Encontrei este artigo num blog generalista de video-jogos. Achei interessante pois suporta os seus argumentos com as evidências reais e não apenas por conversa de fanboy. Este artigo procura evidenciar alguns aspectos técnicos que ilustram bem a apurada física do GT5 Prologue a nível de condução.

There is no doubt in my mind that Forza 2 is an excellent racing game. Some can even say that it is the best racing game out right now, and I agree, Forza 2 has a lot going for it: good customization, hot paint jobs, a nice online trading system, engine swaps etc. But the thing is, some people want to believe that it has better driving physics than Gran Turismo 5, and they are truly mistaken.
Although driving in Forza 2 may seem real, let’s take a look at the DRIVING physics of each game. Here is a video of the drifting in Forza 2 (Rear Wheel Drive) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OK1mDXoR2I&feature=related notice how when drifting in Forza 2, you do not have to turn before you drift (how you just slide right into the drift) well… this is absolutely the wrong DRIVING PHYSICS. If you can just drift around a 180 degree turn just by hitting the E-brake, that is incorrect, period. That is not how car physics work. Here is a video of Gran Turismo 5 (All Wheel Drive) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qFl_vMS17I&feature=related notice how he takes the standard maneuver on turning before he drifts, that is the REAL way to drift in REAL life. Here is a video of REAL drifting in REAL life http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZMcDLUHDzQ&feature=related notice how they take the same maneuver before they drift (as seen in Gran Turismo 5 video) that my friends is how it is done in Gran Turismo 5 and in REAL LIFE. For instance, learning to drift in Forza 2, took me no time at all, it required little skill besides knowing when to start sliding. Any of you that have played Gran Turismo would understand that it takes a lot of practice to learn how to drift in Gran Turismo. It takes time and effort to know even the basics. I am not saying that Forza 2 has bad physics, in fact they are really good, just not to the accuracy of Gran Turismo 5. Both have their pros and cons, but when it comes to the physics, Forza 2 is outdone by Gran Turismo 5. This why the pros turn to the Gran Turismo series to practice their maneuvers, timing, breaking, turning, etc.
