The VR version of gran turismo is the game changer for me. As someone who doesnt get a chance to be around these beautiful cars, the chance to walk around a mclaren f1, or to sit in it made me tear up.

It feels like polyphony actually have a passion for cars and want to show off that passion through the game. Turn 10 seem to have no passion at all. How can you approve and be proud of 15 year old 3d car models...

We went from, "This game just released so it's superior to the older game, and that might make it an unfair comparison but.."

to, "This game just released so it may not be polished like the older game, and have as many updates as the older games, so you might think this is an unfair comparison"


Good lord

The fact that polyphony games spent a whole PlayStation gen to re do the car model just shows their passion for cars and the game itself

In terms of graphics. I think it speaks volumes that I still visiting GT7s photo mode on a daily basis to make pictures and I bought the game at launch.

I respect Forza Motorsport and all, but when my friends and I have a weekend without the wives and kids, we still pick up the PSVR2 and the logitech G29, and do time attacks in GT7 one after the other and try to beat the actual best time (ghost) of the group.
It is a new way for us to enjoy time spent together, and the cheering and seeing what our friend is doing in VR on the social screen is a damn treat for car guy friends like us.

Also, it is cheaper than karting, which we used to do before GT7 VR, and we can drink while doing it, making the experience a whooole lot more hilarious. :D

Biggest advantage for gran turismo is the support for vr where all those beautifully crafted cockpits are shown off in a proper way. Also kinda insane that gt7 looks that much better the FM even thought its running on a machine which costs like a thrid of that pc.

I got into GT when it came out and my friends and I were as serious as you could get with the customization and races as you can get. Gran Turismo is the ultimate driving simulator to me

I love both games equally. There are things about both that piss me off. Just today I got a reward in GT7 that ALLOWS me to BUY the car! Like really?!? I don’t get the car, but now I’m allowed to spend 1000000 credits to buy it. That just pisses me off 😂. The amount that cars cost is inexcusable. I have a full time job and school and other hobbies. I adore the new master licenses though. Chef’s kiss

Ooft
As a GT fan I was hoping Forza could innovate on the simcade market, because competition improves everyone

GTS and FM7 got released in the same week in 2017, so the time taken to develop the latest version of GT7 is same as time taken to develop the latest version of FM......in that sense, I am surprised just how underbaked FM 2023 really is

Yes, Kazunori Yamauchi, the creator of the Gran Turismo video game series, is a lifelong car enthusiast and a racing driver, with a passion for cars and motorsport that he has channeled into his work. And it shows in his games

I have been delightfully surprised at the GR3 and 4 cars in GT7.
Apparently these are the cars the physics model was based on.
The higher downloaded cars of Group 3 are quite sensitive to ride height and suspension setup.
If the height is too low and suspension too soft, the underbody aero effect is destroyed and grip dissappears quickly. Raise the height too much and stiffen the suspension too much and it's the same result in the opposite direction. Aero effect either isn't there, or is weird on straights, and dissappears under braking and turn in.
Ir provides a very in depth challenge for the tuning forks of racing enthusiasm.
But simply having cars that have both grip, and speed, at the same time. Very nice, and realistic.
Unlike Project Cars, where it's one or the other, never both.

I like the little things like the hopeless factory clutch compared to much faster capability after upgrades. I imagine some people probably think it's a glitch that you have to shift like your driving an 88 Yugo until you upgrade the full assembly

Great breakdown of the physics of each game, RC 👍🏽

1440p at 120 FPS VRR on GT is pretty smooth.

This was my first VR game, and I can say as a kid obsessing over the r34 Gtr, buying every hot wheels version, diecast, and game it was ever in; being able to walk around it in life size scale and sit in it in VR fr made me tear up. Forza could never.

absolutely loved the nostalgic old forza and GT music you were playing in the background, really nice touch that might go unnoticed... I have been trying to decide between these two as my main sim and this really helped! great vid.
