those kind of variables down and taking them into consideration. It will be a basic x HP engine in x drivetrain chassis with car weighing x + engine weight type calculation. It wont take into consideration anything but those basic things... and that I don't feel is enough to satisfy me when it comes to engine swaps. Whilst I know that if engine swapping came into a GT game it would be far more detailed with many more things required than just removing engine and putting in new engine.
Once again, get your facts right
. I can't even be bothered to explain why your wrong. You just are ok. Just because it's not GT DOESN'T mean the devs are n00bs who know nothing about cars. Lets remember that GT is the game with "turbo stage 4", so it's not exactly the UB3R mod sim you make it out to be. At least they bother with tyre heat etc
But anyway.. as for Forza's look... I still don't go for it... as I've said before GT4 has the right depth and looks 'right' for the most part. Almost all of the city tracks in Forza remind me of ancient games renditions of large cities.. it just doesn't feel right. There are times in GT4 you look at it and it looks so close to real you really appreciate what they have done... I just don't seem to feel that with Forza... it looks like it's a game... it also has a very 'Xbox' feel to it's graphics. The cars look great one second then from another angle they look completely out of place... some car models look well done and others look poor... there is no continued standard throughout all of the game... it's very variable.
Some games just don't look as good as others. Forza has tons of detail, and some snazzy special effects, but it's let down by awful colours, and jaggys. Oh and the rubbish frame rate. Gt looks good because it cheats, it fakes effects etc, and it's pretty low quality compared to alot of todays stuff, but as I've said before, PD have fantastic art direction.
The sounds I have heard sound very nice, but if we go by videos alone the sounds from GT4P I have heard in videos sound easily as good... Playing GT4P myself I have been happy with the sounds so far, although a lot of the ones in GT4P are from GT3 still.
Gt4 sounds like crap. Forza sounds pretty damn good. Simple as.
As for the interface.. I absolutely love the HUD on GT4 it has everything you want and without compromising your vision. It's not quite as impressive as the HUD in HalfLife2 for example as that's extreme minimalist perfection... but they are completely different genres... Compared to the Forza HUD I'd take GT everytime.
Umm they are pretty similar...speedo, gears, lap times etc...
Also don't forget not to compare Forza on a pad to GT4 on a pad... cause GT4 wasn't made for a pad. Try and compare Forza on whatever controller is available for it, to GT4 on the DFP... you'll soon feel why GT4 is superior.
Oh dear god...
Listen, I think GT4 will be better (heck I've played most of the demos now, and I can pretty much tell you it will be), but I don't feel the need to type made up crap. Take heed.
but hey, it's microsoft, what u expect, can't match up against the PD of Japan!
