GT5 is going to be THE racing game with many different aspects such as WRC, regular road racing, drifting, F1 (limited involvment), and NASCAR.

When it comes out? who knows? Until then I'll keep myself busy with Forza 3.

Which by the way, if any of you salty dogs have an xbox (with live), I drift almost every night... ADUB01 is my tag...

Yeah, I think G37 zele body kits looks great in the game and also in real life. I think the body kits designed by Polyphony Digital too..

You can get a used Audi R8... I would love to own the R8 someday... but I am saving my money for Ferrari 458.

Hell yeah! Been a fan of GT since the first one (miss doing the LM body mods from the first 2). I even had GT4 on pre-order for almost half a year before it came out. Love drifting the G35 and G37 in GTP right now!

Just a shame that I haven't been able to play much since moving into my house.

I'm a gamer but I only play on PC. I have a PS3 but it doesn't even come close to the graphics of a PC.

Right now playing Wolfenstein and Prototype

Sucks Gran Torismo doesn't exist on the PC, but Need for Speed is coming soon!

The textures used in console games will never be able to be up to par as a dedicated PC game. Plus on PC you can force high level Antialiasing and anisotropic filtering to what you want.

An easy way to see the difference between the two is to play a ported console game on the PC. Then play a dedicated PC game (on a good system of course). The texture detail/size don't even come close!

I can tell very easily when I play a ported game on PC just by the graphics

Wrong... I run my PS3 on a HP LCD PC Monitor @ 1920x1080 (HDMI)

You need a top of the line PC to run a game smoothly at those resolutions.

Look at the new Batman game.. simply amazing. (Photo is actual ingame footage)

PC will always look better.. since it got more memory than console and more powerful graphic cards. currently some PS3 games looks comparable to PC, but by next years PC games will surpass console.

I'm PS3 all the way and I have always been console.... I have a Top of the line 50'' 1080p HDMI and I hate to admit it but my buddies that are PC have better graphics.

PC is the proving grounds for technology that trickes down to console. PC will always be ahead of console by 2 years or so.

But console costs 300-600 bucks and everyone is pretty much even besides the connection and monitor.

PC that runs games can run from $1500-$6000 for high end unit.

I prefer the level playing field as I don't feel like dropping 6K on a gamer computer with all the bells and whistles....

PS3 is amazing and games are now being made to take advantage of the systems capabilities but it is still behind a high end tricked out PC.

Consoles usually have better graphics than PCs at launch time but lag behind as time goes on.

Back when PS2 first came out you would need a $3000 computer to get the same graphics... within 2 years the PS2 was a dinosaur.

If youlike PS3 driving games, try Grid. It has damage and shows the crashes better, I think it may be alittle too critical with the steering inputs but it is hard to get "real type" steering action in a game that has no driver input/car feedback.....as far as just the driving aspect of the game, I think it rivals Grand Torismo.

need for speed shift demo looks amazing on my PC with an 8800GT 512mb... but ima probably going to buy it on the PS3 just because my ps3 is hooked up to my Samsung LED TV (could run the computer on the samsung, too lazy to set that up)... Consoles will never look better than PC, but they are much more up to par now a days... i brought my ps3 mainly to be a media center... i really only buy the console exclusive games for the ps3...

just remember that a good PC video card cost more than the PS3/xbox360 does... that should put it into prospective...

Is anyone else playing the Forza 3 demo? The demo is pretty freakin' sweet. I preordered the full game and picked up the racing wheel for the XBox360. The wheel has a steeper learning curve than the controller, but it's easier to hold a proper line when cornering and it provides better feedback. Plus I find the accelerator and brake operation is much more natural using pedals instead of the triggers.

My gamertag is... WAldenIV.

EDIT--> I'm also loving Batman: Arkham Asylum right now.

XBOX 360 is BETTER, and Forza 3 makes GT5 look like a Honda compared to a nissan

Due to extremely stupid reasons, I had to get a whole new account with XBL... so my gamertag is Motown01. I drift on Forza 2 almost daily and I intend to keep the habit when Forza 3 comes out... Add me...

Let me guess.. you couldn't afford to get PS3.. btw, GT5 got more than 400 cars, running 60fps 1080, no RROD, and you don't have to switch disk...

Forza 3 has over 400 cars, runs at 60fps, has a better physics engine that works at 360Hz, better performance damage, more tracks than GT5, photo realistic tracks and backgrounds, and doesn't require you swap discs. You either install the second disc or you don't. There is no swapping.

I'm sure both games will be excellent, but a couple of early comparisons that I read indicated Forza 3 had the edge.
