    I doubt seriusly doubt that, GT4 as GT, GT2 and GT3 behind it, the phisics of GT4 will be even more realistic, when ForzaMotorsport 4 comes out, then, and maybe then i'll believe you, but then we'll perhaps have GT8? lol

    lol, i think 2 many ppl have this notion that, woaw GT4 = immediately the only good racing simulater therefore f**k, everything else must suck then. Not true, Forza will rok coz theyve had the guts to take on every sort of criticism from PS2 fanboys who look for every single minor mistake they see in the graphics and any released info such as the number of cars. I heard theres no damage in the new GT, and that immediately makes it unworthy of the slogan "the real racing simulator". PGR2 beats the crap out of GT3 and will , along with RSC2, probably have beta graphics than the new GT4 coz we all know that the xbox has more raw power than the ps2. You may nitpick over little details, but in the end, the new GT will, in my opinion be 2 realistic. 600 cars is waayyy too much and the abscence of real damage will dent the impact of the game.

    My thoughts are still towards Forza as the betta game, a vast majority of people in the gaming and automotive community may find it hard to compare the two, but in the end they must realise that GT is not the only game for racing simulation for consoles anymore.

    Oh btw, i forgot to mention Sega GT, not that good, so not worth mentioning.

    I don´t have the notion that GT3 is the best simulation, I know, and i've played all of hem. IMHO the hole GT series have been the best car simulation games ever, the other games you can compare it to are Sports Car GT, Toca Race Driver 2 and Gotham Racing like you said, but stil for me GT3 as been a more envolving game.

    That said, it's a good thing game makers are tearning their heads to car simulation games, i just wish they'd make then for PC to... having to borow PS2 and the X-Box all the time makes me feel bad! hehe

    When players comare the GT series and talk about it being the best simulation how wide have you played ?

    I find the rear-end movement of GT series to be so false it borders on arcade.

    Also what do you use ?
    I've had the conversation with mates son who wanted to show me how "realistic" LiveFOrSpeed was and THEN began to play it with a joypad !! WTF

    SO my starting point for realism is decent wheels and pedal - including analog clutch to really get the tail steering when needed

    Do you put on the rally gear when you play, ultimate realism. Sat/rode in my father's friends rally car after the rally, when the car was pushed pretty hard it's quite a thrill.

    I NEARLY built a seat and monitor support looking like an F1 cockpit when the kids were wee. But now I think it would be kinda sad. BUT in the rally sims I just CNANOT get used to a button on the wheel for the handbrake and the external seperate handbrake I've go just isn't big enough to sit on it's own. SO maybe If I ever get time from wokring on real ones I'll build a sim one

    I cant stand the thought of purposly damaging an Enzo...yet, it would be interesting to see what could happen.


    Mixed feelings when damaging such nice cars, i guess thats why its a game.
