QFT...all are better 'racers' than GT. I haven't played iRacing though...hmmm, will have to check that out. I agree with post above, it would be nice to see another console exclusive bite the dust (because they only have a couple left) but this game is about as overrated as any game coming out that has HALO, METAL GEAR, or FINAL FANTASY in the name.

Gran Turismo is amazing dude, just not a sim, and no, there is nothing similiar on PC. If you are trying to compare GT to say, GTR Evo, don't.

PS. I am huge into racing sims but GT2 is still the best racing game ever made IMO. Come on, 650+ cars and loads of modding/tuning? GT = Awesome, all these guys are likely just trying to sound like "sim gear heads" when they probably couldn't tell you the difference between a Boxer 4 and a I-4. And Metal Gear and Final Fantasy are overated? All credit was lost with that comment. Just because these games are not your style doesn't mean overrated. Metal Gear Solid for PSX is one of the best video games period ever released. FF6 overrated?

I'm pretty sure nothing comes close to Gran Turismo, Forza is good, but it is just trying to be Gran Turismo.

I'm not a fan boy, except for my computer ha ha, but if this comes to the Xbox, a part of me will die. But Sony owns Polyphony don't they? So that could never happen? It would leave Playstation with precious few exclusives. I'd be fine if it was a pc game though!

They need to take GT2(with all the "random" used cars you could get) upgrade the graphics to now, and throw in all the tracks of the newest one plus the old ones. That would make for such an epic racing game...

Oh and damage. I don't know if the latest one has damage but when I used to play it(GT1, 2, and A-Spec) religiously it didn't.

If this comes out I will not pirate it. In fact, I'll probably buy 10 copies and give them to everyone who might pirate it. I shall be deliriously happy
