Can anyone say GT4 Ripoff??

Microsoft may as well just face it that Sony and the GT series OWN console racing games.

actually that was segaGT2002, forza has many elements that make it better than GT4, it has damage that effects the cars performance looks and your back pocket, has AI that learns from how you drive, and also has a superior physics engine.

LOL forza looks fucking shit.. i like it how GT4 has not only taken the really good cars, but it has also added the not so good cars, and cars people like. Forza just looks like your average Ricer boy game... i don't see any old classic cars in it.. just lots of Le Mans style cars aswell as really new cars. can u get an MA61 in it ? plus a few of those movie clips with those cars a bit corny, why does a cars brakes glow RED hot slowing down into a wide open corner, are they made of aluminum foil... or is that Xbox trying to be realistic

for starters the game has been revised a fair bit since the demo was released second the Ps2 is an inferior system, slower processor, worse graphics, shit house controller and woe ful load times, get a life. The xbox may not have all the games but it far more pleasing to play for hours on end and just generally to look at the game. Plus its not all about raping the customer for aftermarket addons, ie memory cards bolt in modem bolt in hard drive etc etc.
The Xbox controller is a marvel, perfect to play for hours on end sure its heavy but its better than being able to press every button at once. It almost makes a steering wheel redundant because of the amount you can adjust throttle and brakes.
Oh and for the real gamer nothing beats the ability to get dodgy with the Xbox just wack in a 120gig hard drive and load on all the games possible.
One of the best features of the xbox is being able to play your own music as the back ground for games, honest it improves it a lot, nothing worse than the shit put in most games but music is good to accompany a game.

no old classics what all the old ferrari's and porsches etc, the 2000gt pretty much the only worthy old toyota. Like the Ma61 sucks balls stock.
Yay GT4 has 700 cars well woopdy fucking do beacuse around 35 are skylines. Half the cars are the fucking same so you come back down to around 300 cars anyway if not less,

In your opinion

In MHz but not in benchmarking, once again MS has flopped out some big numbers with no meaning.

Agreed but it isn't all about the graphics, there is gameplay etc to consider.

yeah but its better to have both the sound effects love the car noises and music together. I was telling Eldaro to get a life and stop bitching about a game that when he played was not even complete.
I am not saying that graphics is all to a game but it helps complete it, PGR2 is a pretty decent game decent challenging AI on hard and the graphics are superb, good graphics make it easier to play a racing game as you have better vision of coners and lines etc, as well as it just being aesthically pleasing and completing the game.

regarding the glowing brakes, i doubt they'd glow all the frickin way through the race Rolling Eyes maybe once you're getting through an endurance race, but not right from the start!

Now, imagine if it had better graphics.... keep in mind, i intentionally didnt focus it because this was the effect i was after.

but it had shitty gameplay....

its nice to have features like this eh?

Id also like to mention, i own over 170 cars, and, i DO use all of them. Its awesome being able to take pics in action and posed shots...

i have sprinters, celicas, rx7's, WRX's, EVO's, RUF's, TVR's, Mustangs, the GT40, 350z's, shit, i have heaps of them!

how the hell do you know what the gameplay is like, it hasnt even been released No No No .

and that link you posted?
Point 1. he's paying out the dude that created it WTF?
Point 2. obviously its an old page cos xbox has got tonnes of games now. and how can you take anything this wanker says seriously? he said halo doesnt cut it, even though it's a well known fact it's one of the best games ever made.
Point 3. he's paying out the old controller and bragging about how big his nuts are. the new one kicks arse. what a tosser.
Point 4. purely his opinion, no facts, and i can see this is where you drew one of your arguments from.
Point 5 he says its crap cos it has NOT got shitty nintendo games and its not popular to the japanese. Freak
Point 6. just like point 4 but he also points out how great the components are. is this a shortfall? um. no.
Point 7. another old argument, it's not expensive anymore.

Obviously this guy wrote that because he thought someone cared about his ill informed opinion. wanker.

what stretch its eazy your just holding it wrong. i don't have a controller s cos when i tried to use on at the shops i didn't like it so i bought another duke as they are referred to. They rock honestly, what pisses me off is that all the new games when they show the controls they picture the controler s and the buttons are all wrong like, so i just hit them all and see what happens

OK so hands up who has actually played Forza, I have. How many of you guys who know exactly what the game is going to be like have played it.

Oh I also have a PS2 and quite enjoy GT4. As to the controller debate I have a controller S, an old Xbox controller and a Logitech Driving Pro. The dual shocks were fed to my dog, who makes analoge buttons with 2mm of travel???

lol I still love the fact that all the Ps2 fan boys out there are still defending that GT4 has got better game play.

If forza has more realistic characteristics then GT4 and they are both simulators wouldnt forza have better game play as it is more realistic.

