   It's an exceptionally good driving simulator, just a shit racing   
   simulator due to the absence of AI and damage. But it's a much better   
   driving simulator than F355. Forcing in-car view and making it hard   
   doesn't make it realistic. The car physics and handling model in GT is   
   untouched on consoles (Forza 2 doesn't even come close).
