Lets Talk Gaming Consoles

LOL haters gonna hate.. denial slowly turns to anger..

Because a car racing game where the developer release a way to start races when you're not there must be jam packed with racing excitement.

never had this issue...why sign up for a race, if your not gonna be there?? and i love the way you can get a group of friends together and everyone can just screw around on the track while waiting for the others to show up (people are always late)

i think its called anticipation, hence why the thread was started. im pretty sure the initial release was always gonna be around this time anyways (thats what i heard from day one of the PS being released) and it was always said it wasnt going to be released till crazy eccentric Japanese developer guy was happy with it. people just got impatient and started complaining..

and there were what 3 forza's in that time?? quantity over quality, the xbox way

[bozodos]

ahahaha what do you mean?

given that GT5 was GT4 with a new set of shoes on (seriously most of the cars looked like straight ports), I fail to see WHERE these extra years of development went. I was expecting something mindblowing, I got GT4 with cars that refuse to turn, with graphics on par with Forza 2.

Delusional.

Forza 2005, Forza 2 2007, Forza 3 2009. Two years is quantity over quality? I think that's just being able to finish a project.

Some of the BS I have seen people spout about Forza 3 it's just mind dumbing, either they have such a huge hardon for GT5 it gets in the way of them playing Forza 3 or they've just never played it.

In an interview with some game reviewer company. One GT5 developer said that GT5 was pushed back due to other projects (eg. GT 5 Prologue & PSP GT5).. So i don't think it was all about making this awesome game.. That was prob alot of rumour due to how long it was taking and alot of PS3 users bought the console mainly for GT5

And what do you mean the xbox way? The same developer of games make the PS3 ones also.. Your argument for why xbox is shit is invalid. They are both good at being consoles.. But quality over quantity? Is that why alot of games have better quality on xbox? eg. COD Black Ops

Most people (especially xbox or pc fans or just gt haters) get completely messed up when calculating how long it took to make gt5. They assume that gt5 went into production the moment gt4 was finished. They also forget that there were 3 mini gt5 games released before gt5 plus gt for psp. They also ignore the fact that the physics engine from gt5 prologue was scrapped and wasn't used in gt5. And finally, gt5 only had 2 official release date delays. The first from march to November then the few week delay then. Any other 'delay' was purely off rumoured release dates. If i start a rumour saying that forza 4 is coming out tomorrow then if or when it comes out i can rant on about how delayed it has been like all the forza fans do about gt5.

Does anyone remember the old nissan patrol ads with the old guy saying "i've always been a cruiser man". Well that is what the ps3 vs xbox or gt5 vs forza debate will always be like (with either side being the grumpy old cruiser owner who is refusing to acknowledge any good points about the other console/game).

[boiracer]

lol

[EeLeYe]

Despite polyphony digital bringing out other gt games between gt4 and gt5, it still took too long.

Look at mgs for instance. They brought out 3 games and mgs4 still came out on schedule mid 2008. Same goes for gow3; who started from scratch and after a team structure change also. Both games are awesome and it is VERY obvious that a lot of work went into them. Gt5 otoh isn't as obvious as one would think.

Btw, I'm not bagging gt5, I like the game... I was just expecting a LOT more than a polished gt4 with some weather effects.

I don't think either console is shit.. They are both good for playing games. Saying PS3 or Xobx is shit by comparing Farza and GT5 is stupid. That's like watching a DVD movie and not enjoying it. Then turn around saying the DVD player is shit because of that..

Haters gonna hate

[boiracer]
