Uh... GT5 isn't out yet

Unless you mean the series in general, In which case I can't say because I've never played Forza.

Wow....I went and checked out the other GT5 screens.

I am finally impressed with a PS3 title. They keep on looking like GT5 and I might consider a big black brick down the road when the pricey-poo drops.



Other news: Peter Moore is leaving Xbox. He's moving his family back to Cali for personal reasons. He's going to head EA's sports divison. He will be missed.

Gran Turismo has always been the 'omg graphics!' series of the Playstation brand, along with the FF series. A GT title at launch really would have helped the PS3 out...

And yeah, I heard about the Peter Moore thing. Isn't some guy from EA replacing him?

Yeah; ex-head of EA. We'll see.

Moore gets 550k a year and got a 1.5 mil. signing bonus.

Sarah, thats what the speculation is. I hope so; if its as good as the first few......I'll totally look in to a PS3 at that point.

Twisted Metal: Black and the original were two of my favorite games. That's coming from somebody who's rather far from being a Sony fanboy. haha

The original Twisted Metal games were so much fun.

Online PS3 Twisted Metal would be so badass I can't even describe it.

I've heard Forza's a bitch; unless you're a racing genre extrordinare. I'm totally not. I'll probably never rent it; I did check out the demo which was good enough for me.

And you were right....The Darkness is a badass game.

Transformers: The Game is totally not. It sucks.

N-Doggy Dog, you should at least rent Forza for a week to give it a better test. Then we could race against eachother!
