These New GIFs from GT Sport Beta Can Easily Be Mistaken for Real Life Races

The GT Sport beta is underway and a few of those lucky testers have shared some stunning animated images (GIFs) that can pass for real life races.

[odderz]

It looks borderline photorealistic! I wonder what the difference will be between PS4 and PS4 Pro...

[Gazondaily]

THIS is the visual quality i expect from Polyphony. Those replays could EASILY fool people as being real life footage

[bouzebbal]

every GT is a step closer to photorealism since A-spec.
GT games always delivered high fidelity graphics.

[Utalkin2me]

@letsa_go

Cause he is a known troll in Playstation articles. He is just being sarcastic. He has been trying to change his tune of late. But sorry as bad as he was, no coming back.

Should i really dig into your comments and show?

[Gazondaily]

@Utalkin

"He is just being sarcastic."

I'm not? Visually it looks stunning.

@lets

Just petty haters. Dont mind them ☺

[Utalkin2me]

@Septic

"Lol 😂 The pain Forza causes you fanboys amuses me greatly"

"Lmao. Go check the review scores and come back to me. Forza schooled GT a long time ago."

"Forza is King..."

Those are quotes in like just the last 10 hours. Im not even going to take my time to quote a long time ago, when you was straight up trolling PS articles.

[xHeavYx]

Septic a fanboy? No way.
I mean, it's not like there is a video on youtube where he is so happy that the Xbox finally outsold the PS4 in the UK... right?

@Utalkin 2

@lets_go- Want proof of how these haters cherry pick? Let me show you how this little hater of mine deceives.

My comment 1:

***Lol 😂 The pain Forza causes you fanboys amuses me greatly***

The comment I replied to said this:

"More like The Jester of racing." In reference to Forza :

http://n4g.com/news/2034003...

My comment 2:

***Lmao. Go check the review scores and come back to me. Forza schooled GT a long time ago.***

Responding to habitual troll and Xbox hater Edmix who said this:

"If the game is good, racing fans would migrate over, sorry but its not happening with this series. Bi yearly is hurting this game and clearly Turn 10 isn't THAT good.

So its going to take them, what 7 or 8 games to get this correct or?"

My comment 3:

***Forza is King***

AND this is proof of why I'm getting disagrees. Rabid fanboys like Utalkin2me cant even handle that Forza has received critical acclaim and is highly rated.

So much is his deception that in my comments that he posted he didn't paste these same comments made:

"Forza is King of racers and has been for some time now. If GT Sport surpasses it then fair play. But for now...Playstation Nation better recognise 😎"

Or my past comments praising the game when i first (quite rightly) critiqued it:

"This is looking so much better than before. Might become the must-have racer of this year. Man the number of killer exclusives is crazy this year on PS!"

http://n4g.com/news/2027469...

AND to put it into perspective how these habitual hating trolls are such hypocrites:

Look at the comment I replied to!

SardoNumspa20h ago
And that is with the Turn 10 clowns crapping out an endless stream of their GT wannabe junk while GT has only a couple games max each gen.

REPLYAGREE 48DISAGREE 54

So there you have it. Its just that this community is full of Sony fanboys who represent the worst of the worst. They DO NOT accept any praise if you have previously critiqued their beloved company. They will hate on other games (see their shameful behaviour RE: Zelda vs Horizon) and Forza is just another game that causes them much pain.

SIT DOWN UTALKIN2ME (ps look at this guy's laughable comment history- full on hates all consoles but Sonys)

[Gazondaily]

@Heavy

Lol here's a video on youtube of me telling people to buy PS4 over Xbox One:
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

1:59 mark

Wanna fail harder?

You cant even praise PS games unless you form part of the giant human centipede these fanboys inter-digest with 😂😂😂

[Utalkin2me]

@Septic

Thanks for proving my point even further...Your trying to get on the good side of PS fans, so your trashy site can get some more hits. Cause it is and was failing as Xbox exclusive.

P.S. keep signing into those multiple accounts.

[gangsta_red]

"Your trying to get on the good side of PS fans, so your trashy site can get some more hits"

I don't know what's funnier the fact that people actually think someone HAS to get on the good side of sony fanboys or the fact that people can't understand that one can be a fan of both GT and Forza but still like one more than the other.

