Can we have at least a decent, reasonable and fair comparison here please?
Okay, here is my turn. This time a comparison between FM7 vs GTS vs real life :
First of all, it is a bit coincidence that GTS and real life footage have similiar time and weather conditions as you can see from the video above. That is relative actually, because Forza sometimes could get close to real weather as well. Nothing special in this case tbh.
As for graphics, both equally looks good. I like the sharp and contrasting shadow also the dash reflection in Forza, while GTS got a very nice shadow movement and natural lighting. If there is a bit slack probably Forza to my eyes a little bit dark and GTS have problem with jagged shadows. Each has it's own hit and miss here.
Sounds however, is different case. GTS got it close, just add a little bit bass and we are there. Forza is simply too much. Need to tone down the engine notes, so it doesn't sounded like V8 instead. Could have been said GTS is better than Forza in this regard, but imo both still needs fiddling to get it right and closer to real engine sounds like.
Btw, here is the original footage of Nurb record lap. Unfortunately the audio is too noisy so we can't hear the engine notes clearly :
Because of that, here is another video with better audio :
One more thing, I know this thread is a bit cancerous sometimes, but at least keep down your bias against another. Why can't we have a worthy and healthy discussions about each games we like? I guess that's why this thread exist isn't it? To share our thoughts and evaluate each games advantage and disadvantage with reasonable opinions, arguments and most of all, facts. That's my main gripes about this thread anyway. As long you keep it neutral, it is fine. 👍
