It is my understanding that the online play on GT4 will feature an eight car field. Is it a reasonable assumption that the other modes will feature eight cars (as opposed to the normal six) as well? I guess we'll know for sure in a few days.
I know that... but I would rather have 11 good opponents and OK graphics than to have 5 bad opponents and great graphics. After all, the reason I buy the game is for the racing.
They can still have good graphics. Take test drive lemans for DC for example. That was one of the best looking games for DC and it was able to have 20 cars on the track at once.
