Final Analysis
Doug's Take: While GT4 is the original driving sim in so many respects, Forza certainly competes in areas where Polyphony's has not changed and continues to remain weak. Forza brandishes a stellar Career Mode that models itself on the GT series, but branches in several areas, particularly by adding outer body customization, Drivatar training, car deformation that affects performance, a compelling point/level system, and an awesome multiplayer Xbox Live experience.
GT4, on the other hand, is an unbeatably gorgeous game that once again proves Polyphony's technical prowess as a leader for the system. GT4's massive list of cars and tracks handily beats Forza's, and Polyphony's game remains one that people know, love, and have built a fantastic attachment to over the years. I'd say that the sales of GT4 will be very impressive indeed, while the first iteration of Forza (there has to be more eventually) will do well. But, I'll go ahead and say this, there will be major detractors because of Forza's innovation. I'd say that for graphic lovers, PS2 traditionalists, and gamers who want the most cars and tracks any racing game can offer, GT4 is your game. And for people who want something different, something compelling, and who want get their game online, Forza will absolutely knock your socks off.

Both games are very good.

I believe GT5 and Forza 2 should be similar. Tight Battle!

Hmmm... Both of them look good but I wanna to test drive both of them to see which I think is the best choice.

I am more into Sim racing hardcore.

By the way I am confused you said GT5? I thought I saw GTR trailer in 360? there are two titles GT5 and GTR?
 
I just checked Forza 2 trailer and read about that game. I realized Forza 2 game's company Microsoft game studios made Rallisport challenege which I used to love playing that game. I think I trust Microsoft game studios on Forza 2. It should be a better racing game.

I dunno about GT5/GTR but trying to search for them from website for 360.
 
Ok I found GTR for xbox 360... there also GT5... so there are two titles. GTR seem like is the best choice check this trailer out.

THQ made this game... THQ also made MotoGP 06. MotoGP 06 seem good huh?

GTR features all the cars, drivers and tracks from two full FIA GT Championships and challenges casual racers to become world-class drivers. Directed by professional racing driver and former FIA GT Team Owner, Henrik Roos, GTR sets new standards for racing realism on console. GTR is expected to ship globally on Xbox 360 in spring 2007.

"GTR sets new standards for racing realism on console." that sounds good!!! Most console racing games aren't realistic driveable like PC racing games so this should be the first one for console!
 
GT5 isn't confirm yet but GT4 HD will coming on PS3.
 
Froza have some great graphic and sound, the damage on it is pretty impressive as well, I love how you can customize the car's exterior and such, but when it come to game play and physic, GT4 still take first by a somewhat wide margin, it's weird how we can't do donut in GT4, but ah, it's only one little thing.

We, DRLZ, can do donuts and kevin harvick burnouts on Nascar Thunder 2004 PC. I bet GTR can do donuts.
 
I know plenty other games can, hell GT3 have donuts as well, and another user at the GT board recently went back to GT3 and he mentioned that it was much more fun back then.
 
I saw Forza Motorsports for xbox at wal mart for ten bucks. This would run on xbox 360. Should I get it or wait for xbox 360 version?
 
Ten bucks? Damn good deal if you ask me!

I was a GT2 addict but these games has an "ABS throttle" where in Forza it's more realistic. I had more fun in Forza than GT myself. I am looking forward to Forza 2 big time with the new steering wheel.

Wally World has a deal that bundles Project Gotham Racing 3 (for the xbox360) along with Forza for 49 bucks. Forza 2 is coming to the xbox 360 sooner or later.
 
Just bought Forza Motorsport for ten bucks. This is my first xbox game on my 360 I have played. Its that easy it just update itself when you put in the xbox 360. Ive played it and its pretty good. I still believe Nascar Thunder 2004 (PC) is better because it's close to the real thing. This Forza is better racing game on console that I have played so far. Maybe Forza 2 could do better. I still believe GTR gonna be the best racing game on console because I've played their old GT legends demo on PC before and its very very realistic better than Nascar thunder 2004 (PC). I can't wait for all these racing games to come out so I can see which is the best one before we start a league.

:afro: Big Ben in Bulls!

Ought to try Nascar Thunder 2004 (PC) and turn off all of assists in diffuculty settings and it will be very realistic and fun. There should be a demo for you to download and test it out. This demo will allow you to play online but only allow 4 online peepz on one track or two.

GTR video goes good great! Spring 2007! Oh man, that is long way to go.

About Moto GP 2006 became popular last month from xbox site.

Good timing for GTR to have Microsoft Wireless Driving wheel should be coming in Fall or Winter 2006.

I will be 33 yrs old! Good thing I dont have white hairs yet.
 
I have found GTR 2 demo for PC! I had downloaded it and boy it sure does required high graphics card which my girlfriend's Laptop doesnt meet. I had to play it with low graphics setting on this laptop. I am mad at my 1,700 dollars PC broke down! Oh well.

By the way GTR 2 is the most best racing video game I ever raced! I was amazed by that. I checked everything there... they have almost same thing as Nascar Thunder 2004 but more better.

GTR 2 for PC will come out on Sept 1st 2006 for 29.99

I am gonna buy that for sure but sad my gf's laptop sucks for high graphics games. Guess I have to find a way to get 2,000 dollars PC lol.

I think GTR on xbox 360 would be great since I played GTR 2 demo on PC.
 
Here are the screenshots of GTR 2 PC

I have played PGR3 and it doesnt drive very good and the control is very slow reponse when you turn. GTR 2 is more realistic and driveable.

Poor you got white hairs. My girlfriend just found one white hair on my goatee!!! Yikes!!! :hyper:
