I'm sorry man - I actually meant the complete opposite of what you interpreted. I got a chance to play GT5 Prologue and Forza 3 with wheels almost side by side at a PAX Prime and the difference is night and day. Forza has nowhere near the level of fidelity and attention to detail as Gran Turismo, even the wheel integration wasn't at all as tight as it is in GT. I just don't understand the other side in this argument and your post is kinda emblematic of why. Everyone who bashes GT5 or claims Forza is better never actually articulates why and, even if they do, it never has anything to do with the actual gameplay. Just look at what Sharky is complaining about - too many similar cars when the game had rally racing, NASCAR, pick up trucks, 1970s volkswagon vans, World War II jeeps, an entire section dedicated to Nurburgring and go karts. Forza is literally 1/10 the game Gran Turismo is and even when they do get that stuff - they sell it to you as DLC (lol).

The saddest part is that they're now advertising Forza 6 with features GT has had for generations. If you really think Polyphony was phoning it in, I'd hate to know what you think Turn 10 has been doing.
