I too wondered how the AVEO5 got into FM3. GM doesn't have that kind of marketing scratch. Maybe GM agreed to license something else for free if they included it.

Conclusion: Go race LeMons.

Reason: You can take anything, and Murilee means anything below $500 to LeMons. And you actually do real racing with real people. And you actually do get punished for bad driving. In a way no video game will ever do.

PS The Snickers ad is really annoying.

Man, you people are insane. Learn to read, they are not telling you which is the better game, they are literally comparing car selection and nothing else. They know there is no true comparison between them other then selection, and I believe they did a good job too.

GT PSP has a lot of JGTC (Now Super GT) which own Aussie V8s. There's also the plethora of Prototype, GTP and GT1 style Le Mans cars, not to mention some of the greatest DTM cars.

What about Concept cars? Forza has no concept cars!

And American cars? Chaparrals? Callaways? An IROC Camaro?

What, no Original Mini in Forza?

As a PS3 owner, I just bought NFS Shift. It's actually pretty amazing. I'm still holding out for GT5.

@.357: really? I played the demo and Did. Not. Like. How is Shift? How does it compare to GT5 Prologue?

How about no comparison... If you own a 360 and like racing sims buy Forza, PSP vise versa... You cant compare console games and portable games, they dont even go after the same market. And I'm pretty sure if some one owns a 360 and likes racing sims there not going to buy a PSP just for GT...

Except for you... Yes, I see you...

I'm considering buying a PSP just so that I can drive the Citroen 2CV and VW Beetle 1100. Anyone can race a cool car; it takes a real man to race a slow, goofy-looking one.

I want to play Forza 3 just so I can build a 400hp track-killing Aveo sleeper.

@bzr: I'd probably turn one into an out-and-out race car, complete with a realistic livery.

This comparison confuses me. We have here 7 screenshots from Forza 3, 1 from GTPSP (not including that car select screen), and 1 from GT4.

My biggest issue with GT for PSP is that it's basically the old GT4 list with a few "stars" tacked on. ZR1 is great, R35 is great, sure ... but still no C63/E63/SL63 Benz? Pontiac Solstice CONCEPT!? The list of glaring omissions (and bizarre inclusions!) goes on and on ...

In reply to Gran Turismo For PSP Vs. Forza Motorsport 3: The Cars
Gran Turismo for PSP and Forza 3 DO NOT compete against each other. Forza 3 vs. GT5 on the other hand....

Or should I say Forza 4 or maybe 6 vs GT5.

I consider myself a casual gamer and in general I only play two kinds of games; racing sims and 1st person shooters, usually the realistic ones without the monsters and aliens. For the shooters I really don't see much of a difference between XBOX 360 and PS3. The games I like are usually ported to both or exclusive to the 360 (which I already have). Until I just have to have a Blu Ray player, which I don't yet, or until GT5 comes out, I don't see a point in getting a PS3. I have a feeling that I am not alone in this. GT2, GT3, and GT4 are the ONLY games I have ever bought in the week they were released and paid full price for, that might change when Forza 3 comes out.

I feel the need to defend the inclusion of crappy cars. Over the course of playing either Forza or GT, you get to a point where you have a ton of money and nothing impressive to spend it on. That's where you start buying crappy cars and seeing how grossly overpowered you can make them. 400 hp Aveo with stock brakes and suspension, why not?

@MajesticTrout: It's not just that, but the whole point to the Gran Turismo series is that it would have many of the cars the average player is likely to have and/or drive regularly. The creator of the series actually wants to get more of the old muscle cars into the list too.

Personally, I prefer the wider variety Forza offers. It only has half the cars, but those cars are more spread out where GT's list covers around 50 versions of each car. And there isn't any REAL difference except for a different wheel here and a different spoiler there.

Not to mention Forza 3 has DLC. The car list can expand as long as the developers continue to make them. On launch day you'll already have 2 different DLC. You've got the Ferrari 458 Italia as one and you'll have 2 extra tracks and a list of classic cars.

'65 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA
'64 Aston Martin DB5 Vantage
'81 BMW M1
'60 Chevrolet Corvette
'69 Dodge Charger
'57 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa
'80 Fiat 131 Abarth
'67 Lamborghini Miura P400
'71 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R
'65 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe

@Cory Noll: So GT5 is not compatible with DLC? Or, since the games not out yet, are the developers just gonna put everything they can in the game?

I get worried when DLC is announced before a game is even out yet.
