This is obviously subjective but I wanted to hear what you guys thought.
So I've been playing GT4 again (I skipped GT3) and what a game. But I wanted to point out some visual preferences that I have over to GT5P.
GT4 seems "cleaner" to me. I will try to explain myself and tell me if I'm making sense. The colors in GT4 are a little more muted and more significantly there's a bright feeling about the location and cars that makes it feel fun.
On the other hand, GT5P obviously has better technical graphical prowess but there are some things that take away from it. For starters it's pretty saturated with like primary colors. But what seems to bother me most is this bloom light reflection on cars and locations that take away from the details on the car. It creates a white wash reflection (on car bodies mostly that take away from the beautiful detail of the car) when the sun light is behind you and when you are facing the sun light the location gets more white and the cars get significantly darker.
Now I know the latter is a realistic effect of what a lens would do and the former light bloom on the cars bodies is an added effect though it is a tad over done in my eyes, these effects don't make the game look as appealing to me even with the jaw dropping car models.
There is some secret factor (spice) to GT4 that they nailed that gave it an umpf. My GT5P experience was great (realistic car driving) but bland (I guess some visual elements and a mundane campaign). What do you guys think? I know I'm being picky but GT forums are to discuss anything GT related right?
Also since I'm so picky, I want the GT4 menu sound effects, sparks from the cars when they're too low and scratch the road, and that beautiful blue hue color palette they sometimes show on GT5 replay trailers on Nurburgring. Anyone notice that?
Ok I talk lots.
