The only "graphical" problem with GTR is the game looks too clean, the tracks, the cars, the surroundings etc. It doesnt have the "photo realistic" value :p .
Whereas rFactor looks too cool, so does LFS-SP2, well not as good looking but atleast has the realistic value on the track.

Regardless of all, this game's just awesome. The sound, the physics, the feel, the game play and the ingame graphics are just top notch. Only when you're watching the replay, the cars look too plastic though. It doesnt make you feel its real, but then again, no PC Racing Sims can give that feel IMHO.

Any Idea / Details on the English Version Launch of this game?

Just my opinion.

I see what you are saying, except the bouncing comment. Ever watched FIA GT footage? Or even alms? The cars bounce that much. Or if you dont like the bouncing you can just soften the dampers and rebound values and get a cadilac ride.

And just so you know these vids were not made with quality in mind, they are promo material that was played on big plasma screens attached to ceilings

If you think it looks a bit too rednerd you can always bump up the antialiasing values...

The quality is great, I'm not ripping that... I'm not sure how it drives, but during the replays it doesn't look like the tires touch the ground, and the cars look rendered in 3D while the surroundings feel "2D".. It's kind of hard to explain, I guess it's a perception thing.

To be honest with you in race its a different story. I dont like replays too much my self, but when you are in car with AF and AA bumped out everything maxed out it looks awesome.

I know what you are saying about Rfactor, I think it looks great...but it has that cartoonish look it it imo. I mean it looks great, but it just different from GTR I would say. GTR actually uses real images for textures, while Rfactor is fictional drawing.....

But I see what you are saying about the graphics feel. But you can always put in on your TV instead of ht ecomputer monitor and get that console, gran turismo look.

The english version is coming out "soon"
