I think its just people like to peep over next doors fence to see whats happening...
I personally have visited next door, Well after a £40 a year subscription, gift cars (that I then had to buy to unlock) and constantly having pre teen Americans shouting all manner of inaccurate abuse at me (mainly about my race and sexual orientation)
Next door isnt a nice place to be!
To be fair, you can expect lots of youngin's slinging bad attempts at insults in GT too. Infact, numerically, possibly more, since there will probably be more copies sold...
Unfortunately they've started buying PS3s too. Every bloody time I pop in to something online, there are a bunch of loudmouths with a limited insult vocabulary (has Sony implemented a VOICE MUTE feature yet).
I dunno about all games, but Fat Princess definitely allows me to mute the most annoying of players 👍
Joking aside, I'm not sure why everyone is freaking. So T10 has decided to get TG on their game, whoopy do. This kind of stuff happens all the time, look at most major businesses. Someone does something ground breaking, then others try to follow and take advantage. What makes this so different?
Sh, you're speaking with... logic! What if GT5 shipped with a livery editor... would a bunch of people around here be calling it a "copy cat"?
Good on T10 for trying to get some of the TG pie. I don't care for the show much, but I know it's popular, and they're just trying to improve their business, which
any company would do. If they try to lock-down an exclusive partnership, I could understand some of the whining.
But forza 3 is an excellent game, it has some really good cars featured that GT5 might not have unfortunately and the gameplay is well structured, yes the physics are not really up to sim standards, and the graphics are inferior but how the hell does that mean that forza 3 fans are uneducated, stupid little kids?
Yep, a browse over the Forza car list is probably the most tempting thing the other game offers, to me anyways. They do have a lot of very cool, interesting cars that are unlikely (though still possible) to show up in GT5. Of course, if DLC does become a common thing in GT5... hooray!
What I meant was that stupid kids will see that T10 have put Forza in a shiny new package and think "OOH NEW GAME BUY BUY BUY" as they will form an uneducated opinion and not read up on GT5.
I can't imagine a lot of people who are interested in games are
that dumb. The parents or grandparents who buy their games for them might not know better though and be fooled by new packaging. It'd be like buying LBP Game of the Year Edition and expecting it to be an entirely new game!
That last bit is unwise though; people buying the new FM3 pack probably know of GT. A lot of friends know of it, and don't plan on buying it, but sticking with FM3. Why? They can't justify two systems, and overall, their gaming needs are better met with a 360.
Am I the only one who thinks that is a ridiculous statement?
Me too. If PD has such a close tie with Lotus... we'd get a freakin' Exige by now