Only a sith deals in absolutes.

[MASTER_RAIDEN]

pay no mind to the haters my friend. since i started on this site ive been a raging PS fanboy and ive never thought of your posts as troll level, or even far-fetched the majority of the time.

[S2Killinit]

Im starting to think Septic and Gangster Red are the same person. Or they know each other.

But honestly, we all know Septic is vehemently against anything Playstation. Which is fine, but then he also trolls anything Playstation. Or at least he did. These days when i see his comments, I just cant believe that he is being honest because he has such a history of it. Maybe he is grown up who knows (i dont mean that in a bad way, i mean it literally). But i cant help feeling like its just temporary. Im waiting for him to go back to it. If he doesnt, then kudos to him.

[GTgamer]

Poor septic we all know about you so idont know why you even try at this point. We're not haters were just people who see you for what you are.

[Sunny_D]

And why would you have ever doubted PD in the first place? Let me guess because of the very first preview they showed of an unfinished build of a game in development? Typical

[TheCommentator]

Seriously, all you guys fanboying out on Septic need to chill out. He says the game looks good and you still find reasons to hate.

FYI, these gifs do make the game look way better than the crappy ones posted yesterday. GT Sport actually looks better, visually, than Forza 6 now (a two year old game... just saying). They definitely fixed the trees from the early builds which makes the cars fit into the scene in a much more impactful way. That's good. GT's lighting is better than Forza's too and that has always made the difference, even back in the PS2 days when Xbox had a major power advantage, GT had lighting that made still made it look better in some ways.

I'm just glad that the early GT Sport videos aren't what the game looks like anymore. It did look like crap. Poly said it was a work in progress, I know, but they shouldn't have shown it off so early if it wasn't ready enough. Sony needed to show it off with PSVR though, didn't they. It's the killer app for the peripheral.

That brings up a good question... Does anybody know what it looks like in VR now?

[TheCommentator]

Sunny D, that's exactly why. That was the only evidence to go on at the time. Basing what they are doing today on what they did in the past, however likely it may be, is still an assumption.

If you can assume that Polyphony is going to improve it to "typical" standards, I can say it looks like crap if that's what's being shown to the public... because that's what the evidence supported at that time.

But if you can assume, then I can also assume. Maybe Polyphony were showing off the VR graphics build at the time of the GT Port videos last year since it was debuted with PSVR.

[Gazondaily]

@Gr8b8

"He literally CHEERS out YEAAA!!! when someone mentions it...it's actually hilarious

but yet here he is, trying to say he's not a fanboy "

Whats hilarious is that I said YEAAH at the end of the video where I was praising PS on tv lmfao.

Why is it so easy to routinely school you keyboard warriors?! Lol you make it so easy!

[XanderZane]

The game looks great. Most GT games usually do. I'm usually never worried about how the GT game looks. In the end though, this will be the most important part.

"Of course, regardless of how spectacular it looks GT Sport will have to be judged by its gameplay first and foremost. "

I'd like to know more about the game, it's modes, customization, tracks, cars, damage, gameplay and the feel. DriveClub looked good too, but that was really it's best feature.

[ABizzel1]

It's okay not to care for someone's methods, but some of you guys are taking it a bit personal. I don't know Septic, but he's trying to make something of himself out of something he enjoys, and I have nothing but respect for that. So don't tear down his work and effort of building his site and work up, because of "pass mistakes" if that's what you want to call it, but people grow up and people change.

I can never knock anyone's hustle unless it's at the expense of others, so Septic keep doing what you're doing with your site, and if trolling was something you were doing previously, it sucks you'll have it stick with you for a while, but keep a neutral mind and stay positive, and move on from there. Best of luck from the states.

[bouzebbal]

Some pretty epic posts here..LOL
He is obviously favoring xbox over all the other, but i do think his post was sincere.
no one can deny GT's supremacy. Forza has nothing to do here because the only good Forza is Horizon and that is a different beast.¨
GT expectations are always over the roof because each and every single episode sets the bar higher. It is not flawless, but that's the reason why they keep improving.

