I honestly shed a tear reading this.
GT7 is going to be really good.

SullysCigar1319d ago

I'm going to need PSVR2 details, but it really does sound awesome already.

I expect (and hope for!) that announcement to come with a NG headset in December. GT Sport was amazing in VR, but way too limited due to hardware. Their next effort will be a huge improvement.

Aussiesummer1319d ago

I wouldn't count on it, it's still being held back by that same limited hardware.

Day one for me. It’s the only simulator I play. When I want to go flying down the street raising hell, it’s Forza Horizon. When I want a ACTUAL simulation hardcore racer I accept no substitutes. Gran Turismo all the way.

If you're into actual hardcore simulators, why Gran Turismo over Asseto Corsa or iRacing? Just curious

Deathdeliverer1320d ago

I didn’t like the last asseto corsa (didn’t like GT Sport either- it was more like a spin-off trial than a real GT which is why it wasn’t numbered) and I stopped playing PC games a few years ago. I’ll probably get a top notch desktop sometime in 2022 though. Maybe I’ll see what’s around then. In the mean time though, it’ll be GT7.

All cars/tracks are approved by the FIA, TAG Heuer is sponsor, partner and TIMEKEEPER for GT Sport without whom

there would never been an F1/GP championship.

Car manufacturers etc don't announce partnerships at kiddie gaming shows but

at International Car shows. Concept/"Vision" cars have been given to GT fans first to test drive and THEN

Gran Turismo is enjoyable and fun while hardcore simulators are not.
Not to mention very expensive just to get into it.

bacano1319d ago

Thanks, those are interesting facts indeed, even if some of them are not directly related to simulation. I mean, as a Williams fan I love TAG Heuer liveries, but I don't think that their presence impacts how accurately cars are reproduced. The exclusive release of concepts cars is pretty cool though.

Asseto Corsa milestones are not that impressive, but the work they have made to capture the feedback of real cars is at an obsessive level, particularly with Lamborghini and Ferrari. About iRacing I don't know that much, but Max Verstappen loves it.

For the record, I love GT. I remember how amazing the Giraud shading looked when the first one came out. It was the future.

Check out Assetto Corsa is you enjoy hardcore simulation driving games. Project Cars 2 also holds up well.

Deathdeliverer1320d ago (Edited 1320d ago )

@Colbertinator

I’ve never tried Project Cars actually. It’s that good huh? All the different race types that are in GT are in Project Cars? Rally, F1, Drag, Street race, track race, so forth on some real tracks and courses?
*edit*
After a quick google search Project Cars 2 even has go carts 🤣😂 Wow. I might have to see if that’s the game I’ll get to hold me off to GT. That sounds awesome.

DAP racing Kart from the 80s. Do you people even PLAY GT??

giveyerheadawobble1319d ago (Edited 1319d ago )

Not sure why you're getting downvoted for stating a fact. Out of all the so called simulators, Assetto Corsa is regarded by most sim purists as being the closest to how the actual cars handle and drive in real life. The detail in the nuances of driving is astonishing. It puts GT to shame in the "sim" aspect. Assetto is lacking in the fun stuff, though. Still, if you find just driving cars fun, then Assetto cant be touched. I'd absolutely love it if GT7 was complete in VR, though. The love PD puts into the aesthetics of the cars would be porn in VR.

@mikey

Money talks, son. Just because it is the official licence, it doesn't mean jack shit. Stop shilling for an inferior sim. And I say this as a fan of Gran Turismo. But I like being as close to the real thing as possible, and GT ain't it. Not even close.

They went nuclear option to stop car and save modding.
Come on man all they need is a system that will detect abnormal PP and car data so they will ban players the second they joined online.
But so much of their single player features require internet so they already knew that they already have so many loopholes for hackers modders to do what they do best.
So in a way I can't blame them going such extreme practice.
Not happy about that and we still stuck with 16 car grid.
RT is currently only on replays and garage so they still have 5 months to make that work during races but won't be a deal breaker for me if they still can't.
Disappointed but understandable still getting the game regardless.

Extermin8or3_1319d ago

The fia likely required them to go nuclear to stop cheating via save file editing. It's likely a precondition fir the fia to license the game.

Why Portability Still Matters for Nintendo Switch 2—and What We’re Hoping to See

Nintendo Switch 2 upgrades portability with a bigger screen, 1080p handheld play, and Wi-Fi 6. Here's why it still matters in 2025.

As someone who travels for work I still care about portable systems.

I have found using remote play in a hotel room is an excellent experience in a major city as I've got my console hard wired to a gigabit connection at home however it's not perfect if power trips the console tends to go to the repair section and can't be booted remotely so it's a annoying call to family to power it on for me.

A hotel out of town or regionally though that can cause havok for remote play as I'm always on 5g using it hotel wifi is never good enough for a solid remote play session.

But leaving a stable location and getting onto a plane or train and there's little to no chance of a good experience with remote play thats where something like the switch 2 will really shine for me personally long haul flights are exhausting and one of my most hated things the switch has been invaluable for me and I'll absolutely be upgrading

Goodguy0110h ago

Nintendo has always done it the best, handheld is in their genes. I do wish their dock could be like an egpu though and it make it much more powerful, it's a bit harder for me to play portable now for some odd reason, love just sitting on the couch with a big screen and controller. And ofc always great to have the portable option and for me it's best for smaller games.

jznrpg9h ago

I was hoping for a little more than 540p upscaled

UltimateOwnage7h ago

IMO, 540P upscaled in portable mode to a 1080P screen using DLSS on the tensor cores will likely extend battery life using a lower TDP and provide much better anti-aliasing and similar clarity compared to native 1080P with med/low AA at a higher TDP. It’s just a better way to use a mobile chipset. That’s not a flaw or weakness, it’s a key benefit for the portable design of the platform.

repsahj2h ago

Lol, even the impressive upscaling feature of Switch 2 can now spin to a negative one.

I do appreciate the changes to the levelling system in the remaster which lessens the hassle of min/max with regards to effects class skills have on attributes(missed these in Skyrim).

The level scaling is still a problem though as you end up with crappy uniques if you find them low level. They did fix this with regards to items from one of the DLCs but it should be across the board.

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

funny that you say that. That would make you the Titanic since you're having a crashout over this game performing well.
