For me it definitely isn't in the same league, one seems like PGR (great) and the other like Toca/GT/Forza (nope).

same. Both look great, I love racing games and both look to appeal in different ways.
I really want logitech DFGT support for PCars though. I can probably live without it for DC, but it looks essential for PCars. If Sony/logitech don't sort that out I'd probably have to go PC
Don't plan on it man...Logitech doesn't make gaming devices anymore so their motivation to work on it is going to be slim...
The whole situation makes me REALLY happy that I was able to jump on the Thrustmaster deal back before GT6 came out and upgrade my DFGT...
I think someone has not played Pcars have they..hmm..hmm..i think yes!
DC is ALOT prettier than Pcars and is pushing a Lighting system alone with full GI that leaves Pcars in the wake...I think you are kidding yourself, Pcars is nice but a mixed bag of Great cars and Shocking Scenery and some bad textures, But 60Fps is a great bonus!
WTF are you talking about? Are you talking about the PS4 version of pCARS? If so, what videos of pCARS are you refering to? Are you talking about the PC version?
I will not reply anything else until you explain yourself, because what you're saying doesn't make any sense.

Why would anyone bring up the pc version in a ps4 thread?

In terms of graphics, I think polyphony is going to steal the show with GT7.
That whole post is pretty confusing so maybe the poster himself/herself is confused.

GT7 Prologue must be around the corner surely?
Obviously it's the ps4 project cars that looks whatever. The PC version looks pretty good but I still think Driveclub looks better than the pc version. I was watching the video for the weather testing on PCars and some of the textures are bad. The lighting in Driveclub is simply superior to that in project cars and Driveclub has better looking environments. PCars on PC looks good though, it's the ps4 version that looks worse than nfs rivals.

ITT: people comparing obvious PS4 PCars caprtured to the downsampled media images of DC.
Considering what we've seen from Driveclub so far, I wouldn't be surprised if the game actually looks that good come October. Project Cars just seems like another good looking racer I can get on my PC.

As good as the 8K images? Okay. From what little we've seen so far DC suffers from the same IQ problems as the images from the OP.
dont mess with my heart
dude we get it, yout pc has the best graphics. can we get past that now?
tel us more about the tyre physics and wet track. it looks great as it is now. game is not released yet.
Good God. That video is two years old. Lighting is still being tweaked to this day, scenery texturework from two year ago is being replaced with ultra detailed textures (you can check them anywhere).
It's odd how you state things as facts when A) You clearly haven't played pCARS B) You haven't played Drive Club either. You have watched a two years old video of pCARS and have compared it to the latest trailer from DC. And you want people to take you seriously?
They look very different so it's tough to compare but I actually kind of agree that DC looks more attractive in motion than pCARS on the PC. :\
Pretty simply I am talking about the PC version (as per your quoted post that brought the PC version to a PS4 thread) of Pcars not looking at good as DC on PS4, quite simple really

That is given, i mean look at GT6 it look almost as good as Forza 5 and it runs 1080p and (almost) 60fps i can't even imagine how good GT7 will be on PS4, Polyphony Digital are tech wizards.
I swear I'd love to have the TV, trade PS3s, or smoke whatever people are smoking that think this. It's not close at all...especially during a race @ 1080p on a 40"+ set...let alone material/environment/texture wise. People that say this couldn't have spent hours in both games. It IS incredible what they pull off on the hardware though.
Anyway, I agree 100% on GT7. It should blow our socks off visually. I hope we get a true GT7 and not an up-port of GT6. PD should be in heaven with the PS4's hardware.

Why did you put a Forza 5 pic in there?
The Bourgeoisie Insanity Racing Rollercoaster of Versus Whatever is starting my friend and we can't do anything about it.
In the months to come everything will be compared. This generation, PC from 300-3000$, past generation, even PS2/Xbox era pictures will rise from their graves to be compared from reason of Why Not.
DriveClub will be compared to Forza 5, Forza 5 will be compared to GT6 Spec 2, pCARS will be compared with GRID Autosport, Forza Horizon 2 with Ridge Racer 7 if needed and for good measure someone will use GT3 and GT4 photomode with legendary Forza 2's MX-5, infamous GT5's Daihatsu Midget and possibly Enthusia, just because. Somebody somewhere will thrown in iRacing and RaceRoom, while others will compare everything with Asseto Corsa and honor own Bourgeoisie.
It will be cringe worthy and amazing in the same time.