[UltraNova]

GT will always be the racing game to beat, no matter the amount of wisfull thinking.

Look at what Grand Turismo Sport is about to start in the world of competitive racing...Polyphony sets the bar, end of story.

[TankCrossing]

Septic is a tosser.

[Utalkin2me]

@odderz

Here is a link to a article going into some detail about the differences.

http://www.redbull.com/en/g...

I must say im highly excited for Sport, i just wish PS4 would support my g27 wheel.

[Alexious]

Good thing I swapped my old PS4 for the Pro!

[Bathyj]

Someone told me about this. I have a G25.

http://shop.cronusmax.com/c...

Looks awesome. I think I'll get one.

[Utalkin2me]

@Bathyj

Ohh wow, thanks for link. Didnt know they had anything like that =).

[Bathyj]

Yeah. As a bonus if I get an XBOne, I can use my Dualshock 4 on it. Gives it a bit of added value.

[Dee_91]

woow. and logitech and thrustmasters claims it's sony fault older wheels wont work on ps4. yet heres a tiny usb stick that can make it work. what a load of bs... that being said the new Thrustmaster GT Sport Wheel looks like a winner to me. Hopefully it has some decent pedals

[Obscure_Observer]

It´s really impressive. The article´s tittle is misleading though. The headline should describe beta REPLAY gifs! There´s a no number of articles like this one which shows zero gameplay graphics and yet are not corrected.

[generic-user-name]

Replay mode is a game mode, so technically it is gameplay.

[Obscure_Observer]

@generic-user-name

No its not.

[Bruh]

Probably resolution, I presume around 1440p and including better tessellation and ambient occlusion

[xer0]

It's certainly shaping up to be an awesome experience.
I wonder how VR mode will turn out.

Only on Playstation! :)

[Tigerblud]

Dissapointing since the whole game isn't in VR.

[Festano]

Damn, I need to get an HDR TV!

[DarkStar1]

I think you people need to go out more, this is no where near photo realistic

[Rimeskeem]

As someone who has 20/20 vision, I disagree.

[TetsujinFranky]

Not a huge fan of racing games, but GT Sport looks awesome

[ccgr]

Wow will have to check this out in person!

[andrewsquall]

Okay, we get it. Stop rehashing the same neogaf post over and over again.

[Nitrowolf2]

It's only going to get worse come release, you are going to see a lot of Forza vs. GT comparison articles

[generic-user-name]

Hot tip: Don't click on articles that you don't like.

[Cmv38]

What type of foolishness is that? How can one bitch and complain if they don't click on articles i don't like.

[Dee_91]

lol
i mean he has a point. i was hoping to see some new gifs too. but i don't mind looking at these again..

[omarja1405]

Crazy details all around, No other racing game come this close.

[mark_parch]

it looks incredible. I'm still going to wait to see what motorsport 7 looks like as I only really have time to get stuck into one track racer this year.

[Relientk77]

This game looks ridic, it looks that good. That's crazy

[mafiahajeri]

My ass this would be mistaken for real life, it looks good but don't get carried away

[mark_parch]

my grandad would probably think its real lol

[Rimeskeem]

My parents thought I was watching a soccer game when I played FIFA

[obidanshinobi]

Cars yes, trees no.

[pody]

That's always been a problem with the GT series.

[Mastershake007]

All these GIFs are making me depressed I didn't get into the beta. 😞

[Liqu1d]

There's still a chance you'll get an invite for a later phase.

[Bathyj]

4Kcb@60fps. With those graphics?

Mother of God.

[Nitrowolf2]

I thought it was stated this game would be 30 frames per second or at least replays would be rendered at 4K at 30 frames

Either way im excited

[FITgamer]

It's just the replays. Would be suicide to for Polyphony to release a GT at 30 fps. The series has been 60 fps since the beginning.

[AmUnRa]

Yes it is 30fps is replay mode but 60fps @1080p in gamemode.

[obidanshinobi]

Whilst I was supremely disappointed with GT5 and 6, I remember having to do the same race 9 times in GT5 before I could afford a car to do the next championship, I'm kinda looking forward to this.
Yeah it probably won't beat Forza Horizon 3 as the best all round driving game but since the Forza 6 campaign is a piece of crap I'm looking forward to a new track racer.

