This truly has become a simulation type game in all aspects.

Could you elaborate a bit on this? I am presently having a mild dispute with another bbs member who shall remain nameless (other than he sometimes goes by the handle "Monkey Brains") who maintains that this is an arcade game, not a simulation, and is thus does not reflect truly realistic racing. In other words, he says authenticity has been compromised in order to make the play action more entertaining.

There is certainly nothing wrong with this -- after all, video games are GAMES whose primary purpose is entertainment. It is just that I have heard reports from other sources that the game realism and the physics of the car handling in GT-3 is extraordinarily true to life.

Can you offer any insights?
