OK...I've already addressed pretty much everything you just said in this thread so don't really feel like going over it again. I've gotten my point across and you have your viewpoint. This is all starting to become a much ado about nothing sort of scenario. I hate having to go over things I've already gone over.
Do you not want discussion regarding the subject? Were you not so keen to froth at the issue in the thread, yet when I ask for clarification and elaboration into your commentary and proof of your knowledge with both games... you walk away? Quite convenient, indeed.
Proof of my knowledge as I've already addressed comes from my research and the fact that I spent hours creating both hypethreads...And also I did give you feedback and said I don't need to play the game to see certain aspects of the game. I actually said in the previous pages and multiple times that there are things you need to play a game to see and things you just don't need to play to see. I used how everyone knew Ryse' gameplay looked like shit (and Knack's) wayy before both games released, and I didnt' actually run my conclusion on this portion because it was subjective, which was why I said the only things you actually need to play the games to see are the physics/controls which are already subjective to begin with. The OP isn't addressing the games I don't know many times I have to say this. It's addressing the shadiness of the reviews of the games. So, I've already gone over everything you're asking with you or other people. I'm not going to run circles.
Why would you spend hours creating an internet forum thread? That's really pathetic.
You'll say this, and I'll say that, and you''ll say this, and I'll say that...Clone, this is getting old. You're a joke to me. Shut up and go away.

Reading about a game is not the same as playing the game--how keen are you in the consistently of the graphics, the audio, multiplayer, or the AI in the game itself? You know, the aspects the review critiqued the game for? You're not. I'm not. How can you critique the reviewer in his wording when you know not the context in which is written? When I critiqued Kevin V's Mass Effect review, along with others, he eventually came out and agreed his wording in that instance I quoted was poor but it needed not be updated because it wasn't factually incorrect, and at that time Gamespot didn't update such unless it was grievous errors.
You're addressing the reviews, and your premise rests on both being wrong, wrong to the point of being "biased and paid for." A pretty serious conviction to hold. Yet the foundation to call Gamespot out on that is shaky, or non-existent, as you have no experience in the matter at all--which begs the question, why are you emotionally invested into a piece of plastic that you have not played? Is it because you call yourself a Sony fanboy and thus the lens that you look through are heavily clouded?
So...circles? Everything you're asking me to address such as AI and gameplay, I did acknowledge and specifically avoided and still managed to make my point. Everything I used to base this thread on, since you're saying my theory has a shaky-to-none foundation, are based on actual non subjective factual characteristics of both games. I specifically avoided things like physics, controls, because you actually have to play the game to draw your own opinion on these...I don't have to have played it...and see you're asking a question I already answered...again. "why are you emotionally invested into a piece of plastic that you have not played?" I already said I only noticed and suspected the review because I know what both games feature due to making the hype threads, thus when I read the reviews it seemed really off so I went digging. And don't bring up the "sony fanboy lens". It's not going to do anything. If you think I don't know how or when to take of the fanboy lenses then you don't deserve to have me respond to you at all.

because forza looks prettier, easier to drive, has more features like rewind button, a lot of fast cars...thats why.
oh and reviewers arent that good with racing games....
Forza does not have more features than GT6. Don't even...
1. It's supposed to look prettier...it better look prettier
2. Easier to drive...subject...GT6 is said to have the best driving physics till date
3. GT6 has shit tons more cars...
It's either your post is supposed to be either sarcastic or ironic or idk what to tell you : /
lol you cant tell? i think forza has always been the more inferior game. its easier to drive, has a lot of bells and whistles like rewinding time, custom paint jobs, and their car selection is more towards faster cars....but imo, its too easy of a game so thats why it scores better.
gran turismo is a grind fest with no real point....but what it does do is provide better driving than forza
Was, was a grind fest, until update 1.02, you can now, earn 4 million$ in the seasonal events and missions races, also login bonuses are back, which bring even more money, and cash payouts for all events got a generous boost, so instead of getting 5900$ for a race in IA you now get 20.000 for one race. they literally fixed everything.
and yea i agree with you, the physics are crazy, it's very hard to drive at or near the limit with out spinning out, even in a slower car, it's a massive challenge where as GT5 was a cake walk. GT6 in terms of driving physics, is really awful close to GTR2, they nearly feel the same when using the same cars for comparison.
The bottomline is that GT6 pretty much thought of everything, and anything it missed can be fixed with minor updates...The game absolutely shatters any fucking standards in terms of hardware pushing and this isn't even commended in the so called review, while Forza is praised for having better graphics than it's competition. "Hey, your 25 year old son is really really strong. Wow he literally just beat up a baby. You should've seen it. He's so strong." Again, the question is still not answered. Since when do we praise games for doing things they're supposed to do?

You can make 3 Forza 5 games out of the cars and tracks in GT6. In GT6 more cars are coming and tracks. Two racing games one has better graphics/AI and the other has everything else in spades. Yet the game with less than a 1/3 of the content and features scores a 9 and cost the same price as GT6.
You also have to spend 500 bucks plus tax and 60 bucks on live gold to play Forza 5. Also your wheel from the 360 does not work on the x1 so you have to buy that also to get the complete racing experience. I would have to take value into account here as Forza 5 sucks balls on that point. I have played the game in the store and Laguna Seca is missing the red apex markers also some track side details so I call bullshit on the laser scanning.
Everything you listed here, no-scope, are things that should be in the review but somehow managed to be missed. It's like they went out of their way to mention this. GS needs to learn how to review games.
Not just me...a shit ton of people have stopped looking to this site for reviews. Microspot has become a joke.
