Maybe once PC is released on the PS4 you'll be able to see which looks best (on PS4). As it stands currently, it is the best looking racer so far on next gen hardware.

Game looks effin' amazing.
Seriously? Project Cars is a nice looking game in screenshots and replays but it doesn't look all that great when you're actually playing it. They still have a ways to go in the lighting departments on some tracks.
I don't see how PC still doesn't win just because it's on a console. Price of entry doesn't devalue the quality of said game.
Not sure. It obviously isn't gameplay, but they have already confirmed that it's in-engine. My guess is, it suggests what replay videos can look like.

What are you peeps talking about gameplay for? Its a damn racing game. You will hit the acceleration button, hit the brake button, drift around corners and run into stuff. What else is there to know?
This game will end up being one of the best looking next-gen games of 2014 I think. The environments look stunning and absolutely no end in sight to the draw distance. Photo-realistic looking in many places. Awesome stuff.
Which is why this secretive release date is killing me. Just let me know if it will hit Q1 atleast ...

Take a look at my post on page 3. And obviously some things are not finished on some tracks the game is far from being done...
I hope Driveclub will be more PGR like than NFS like in gameplay. Big difference even if all you do is pressing R2 and L2.

If you want to get the best looking version of PC, then you need more money than you would by buying a PS4 (PS+ version of DC is free), besides... actual PC gameplay footage doesn't look that ace (environments aren't up to snuff compared to DC).

You know, because it's still in development...
In have some footage on my PC that I recorded that will blow drive club out of the water. Don't make me turn some of it into gif's...
That said, Driveclub looks fantastic in its own right and I can't wait for it. It's a completely different type of game to pCars anyway.
It's one of the only great looking tracks in pCARS so far. I started it up like a week ago and was super disappointed at the progress of the visuals. Though I guess it's still pretty early. Nurburgring looks sooooo bad.
Do it. But best to post it in the next gen racing game comparison thread instead.
Last time I check, both games were still in development.

bullshots right? There is no way it will actually look like that right? Thats pretty damn amazing imo
Environments aside, their focus has always been cars first. Admittedly PC and Driveclub are going for two different experiences, PC car detail has no rival imo. That's all I personally care about since all I see is the is my racing setup, the cockpit of the car, and the road.
I'm guessing replay footage.

It's one of the few tracks that is actually close to being finished.
Brands Hatch and the Ring also fall into this category.

Looks awesome! However, what's up with the reflection on the car in this GIF?
It's just a bunch of static, non-moving trees; nothing that's actually moving past the car seems to be reflected. Or am I looking at it wrong? Looks weird anyhow.
I was thinking the same thing. no poles or anything... would be fine if it was parked... but moving the reflection should be changing... not just pulsing. Still I love the snow environment. Can't wait for the game
I'd like to respectfully disagree.
Probably a bug or something, you can see the reflection moving on some of the other gif on the last page.
I hope you weren't expecting me to be impressed because i'm not.

That tunnel almost looks PSX like texture wise speaking.
Yup. That's definitely some kind of bug. Hope it's early footage. There are GIFs where the environment reflects on the chrome inside the car. So I'm confident this won't be the case in-game.

Nice very encouraging, I'm enjoying GT6... but I'm ready to drive on my PS4.
Not to mention the horrible looking materials in the car and the poor lighting. One could would argue that need for speed rivals looks better than project cars.

Yea really, Driveclub looks noticeably better
i wasn't really sure what his point was with that image... its like "You're wrong!! Let me show you why you are right!"

So ready for this game
This post and GIF are perfect
My sides LMFAO
Some cars in pCARS have really bad material shaders (which I assume are placeholder) and some are fantastic. The Pagani Huayra interior for example looks incredible with really nice looking materials.

Why would you show this gif to prove your point? Drive Club, according to this new video, looks way better than that. Look at the environments first of all..
Hahaha not really no. I just said that I disagreed and posted a gif to show my point.
Who knows. Maybe it's an old video that was leaked. I hope not, I mean I was expecting Driveclub to release in February. Obviously it won't be the case but I really can't wait for that game lol.

Looks gorgeous.
To be honest what you just described also applies to the absolute worst of racing games. That's kind of why people are talking about gameplay. I know it'll feel great because I like how Evo makes their games. I wish this shit was out now! But people are curious about how it plays because otherwise it's already looking amazing.
poor lighting? oh man

So more the controls them anything then. Will it be a tight sim racer like gran Turismo or a more arcade racer like PGR. I'm leaning toward a PGR feel with some solid physics handling things. Not Need for Speed though. Always felt those handling characteristics were awful

I'm 100% sure it's conceptual footage.

Unfortunately not this game will support. Sony rumours VR could support it if real deal.

Lol!
The imperfections is what differentiates this footage from Project Cars in my opinion. The gifs posted in the OP look real. If it wasn't for the fact know these come from a game, I'd think they were from a GoPro or something. Amazing.
Project Cars ends up looking almost too perfect and is easy to spot this it's computer graphics.

The lighting on those trees and vegetation look pretty basic and last-gen, not to mention they're 2D and don't give off nearly the same density as DC's.

The progress on this game is why I don't mind the delays. With every batch of Gifs this game moves higher up my most own list!

Stop showing us bull shots and release the game already
The fact that this is a free psn title and they have been showing off the same demo for the past 2 years make me think this game will be pretty as hell...and be complete shit in everything else like Killzone

The top is Project Cars? Wow ...
That looks really ... boxy. No real artistic value there. Look at the background of the DriveClub and the camera and the way the background flows, the draw distance, lack of pop-in, etc. That Project Cars footage looks .. artificial. More went into perfect AA and such moreso then making it LOOK realistic. Just looks off.

Uh, 2 years? They barely announced this game last year. The full game will also be sold at retail while the PS+ version is the barebones version with a small number of cars/tracks(extended demo, if you will).
