hmm, iv'e been playing forza horizon 2 for more than a year, and the amount of stuff you can do is just incredible. just the drift tandems alone is a huge part of the game, such a great community for the customization stuff too, i tuned my supra to 1200 HP and that orange paul walker car color. and the storm island expansion is huge too, and the A.I is awesome! GT is really fun too, but i think they take too much time to make a game. but currently, GT6>forza 5. everything else forza > GT. just my opinion tho. to answer your original question, forza horizon 2 has loads of content in the single player too. forza 5 was the first forza game to lack in content, it will be solved with forza 6.

Well , it seems we don't play the games the same way.

I guess i don't care for the new models of cars , because Le Mans cars are all time kings.

So i just use old model cars and see how much i can tune them to reach Dream cup levels.

I'm gonna see and make a Supra in GT6 to see if my 900HP R32 can beat your car.

Well, the only GT game I played was on PS2. I did not play the most recent GT release, I don't really have a basis for comparison.....I've bought every single Forza game since the 2nd one , so my opinion is somewhat irrelevant here. That's one of the issues with GT games.....they need to release more of them......otherwise, if they wait to long, they stop being relevant. Of course, it's my fault I didn't play GT on PS3, but I would like them to come out with one on PS4 so I can make thorough comparisons.

The only thing I will say about the GT vs Forza debate, is that I don't just enjoy Forza because it is a good racing franchise, and I enjoy racers. I love the online community aspect of it too. You have these really talented artists that create incredible designs and upload them for the public to use, there are many Twitter channels dedicated to things like this. There's a pretty cool sense of community for car enthusiasts, people who really know their stuff about tuning.

Often, when I play online in a Forza game, I will be in a lobby where you have several people talking about cars, tuning , etc. ....there are not many other games who have fostered this kind of community. It's not just about playing a good racer from a technical perspective, but it's joining up with these groups of people who really like cars. I have many people on my friend's list who only play Forza games, nothing else. They've played hundreds of hours of Forza, more than me, but I never see them playing anything else....many of those people were attracted to Forza because they are car enthusiasts first, not gamers.

GT is more in the sim aspect, i don't think they'll allow you to upgrade that car to crazy levels.

P.S i got it to 267 MPH. some youtubers have got it to 274 MPH, most probably due to a better tune. it's great for drifting too, just gotta tune the gear ratio to low levels and the camber at 3, then hold the throttle at 4th gear since the pull is too much to hold the drift.

Trust me friend , there are ways to make cheat cars on GT6.

Why do you think there a so many lobies that say "EVOS only" ? Because the old cars are PS2 cars and they are more fun to tune.

Beatting Evos with a MX5 is just the best way to troll in GT5 and GT6.

And if you want to make your Supra reach that , you need to tune more then just the gears.

And i only drift in a RX7 or a S2000 if i'm bored.

Forza by far. People picking Gran Truismo seriously haven't played a Forza game maybe ever.

Turn 10 caught and surpassed Polyphony last gen early on and has been widening the gap ever since.

Forza without a doubt. I used to love GT and it was my favorite back in the PS1 and PS2 Era. It has since become a bit of a joke amongst sim racers. Polyphony Digital has really shit the bed with that franchise.

@tushar172787: Title is missleading , because the Supra can't reach 1400HP in GT6 , its on;y 864HP and thats without oil change.

But if you notice , even with Soft Tire it still burmouts like crazy and it can't turn verry well.

But then again , i don't like the Supra that much to learn it.

I preferred GT until I tried Forza Motorsport 2.

Then it was like an instant conversion to another religion. One with cookies and milk and no brussel sprouts.

Then GT5 came out and sealed the deal with its awful sound effects and inconsistent car models.

The Forza series is better. It's like when Medal Of Honour declined and COD took over, or when Guitar Hero was outclassed by Rock Band. It happens.

Not a good comparisen , because you can't play Forza on PS and GT on Xbox.

Both are good , and both comunities don't care what the other is doing.

Will wait to see what GT7 does , and if it fails.

Forza games are just better. Less of a cluster ****, all that jazz. The money they put into a GT game should wield far better results but they choose to make cluttered messes. The last great GT game was GT4. The best GT game is GT3, probably the greatest racer of all time. Not for content or driving physics (which have all been well superceded), but for how well made the game is and the perfect progression. A-Spec is the most iconic racing game of all time. Forza games basically built on that and thats what a modern day racer is, meaning Forza is the definative racing franchise today, and probably going forward.

GT went down after 4, Forza was dominant in last gen. Looks like Forza is down too due to milking like EA's NFS. Annualizing games stifle creativity. So my answer is none.

Both games have sim elements. Both are trying to have a good balance of fun and realism, while GT is arguably a little more realistic in some places, but still not a real sim.

