![]() ![]() GTR had an arcade mode, so it's probably suited for the XBox 360, though I doubt if it will sell that much. They don't look as slick as they drive - take the average console gamer, show them Project Gotham 3 and GTR, and what do you think they will buy. Many hardcore sims depend a lot on the mod community for their long term survival. ![]() No longer the case, the next gen consoles are powerful enough. Take GT4, in my eyes its a sim but it has its flaws with poor tyres modelling and some of its take on rear wheel drive models has to be questioned but it does still simulate certain areas of driving extremely well. The difference is the complexity or in another way, consoles can only do watered down sims. PC's can process more complex systems than a console but I do not agree with the fact that consoles can't do sims. Sims are not played from sofas, do you put the wheel on your lap I'd rather be 12 to 15 feet away from my flat screen and on my sofa! I do have a wheel and it doesn't work but that's besides the point.Ĭan't stand playing a game with my face 12 or 15 inches from the screen and on my chair. Linus, please don't drag RSC forum "wipers dabate" over here. In other words, consoles can only really produce watered down simulations. So to sum up, consoles can do simulations in the truest sense of what the word simulation means but they are not capable of doing then in as much detail as a PC due to its limitations. I have no doubt the PS2 could simulate a race car extemely well with a hell of a lot of detail but then there will be nothing left for anything else like decent sound, decent graphics, 20 cars to choose, 10 tracks etc etc and at the end of the day the developers are trying to produce a game/sim. ![]() So, its all to do with what is available to you. Take GTR2 for example, possibly the most accurate sim not yet to be released yet when its raining, where are the windscreen wipers? GPL does not have a tyre model yet some of the best physics around. The PC however can simulate far greater parameters and to a far higher level of detail but even then, they are still not perfect. ![]()
