[quote name='MIX_MASTER_ICE']Just had to interject that if you have both a PS3 and 360, Forza 4 absolutely destroys GT5. lol[/QUOTE]

I agree 100% with you!
 
[quote name='Thrinn']At the very least list a few reasons to convince us why it's so much better. Otherwise your statement carries little to no weight.[/QUOTE]

Just play them both for a little while and get back with me with your analysis, chief.

Dude, just shut up. I didn't say 3 out of 4 dentists prefer Forza 4 over GT5. I stated Forza 4 destroys GT5. I stated...again, I stated. Agree or not, I don't really care.

I think he's wondering if you could say why it destroys GT5. Then maybe readers of the thread would benefit from a reasoned opinion rather than an unreasoned one. :ziplip:
 
I think gt5 is more fun for a car realist while forza is more fun for a gamer. Both are good though its just preference.
 
duke nukem and borderlands also have reversible cover art. i love reversible cover art ;)
seems classy without all those labels/etc

some have pix like uncharted3 but it doesnt do well as cover art, it's just inside case art.

n yay got this free woot

Free stuff forum. Sony reward thread. Free game(s) every month for a few minutes of work each week while watching TV. Last month's was this game and it's likely that we'll get it a couple of days before release. It's too late to get GT 5 XL but if sign ups are open now you might get in for next month. This month's reward is the Jak and Daxter collection.

Interesting, I'll check that out thanks!
 
The triple dip. GT5 doing its best Capcom impression.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - April 2008 - $40 (glorified demo)
Gran Turismo 5 - November 2010 - $60 (full game)
Gran Turismo 5 XL - January 2011 - $40 (full game + DLC)

I'll hold out for a fourth edition. Gran Turismo 5 XXL Turbo. Potentially $20 when looking at the history. Potentially due out Spring 2012.


(relax, I'm a fucking PS3 fanboy/nerd/addict.)
 
Forza is a great racer if you're looking for more arcadey physics and a light challenge. Its a game built for play on a controller(lol) and has assists you can't even disable.

Fun game and does the addicting car pokemon aspect well but its hardly comparable to a sim.