I find that Forza is a more "fun" game for the average Joe, that might not even own a racing wheel. It is more forgiving, and therefore better at making you think you are hot shit at driving. Games like Forza Horizon made me jealous as a long time Gran Turismo fan since the PlayStation 1 days. Things like the customization and ways you can personalize your car in Forza, is fantastic, but I find that the actual driving is more rewarding in GT when you get into it with a proper wheel, and with the driving aids set to OFF.

My single biggest issue with Gran Turismo was always the sounds. Everything from the tire squealing, to the way the engines sound way too smooth and refined, not wild, loud and powerful like a real race car.

Well...GT6 in it's current state is a better game than Forza 2...

Apart from that, though, Forza all the way. GT is...kinda a mess and no one seems interested in cleaning it up or admitting there is a problem.

I dont even own a PS4 yet let alone a PS3 .. If that makes me a cow , roflcopter. Also when i was the most harsh critic PS3 ever saw , i was also a big cow ? When i called CRAPS numerous PS3 games , was i a cow ? When i stated numerous times , even few months back , how bad decisions Sony made with PS3 and i was laughing my ass on them for numerous years , was i a cow ? Back then cows were like really mad with me i assure you ! Back then i was the hater/lem/gtfo guy. You wish i were a cow but im not. Salt yourself please ! You wont find any other around to backup his logic and claims ( few guys even ) .

Dont let your fanboyism take over for what i prefer to play and why . I really think GT is one of the best driving simulators , if not the best , there are out there and its a big reason why i like these series otherwise i wouldnt even bother. Now go salt yourself hater .. you like it or not , ill be here and talk facts , truth and my opinion.

@AzatiS: You're consistently one of the biggest Cows on this board so this doesn't come off as a surprise in the slightest.

I dont even own a PS4 yet let alone a PS3 .. If that makes me a cow , roflcopter. Also when i was the most harsh critic PS3 ever saw , i was also a big cow ? When i called CRAPS numerous PS3 games , was i a cow ? When i stated numerous times , even few months back , how bad decisions Sony made with PS3 and i was laughing my ass on them for numerous years , was i a cow ? Back then cows were like really mad with me i assure you ! Back then i was the hater/lem/gtfo guy. You wish i were a cow but im not. Salt yourself please ! You wont find any other around to backup his logic and claims ( few guys even ) .

Dont let your fanboyism take over for what i prefer to play and why . I really think GT is one of the best driving simulators , if not the best , there are out there and its a big reason why i like these series otherwise i wouldnt even bother. Now go salt yourself hater .. you like it or not , ill be here and talk facts , truth and my opinion.

I'm not trying to go all "PC master race" on you, but you wont find that on the consoles. The console racers are suppose to be for everyone, and the "real" sim racers you probably never heard of, and are a niche market for the PC, for sim nerds with fully build racing seat setups and triple screens. Most people would find them too difficult and unforgiving to be fun, unless you get into the game and learn the mechanics. Something as basic as throttle management to not spin out your car is almost non existent in Forza and Gran Turismo, even with driving aids OFF. I still like both games. They are very fun. I don't look down my nose at them, they are just made for a much broader audience.

I know what you mean , im PC gamer myself the last 18 years. You have a point there. I agree with you but when it comes to Forza vs GT , ill go with GT all day long simply because it has that "real" sim way more than Forza which it might be better overall but since im not in racing games that much either way ill go with the one gives me the more close to simulation experience than "fun" if you get me.

I agree with everything you said though.

GT was great early on but Poly got lazy and Forza took the crown...

Forza, because of the Horizon spinoff, beyond that I have no interest in either, I'd taken the Dirt series over those two.

Forza now holds the crown as best racing game on console. That title used to belong to GT, but PD lost its way.

Even if you made everything else even between the two, Forza would win because of its online drift lobbies. Some of the best chat in all of gaming can be found there.

Neither, Mario Kart all the way.

can you troll people effectively in it? like crashing out people to make them lose?

Who's trolling? I take Mario Kart over the straight up Forza and GT releases also. LOL I'm just not a racing enthusiast.

I like FH2. I like the open world and road aspect to it. Glad friends put me on to it.

you misunderstood my comment. i said "do you troll people effectively in it" meaning "can you troll people while racing online, ie, crashing other cars out".

Gran turismo.Now with the power of ps4 they can do a lot of things better than the ps3 which was hard to programming.

your post makes no sense. how do you know that a PS4 GT will be better than forza? they have no info on it. right now, what do you think is the better franchise? that's the question TC asked, not saying imaginary games will be better than either.

Hey man.Its personal preference.I prefer gran turismo because grew up with GT.First GT I played was GT 2 on ps1.Also, GT has more tracks than forza.I think GT5 has about 50 tracks and forza 6 will have 36.And forza 6 is a 2015 game.
