You play with a wheel or controller?

Other than the 24 Hours Le Mans... 
If I wanna get serious I use a wheel, maybe about 70% of the time I use a controller tho. I have the fanatec porche wheel it works on ps3 and xbox, got it on ebay for $80.00
Hearing Forza fans say Forza killed GT is like Killzone fans saying Killzone shyts on Halo.... Comical
Another difference between Forza and GT heads. New Forza game releases, gets played for the first 3 months then gets thrown in the bushes. Turn 10 moves on to the next project, while continuing to milk yall with car packs. 2 years later, and Polyphony Digital is still blessing the masses with Updates/Cars/Tracks/Fixes/Improvements and the online community is alive and kicking just as it was at release.
Forza Community is still alive . I played lastnight to full 16 player rooms. Horizon was just turn 10 makin some extra money, for those people that like less sim styled racing. Polyphony is lettin turn 10 get the best of them though, they have been a bit more creative I think. They created the drive line assist, Customizable parts, and paint shop, car clubs, auction house, store front, great physics, and way better sound. Was a big GT fan for years, but they take too long trying to just perfect visuals, when they need to upgrade those old ass sound effects. We all know the driving is good, but they need to be more creative. I wonder why GT5 sales are down in the us though?

Valid points. Since I'm into racing sims purely for the driving aspect of it all, I really couldn't care less about some of the other bullet points of both games, since at their core they're marketed as driving sims. I'll go with whichever has the better/more realistic driving experience. Everything else is just bells and whistles. I would argue that GT5 has weather, day/night cycles, 1000+ cars[watch courtdog write an essay about this], nicer visuals, 3D etc., but at the end of the day none of those things mean shyt to me. I turn on the game, hop online for a few hours of competitive racing then turn that shyt back off. This is what makes a GT game a GT game:

True indeed it does boil down to driving, and ya really can't go wrong with either, and I can't front the visuals in GT5 are just that much more crisp. Wish these teams could develop a game together.

Anyone tried amatuer racing in real life? Seems way more fun than the video games:

nothing is more fun than video games. If they were to make a Gianna Michaels simulator for the PS4/720 that sh1t would be 100x better than the actual thing
Not sure if you're serious but whatever. Real life is more fun than video games in my opinion. I'd rather be actually playing basketball than sitting on a couch all day playing NBA 2K but that's just me.
