In the time that it's taken to make GT5, Forza has released three games and seen the entire development cycle of 2 games, both next-gen. Plus, even if GT5 has livery editing, an auction house, full damage, A.I. worth a damn and a physics model that can match Forza. they will have only had one game to nail all of those things, while Forza has had 2 or 3 iterations of the game to perfect all of these features to work out the kinks.

Anybody cockblocks me from this gets themselves dead! I'm not afraid of a 12-yr old kid who cuts in front of me. Unless he's really big.
Can anyone tell me if the roads are just flat with textures or if they have actually applied normal mapping/bump mapping or some shadder effects (like in Burnout Paradise PC)?
I know to some of you, you may think this is mental and who cares but I think the days of flat textures should by now be far behind us for all games in general.
