GT5 Prologue trailer right here !!

Replay Post Processing Filters Galore.

But yes it looks stunning.

But I didn't buy forza for graphics i bought it for gameplay, same reason i bought GT3 A spec. I wan't the gameplay to be hot.

Nearly everybody in the thread has gone on about the graphics, no mention of what the physics will be like.

Yeah, I haven't seen a huge improvement in the driving model from GT1 all the way through to GT4. I know the PS3 has CPU power to burn but it doesn't necessarily mean the physics have been improved substantially. All that eye candy means little if we don't get more realistic handling.

I also think they need to revamp the series somehow since I personally didn't find enough new in GT4, and didn't play it much at all. Compare that to the original GT which I finished every race in. Better physics plus a good damage model would certainly give the game a fresh feel, along with online play and better graphics of course.
 
Looks stunning, but GT replays always have. I don't care how good it looks if the physics and AI are anything like the rest of the series, because it won't be a patch on FM2.

Well atm only polyphony digital know. You can't expect people to comment on physics from watching a trailer.

Yeah they REALLY need to sort the AI. GT has the WORST driver ai in the world ever.

I hope they really do some good sound work too, i've always thought the sounds in gt were a little too synthetic.

Hope it rocks, but no damage, and "same again" physics will no do it any favours.

It'll still sell 10m units though

This is blatantly a lie, GT4 used a brand new physics engine :)

Rewritten doesn't necessarily mean massively better. The difference between the physics in Forza 2 and GT4 is massive. Forza 2 feels like a simulation, GT4 feels like just a game. Also the other cars in GT4 are effectively on rails, whereas in Forza 2 if you nudge a car in the rear you can set him into a massive slide or spin which he has to recover from since your car and the AI are all using the same 300 Hz physics. Hit another car in GT4 and it feels like it's glued down. Plus the AI in Forza 2, while not perfect, is damn fun to race against, the way they'll try to take a new line to get round you if you're on the racing line. It's still not as good as racing against other people of course but it's getting closer. The AI actually uses a neural net so the AI are constantly learning and improving.
 
don't forget GT4 is running on a 333Mhz CPU and Forza 2 is on a 3GHz tri core, so i would be shocked if it wasn't massively different :p

Comparing GT4 with FM2 is rather funny, on all sides tbh.

As for the AI in forza 2, i find it just as bad as the GT AI. jsut barging its way past you 'That's my racing line'

I wish someone would develop a great racing AI. they could license it out and make a fortune.

Like I said they're not perfect, they will sometimes just hit you for no reason. Most of the time they're pretty good to race against though. The CPU in the PS2 isn't strictly relevant since Richard Burns Rally had awesome physics on the PS2.

The good thing from my perspective is that GT5 is still a good way off so it doesn't have to compete with Forza 2 or PGR4 for my attentions since I'll probably be long finished with them by when GT5 hits the shelves. Fanboyism aside most of us will probably end up playing all three. Forza 2 is great now, PGR4 will be great come christmas, and GT5 will probably be great come next year, so it's all good. That's the way to look at it. Each has it's own strengths and weaknesses but I'm sure I'll enjoy them all.

weird because they spent months recording each and every car according to the dvd that came with gt 4 prologue

even shows them doing it iirc


as for AI well its pretty bad in most racing games to be fair :( either never leave the racing line or do that silly catch up thing
 
The sounds were heavily compressed and I see where Rava is coming from, the sound was a bit too 'distant' and didn't actually feel it was coming from the right place, it was therefore out of context.

A lot of that was due to DVD space I'd guess. If ever they had a reason to really push Blu-Ray, that would be a good reason.