From what I've seen so far both games look really similar.

Probably for comparison. There's a lot of DOF/haze going on in the pCARS images, but Forza 5 doesn't have any filters like that and looks fantastically sharp.

Forza 5 also doesn't have a dynamic weather/lighting/time of day system. His point is moot.
Forza 5 is fantastically barebones. In more ways than one.
Good point.
pCars has a lot going on and for it to look like that is an achievement in my book..
GT's photomode pics are still the best in the business imo. I believe GT7 on PS4 will set the bar once more.

Wow, I think both look great. There's not enough to judge. Isn't one going for 60fps
and the other 30fps?
and the other 30fps?
The one thing I really hope is that visual disparity between cars and environments isn't so deep. It seems like a lot of the budget was spent on the cars (a little too much to be honest)
But yeah, I definitely think they'll be pushing the boundaries like they usually do.
Wow, I tried the DS4 on PC and they did some amazing work. I've never played a game with a better use of the motion rumble, it's just perfect and gives a great feel. You feel everything, including shifting gears and kerbs. It's a very precise and fine grained effect.
The only problem that annoys me graphically is that shadows even at "ultra" swim incredibly just ahead of the car. So you get constantly this huge shimmering on those tracks that have tree shadows on the road, like Nordschleife.

Hahaha that's the funniest most truthful representation of every racing thread on GAf. Bravo sir.

SMS made masterpiece with physics and FFB wheel support sub-engine that was used in Shift games before EA decided to cripple them.
Buy it and enjoy mate.
Always meant to pick this up but never got around to it. Still going for around £20, it seems. Ouch!
If you can find physical version anywhere, I would welcome if you would buy it for me - I will pay you for the both game and postage.
I tried to find a UK/PAL version of the game for years, but that game is impossible to find anywhere.
I still only have my digital version, bought for the full price upon release on the US store, because it came to UK store a whole month later (PAL?UK release was a total mayhem thanx to licensing rights)
Also, physical version was nowhere to be found on regular online stores that ship to Croatia and it is the only racing game from this generation that I do not have in my collection on disc.
Your help will be much appreciated
And game is absolutely worth the price if played by the FFB wheel, take my word for that, screw the haters.

It's just so stupid. In the end all that should really matter is how the game plays. Visual treats are great for watching replays or taking pictures, but 99% of the time you should be focused on what's happening on the road directly in front of you.
Unless you are a degenerate heathen who drives in 3rd person view
TBH I expected more ['on next gen], tho this is quite above GT6, both games have harsh aliasing sometimes, and makes screens look bad. I look forward to trying it. Also fwiw I think that pcars lighting is generally slightly off- as in unnatural? anyone else get that feel from the game?
on the other hand will look great on tv. SO nice that racing titles are bouncing back for awhile,

Exactly.
It's like how people are trying to convince themselves that Watch_Dogs is impressive because Infamous SS isn't on their platform of choice.
That will be amazing...i guess i can give DriveClub a pass at 30fps being it more like a Project Gothem Racer but more sim styled racers like this and GT and Forza imho NEED to be at 60fps.

Take that, DriveClub
I have full faith Polyphony will raise the bar graphically for all racers when GT7 drops because the developers there are so damn competent at getting the most out of static hardware and using some sort of crazy magic to make the hardware do things it was not meant to do that it never fails to make jaws drop so i am expecting a "built from ground up" Polyphony PS4 GT game engine to rock the world.
Good words and the reason why is that this may push DC devs to get their damn game at 60fps. There is no reason why the PS4 cannot do the current DC visuals at a rock solid 60fps but the question may be that it is still too early in PS4's life-cycle for that to happen until more optimized Sony SDK packages are released later on in the future.
As it stands right now, i forget exactly how one developer put it that is working on a Sony exclusive but he stated that it would be another year or two until we see PS4 optimized enough where its full assets of its hardware are being used close to 100% and even after that comes console development wizardry where dev studios find more and more ways to squeeze more out of the hardware along with tricks and treats adding more to the visuals.

When did you get a chance to play this? I didn't think you'd know anyone other than I who has it. And hopefully you haven't been breaking into my place to play it!
