From what I remember, they did address it but only just; it's not that much better than it used to be.

I haven't played the game in 6+ months though, so my memory is foggy.

GT5 fails as a racing game when compared to any of the Forzas...

reason as to why I bought another XBox and Forza 3......

on a side note, since I bought the 4gig console it looks like I'm gonna have to buy the bigger hard drive when Forza 4 comes out as this one was filled up in about 5min.... only reason I bought the 4gig console was Best Buy here had it miss-priced at $99......

tons of new features, too many to get into.

but i will tell you one:
Turn 10 Studios (Forza developer) partnered with Pirelli for 100% of the tire data in Forza 4.

They said there are not translations or equations to take pirellis data and conform it to fit their simulation specs....
that the Tire data, whatever it may be, is directly used and controlling their tire models and tire physics with out ANY changes by Turn 10.

people who have played the game have said that the "feel" of the cars is above and beyond any forza game to date in large part due to the new Pirelli stuff.

i have also read drag racing will be in Forza 4, hopefully a little more refined.

OP, you should have pre-ordered the GOW3 Xbox Bundle and then Forza 4.

GOW3 hits in 18 days and Forza 4 next month.
