GT4, never played V8 SC's, but it just doesn't appeal to me (otherwise I would have played it :lol: )

V8sc hands down no contest

i have both
played GT4 and got soooo sick of rubbish dynamics.
GT2 is better imo. the designers in GT4 seem to have modeled everything on the worlds worst understeering car.

I find it amusing that only in NZ and aussie are tose games called V8 supercars 1,2, 3, elsewhere in the world they are called race driver 1,2,3

that line of games is Pretty freakin cool and as far as a true race simulator goes, they beat the GT range handsdown

I like things from both.

I think the physics are more fluid in GT4 but the sounds in GT4 definitely need work (what the heck is that weird whoosing sound when off the track/in the gravel pit? I wanna hear stones!)

Neither fully beats the other hands down IMO.

Having said that i own both, and enjoy playing them both. Gt4 moreso with the Logitech G25

GT5 Prologue kills them both. But GT4 was sick when it came out.

im actually very surprised that theres ppl who prefer the dynamics of gt4 vs V8S... i honestly found the driving dynamics of GT4 to be very sub par compared to GT2, let alone a more modern game

so i'm going to try some GT4 tonight and re-evaluate