And as well Forza has Xbox Live which just boosts the game play way over the top of GT4.

ohh yea as for the Xbox controller I prefer the old duke to my new controller.

and Not sure if this is true or not but the release date that I have for forza is the 29th of april, games rush have got it as this.

The so-called delightful experience of playing ps2's mythological array of games is hamperred by its woeful interface with the outside world. And, thus, games are more fun on xbox.

Shocked You can not be serious comparing, rallisport to gran turismo, yes graphics are good but Donkey Kong is more enjoyable to play. Rallisport is officially the worst car game ever created, Sega rally had more realistic handling than Rallisport Razz .

What the fuck is all this shit with controllers? I've played for a long period of time with both, and they are equal in everything, when playing with xbox, i use an xbox controller, when playing the ps2, shock horror, i use the ps2 controller, none of them have any advantages over the other? But as for the graphics, i think ps2 looks more real, the xbox makes it seem plastic and cartoon like.

simple, xbox's is more ergonomic and it has triggers with which you can vary how hard you accelerate and brake, as opposed to the limits of ps2's button. this is of course if you arent using a wheel Rolling Eyes

lets also agree that GT4 has sold more copies Razz

i prefer GT4, its got an "epicness" to it, it also has a composure only seen before in James Bond, the worlds biggest champion..

Ill judge when forza comes out, so far my experince has been that its dog shit..

im also wondering, if i dont know what im on about because i havent played the full version, what are you on about? because you havent either?

Of course GT4 has sold more copies you knob Forza isn't realised yet, and probably won't outsell GT4 because of the massive hype around it and the fact that there are more PS2's floating around the world than Xbox's cos it was realised two years before.

Of course GT4 has sold more copies you knob Forza isn't realised yet, and probably won't outsell GT4 because of the massive hype around it and the fact that there are more PS2's floating around the world than Xbox's cos it was realised two years before.

someone needs to realise what sarcasm is...

everyone gets so heated about this debate...

look, as far as i care, gt4's graphics are more than adequate, gameplay is awesome, theres alot of choices of cars, load imes are small enough to bear, and the game has more features and options than ill ever use...

As for using my own soundtrack, well, that would be a nice feature, except for the fact that i race with my music off, and sound effects at full bore.

And, to clarify, it is of MY opinion that Forza was crap to play, i didnt like it, doesnt mean you have to change my mind about what i think...

Im sure you'll all find it a great game to play with mates or whatever... but seriously, GT4 is like nothing ive ever experienced, this is the only game ive played for more than a week.... within the last 18 months or so...

And as for insulting me, i dont think this was duite appropriate given what was said...

This is pretty high quality stuff for a car simulator, real life circuits, you can iven tune with your motec.

and if you are running a motec on your car you can upload it into the game Shocked

GTR is so realistic it's not funny... I've only had the frustration of playing the GT4 demo but GTR was MILES ahead in realism.


Having said that, the GT4 demo where you drive the average S2000 (its auto too) was actually fun... I enjoyed it.

GTR is HOT ! ! when's the international release date?

PS2 has more good games, although Xbox gets most of the same titles now. Xbox is technically more powerful, can pump out better gfx etc, and has INFINITELY better controllers. Teh dual shock is GHEY, widt teh aidz and massiff, torn asshole etc.


I own both consoles, and can also assure everyone that the original, MAN-SIZED xbox controller is way better than the little girly-boy s-controller. Cool


Oh - I played a demo of Forza - thought it was pooh in the handling department.



peace out niggaz Very Happy

not sure about the international release date, just get the german version like I did.


I've got all the neccessary english conversion patches and stuff... so it's as good as the english version, except the game has german pit crews >_>

Mate, GTR will work ANY computer hard. My Athlon 2600+ with 64mb GeForce4 and 512mb RAM doesn't keep up with what it wants. Not even close ! Sad

Need some sort of fancy new 128mb or 256mb Graphics card.

I have both, ps2 controller = ghey wif aides and hepatitis. old xbox controller = rule!, new one aint bad at all Smile

i prefer the ps2, simply because of games... when xbox gets some decent games, then ill get more into it... as for now, im getting a 200 GB hard drive slapped in there, along with some other mod chip....

xbox is VERY versatile, the games suck teh p00 p00

simple, xbox's is more ergonomic and it has triggers with which you can vary how hard you accelerate and brake, as opposed to the limits of ps2's button. this is of course if you arent using a wheel Rolling Eyes

But i can easily vary those with the buttons on the ps2 controller? Must be just me.

it will run GTR fine.

I've got a skt754 3200+ with only 512mb of ram and a 9600XT, runs the game flawlessly on the maximum graphics settings.


I wouldn't worry too much... yours should be able to handle it great! Very Happy
