Again, it depends on perspective. To those people who choose to play GTA in that fashion, then yes, to them, it may be a driving game.
Which is defeating my point.

GTA is an open-world shooter game. The fact that people drive around like normal people does not make it any less of an open-world shooter game.

GT5 is a racing game. The fact that people drive around like normal people does not make it any less of a racing game.
I really fail to see the point you are trying to make.
Yeah, it really shows.
 
Why are both of you arguing?


And over a game of all things. :rolleyes:

I'm sure you are both adults so please act like one.....

Can't we all just get along...

Why are you picking on us? Presumably you've never been around other threads in the game sub-forums, because you would be shocked to see the amount of arguing "over a game of all things."

Wow. No need to go all over emotional on the subject dude!

Just stating my Opinion on the subject.

And I have seen/been on a very large amount of threads, and I have been a member for nearly three years.

On gtp?

Yes. You must be looking at my join date and I must tell you that I have forgot my other accounts password seeing as my PC has remembered the password for a very vast amount of time.

You can change the password.
 
Mitsubishi
You do not have to enter your old password?

I must have overlooked this as I was in panic......

:/

I believe your email address is all thats required.
 
Mitsubishi
Ok, thanks.

I will have a look at that tomorrow morning as I have a meeting tomorrow afternoon and need to get my sleep.

No problem sorry everyone for OT.
 
Which is defeating my point.

Correct, it is defeating your point. It's a BINGO!

GTA is an open-world shooter game. The fact that people drive around like normal people does not make it any less of an open-world shooter game.

GT5 is a racing game. The fact that people drive around like normal people does not make it any less of a racing game.

And under which governing body do these official definitions of game genres come from? Are you the ultimate authority when it comes to classifying which category a game fits in?

Again:
-to you (and many others), GT5 is a racing game.
-to myself (and many others), GT5 is much more than a racing game. To us, racing is simply one aspect.

And don't try to make it seem like I'm claiming that GT5 is a driving game, and not a racing game. That's not the point I'm making. The point I'm making is that GT5 is whatever the 🤬 each individual gamer wants it to be.

Until you can get a signed note from Kaz himself (I'd settle for a tweet) that states that GT5 is a racing game, and only a racing game, your entire argument is moot. I'm far too lazy to do the work for you, but if you search teh interwebz long enough, you'll find several quotes and interviews from Kaz where he clearly states that one of his biggest goals with Gran Tursmo is to create a game which encompasses all aspects of car culture.

You need to take the blinders off and wake up to the fact that not everyone in the world sees things exactly the same way you do.

Why are both of you arguing?

Judging by your post count, you're new here?

Welcome to GTP :cheers:

Edit: Never mind...you've been here for 3 years and didn't realize you could have dealt with that in PMs?

Kaz also wishes to achieve human drama.

He is a clever man

Then how do you explain this?
Look guys... it's simple. First and foremost, GT5 is a RACING game.

Let me get this straight....you're saying "GT5 is a Racing Simulator, not a Driving Simulator".....

Then how come, on the front cover of my copy of GT5, on the disc itself, and during the start up screens, DIRECTLY UNDER THE TITLE OF GRAN TURISMO 5, does it say, "The Real Driving Simulator???????
Because it seems very much to me that you are not accepting his opinion of what genre of game GT5 is.

You so silly.

Ok, one last time, then I'm finished.

I was simply pointing out the hilarity in his post, where he was so brash as to make a rather official sounding claim that GT5 is in fact a racing game and NOT a driving game, when there is clearly a contradictory catch phrase printed on the box. Clearly you missed the irony of the situation.

I did not mean for it to seem as though I was using the catch phrase "The Real Driving Simulator" as my own definition of what the game is. I actually think it's a pretty silly catch phrase for the series :lol:

Like I said, GT5 is whatever each person wants it to be. To you, it is simply a racing game. To me, it's much more than that. To me, the whole GT series has been about bringing car culture into the virtual world. Racing is just one part of that.

Perhaps you should try taking a break from living life in the fast lane, slow down, and come check out all the other fantastic aspects of car culture that the online play of GT5 has allowed to blossom.

Sorry to say, but you're grasping at straws here 'Kid.

You so silly.

You may dismiss it as being silly, but it illustrates the fact that your definitions of game genres are completely and utterly unofficial, and are nothing more than your own opinion.

And he can't encompass these aspects in a racing game?

Aaaaaand now you're just talking in circles. If Kaz encompasses all aspects of car culture in a racing game, is it still a racing game??? :boggled:

Which is why you come across as a hypocrite for defending that very statement. Do you not realize that?

Good to hear.

Which is a terrible argument, because I can say that COD as a whole is a vehicle simulator because it contains AC-130s and Chopper Gunners.
Aaaaaand now you're just talking in circles. If Kaz encompasses all aspects of car culture in a racing game, is it still a racing game??? :boggled:
"All" is pretty ambitious. Given what we have, I would say that he attempts to encompass all aspects of car cultures in the game (which would never happen).
 
Pictures or it didn't happen

Ok haha

All this because you couldn't have your way though? Priceless. What a waste.

Ultimate rage quit I guess
 
Hei
That looks like a normal dvd/ cd, let me see the other side.

Yes this. And write on a piece of paper GTP and your username. Just to close the book on it.

Johnnypenso
Give the guy a break...lol..

Hey the AUP bro. Hahahaha

I come across as a hypocrite for defending the statement because I think "The Real Driving Simulator" is a silly catch phrase???

Please, oh please, show me where I explained to you why I think "The Real Driving Simulator" is a silly catch phrase. If you think it's because I feel it's a contradiction with what the game actually is, then you are wrong. You presume waaaay to much. My gripe with the catch phrase has more to do with use of, and slight contradiction between, the words "Real" and "Simulator". I'm quite ok with the word "Driving" being in there.

Like I said, you are really grasping at straws here.

Ok, now I really am done for real :dopey:
 
It's amazing how a quotation of 4 words can make such a fuss on this forum. What's next? Can't play GT5 because it isn't The Real Drifting Simulator :lol:
 
GTP_CargoRat
Damn you guys, you'll call out anybody on anything, lol.

But in all seriousness if he really did do that all I have to say is what a waste. I mean i guess that is his choice to deal with PD'S decision like that
