I wont let myself get Hyped like what you guys did for Pcars. I'll wait to try it out on my rig before saying anything.

Try what out? It's a short CGI clip, not a videogame...

For some reason I thought that was a Pcars clip. My bad.

It won't be long before games get to this level.

If Pcars 2 looked even close to that, it would run at like 5 fps on console I reckon

I agree. Here's two gorgeous sims for their time, released 10 and a half years apart.

Gran Turismo 4 (Dec 2004) AU Falcon V8 Supercar:

Project CARS (May 2015) FG Falcon V8 Supercar:

If this is how far graphics in racing sims has come in just over a decade, imagine what sims will look like in another decade...

Mike, the improvement might not be linear. The diminishing return will kick in and we will not see such dramatic difference like that in the future. We can use racing as a good analogy. When we first start sim racing, we are usually very bad and crash everywhere. once we learn the basic of braking, we sudenly improve our lap times a whole lot. However, to drive to the limit from that point, it will take us a longgggggg time because diminishing return effect kicks in.