[S2Killinit]

I refuse to believe this is a game...

[Pancit_Canton]

Jesus... Sony's First Party Developers are Insane. Kudos to Sony for investing heavily to their first party developers world wide. Bringing new technology and maximizing the potential of the PS4.

[sadsatan]

will there be damage e.g. bumpers falling off etc? i hope so, cars that bounce off each other with no effect of damage kills all realism imo

[81BX]

I always found the replay mode looks better than the ingame... this seems to take it up a notch. With that being said the last gigs were base ps4.... pro is going to murk realism.. wish I had a pro but glad I have a stock ps4

[feraldrgn]

Some people were knocking the environments/background, but they look good to me, going by those gifs.

[DJ]

I hope they offer a 30FPS mode so that we can keep that visual quality from the replays.

[Muzikguy]

This game is going to be awesome!!

[Sam Fisher]

I only buy 1 gt, every generation, as a hardcore gamer you need to atleast have 1 of each type of game this is my racing car

[Sam Fisher]

Edit "game" not car lol

[its_JEFF]

Yup, looks really good, but it's a GIF. I'm sure it's gonna look good, but to judge how a game is going to look based on a GIF is kinda crazy. GIF are low resolution files and are usually not very large. I'll wait to see high-resolution sreenshots or direct feed video.

[Segata]

Since early 3D days everyone swears it's photo realistic until the next generation when it looks dated. Looks good but racing games often do.

[Phil32]

Really amazing!

[InTheZoneAC]

pspoor version looks great

if you disagree then you can't take a joke and don't appreciate what I'm trying to say anyway

[JikguJay]

This games looks like a technically excellent masterpiece.
It's not easy to achieve this live-like photorealistic look, but they really nailed it.

[3-4-5]

* you guys are exaggerating a bit. They look good but not super realistic to the point I couldn't tell.

Good job to the dev team though.

[SaveFerris]

Looks great. But how does it sound?

[Gamist2dot0]

They hired the guy who worked on the audio for Forza.
https://www.gtplanet.net/po...

[Vasto]

Will this be open world?

[mister_joey_]

All of these images are fake. It was taken at a racetrack in France.

[DashArrivals]

That's just a flat out lie. lol

[zodiac909]

This game is looking juicy enough to eat.

[theshredded]

Ooo La la looks genuine fantastic, I have to finally invest in a racing gear because of this game.

[TheKingKratos]

Yep those amazing gifs are all from Base Ps4
they all look like real life but only better
good thing i have HDR tv which is the real deal this gen not RES
ps4+HDR is gaming bless
still can't believe that 250~300$ console can give those graphics.

[Psytrix]

Is that white one the evo prototype that never came to be? Loved the X - best car I've ever owned.

[Thefreeman012]

It's too bad this doesn't come to PC. Can't play racing in 1080 now that I have Ultrawide. Hope dirt 4 and Pcars 2 will live up to hype

[EyeAmTJ]

didn't look real to me i could tell it was a game from first glance, it barely looks better than Driveclub

[mastershredder]

Yeah, because any those of use that actually own sports or muscle cars are too stupid to see the difference. Go soak your head.

[MagicBeanz]

Polyphony defenitly stepped up their environment game, the cars always looked amazing now the world around them does too. Awesome!

[TheOptimist]

Same was said in some article for Yakuza 0, and we all know how photorealistic that is....

Stop hyping it up. It looks good, but photorealistic? Nahh.... Better than Forza Horizon 3? Sure, but then we will be comparing apples to oranges, because that is an open world, and this is pure racing, and linear games have better graphics for obvious reasons.

[Vasto]

That does not look better then Forza Horizon 3.

This looks real and its actual gameplay, not a replays.

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[MaximusPrime_]

i given up. i gotta pre-order this game. (my last GT was GT5 not 6, never played Project CARS and the other one...)

[chris235]

but if the actual gameplay is as tedious as previous installments then these graphics are pretty much worthless, arent' they?

[Tigerblud]

I hope this isn't the cover art.
