Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?


What happens when two of the most talented development studios in the world tackle the same subject matter - albeit with very different priorities? Polyphony Digital and Turn 10 routinely deliver some of the technologically impressive racing games on consoles - and with the release of the PC/Xbox Series Forza Motorsport, we can finally deliver our long awaited sequel to our GT Sport/FM7 head-to-head. This is Gran Turismo 7 vs Forza Motorsport - our most ambitious comparison video yet.

Let me guess GT7 has better car models, Forza has better reflections in gameplay aka Ray tracing and better RTAO + lighting , Better Trees/Crowd/Clouds/Rain and tracks details ?

Now i will watch the video to see if i'm right about one thing!

It's an hour+ video, I am not going to summarize this shit.

Everyone watch it and come up to your own conclusions.

In my experience it's like this:

Gameplay with camera in 3rd person / chase - Forza looks better.
Any other possible scenario - Gran Turismo looks better.

Digital Foundry should stop with the hypocrisy that they arent clickbait-y or incite console wars, 'cause videos like this one says otherwise

I dont blame them, its part of the business, and I enjoy the kind of analysis. But then they shouldnt act like they are above this, 'cause they obviously arent.
