    It was just "annouced" and nothing was said, I don't think we need a wiki page as soon as fucking possible.

    Why are you calling me out?   
     
    I don't care...and considering that GT5 outsold the top selling Forza game in it's first 12 days, the majority of driving fans don't care either.

    Looking forward to this, naturally. Here's hoping there's some major additions to Forza 4, like weather on all tracks, day-to-night cycle on all tracks, open-wheel cars, or more than eight in multiplayer. Hoping for one or more of those, but more of Forza 3 with more tracks and more options would be enough to ensure a purchase for me.

    @KaosAngel:  The Jonas Brothers sold shitloads of their crap, too. Sales numbers are not an indicator for quality and GT5 is just leeching it's sales from former glory, back in the days when it still was the best driving game out there. Not anymore.

    My thoughts exactly on the former. The jumps Forza has made, especially the physics between 2 and 3, have made the game leaps and bounds better each time for me.
     
    Coincidentally, I was working on Solid Gold in Forza 3 instead of watching the VGAs, since I didn't expect this announcement. Over a year later, and I'm still only 73.9% done with career mode. I think I need to set a goal for S-ranking Forza 2 and 3 before 4 comes out, just so I don't leave too many unfinished racing sims in my wake.

    @JJWeatherman:  Sure, but after awhile the updates become too frequent and incremental to really get anyone excited about the game.  Even if it is good.
     
    @Baillie: There's something to be said for timeliness, but some of the most highly regarded developers are the most notoriously perfectionist ones (e.g. Blizzard, Valve).

    Yeah, it's just too bad that as a whole product it was lazy, sloppy, and desperately trying to capture the very audience you are talking about. 
    There is also the fact that GT5 is a lot newer than Forza 3, so I'll wait till Forza 4 comes out to see if they manage to meet the pavement track simulation of GT5.

    So the brand "Gran Turismo" is well known ... what a shocker!! 
     
    GT5 could've been a 50%-product and it would've sold the same numbers.
     
    "Gran Turismo" exists about 10 years longer than "Forza". Of course, it has has a larger fanbase.

    I don't care to get too involved in this silly argument that has nothing to do with Forza 4, but I don't think anyone reasonable said GT5 wasn't going to sell. Hell, even I figured it would wildly outsell Forza on name recognition alone. If anything, people were questioning whether it would be good or not, and considering the response post-release, I don't think that argument has been perfectly settled.
     
    @Agent_Lost said:

    Personally, I'm wondering just how much they'll get Top Gear involved in Forza 4, since they gained Top Gear's support pretty late into Forza 3's life cycle. I assume most people will want that test track, but personally, I'm hoping they find a way to include that road in Eastern Europe that was called the best driving road ever. Long tracks is something Forza's really good with, especially in multiplayer, and I'd love to see them take advantage of that.

    Eh, I think 2 years is about the time it takes to release a polished big budget sequel these days.  Just enough time to make some improvements and add a few new features, but not really enough time for innovation.  Anyways, I have no problem with the Forza series whatsoever, and I'm not trying to accuse Turn 10/MGS of milking Forza or anything.  I was just trying to counter the idea (which I hear frequently) that Turn 10 being able to release X number of games in the time it takes Polyphony to make one is some sort of black eye for Polyphony.  The only problem I had with GT5's release is that it was announced and pushed back so many times.  Otherwise, I very much like developers to have the ability to take as much time as they want to make a game.

    It's what happens when you get highly devoted fans of one series going up against another group of fans of another series. I think there's a term for that, but I'm going to pretend it's slipping my mind.
     
    Seriously, though, I'm with you. I wouldn't mind playing GT5 alongside Forza 3 at the moment, but the cost for me to properly enjoy GT5 is a bit prohibitive, lacking a PS3 and all. I just want both games to feed off the additions and improvements of one another for better sim racing games overall.

    I would like some more Forza.  I have GT5 from gamefly, and i just can't get into it like I did Forza 2, and more so, Forza 3.
    I hope they keep with the ability to pick cars I like, and be able to race them in whatever events are available, like in Forza 3.  I am not sure why the Forza games worked so well for me, but, I would probably buy Forza 4 sometime in the first week of its release.

    " GT5 Sucks!!! Just kidding couldn't help my self after seeing the fanboy war going down in here.  Anyway going back on topic I have been trying Forza 3 for awhile now and starting to get the hang of it and love how it gives non-hardcore racing game fans away into the genre (always wanted to try and get into the genre and never could really get the hand of other games). So I a optimistic for this game and I hope they add cool features to it. Also why is it always when two games are in the same genre that if you like one game you have to consider te other one crap? "
