No added "fun" then. I was hugely dissapointed with GT5 on release, i thought it would have been brilliant with forza 3 being so good and polophony wanting to out do them. I played the forza 4 the other day and just instantly fell in love again, something GTt could never accomplish....

So many things annoyed me about GT5 but actually driving the car felt perfect to me. I got rid of it and went back to Forza 3 because of all the trimmings but the car control never felt right there again.
All cars getting interior views makes me want to grab GT5 again now.
