Progress is amazing. I just finished my first run of Bloodborne, and it was great. Totally worth the 10 year wait.
I just hope that besides fixing the glitches and performance, they get to a point where they can add TAA or DLSS/FSR to fix the horrible aliasing that plagues so many PS4 games.

Pretty good modeling but I feel the material work is still a little lacking.

What can a sim racer do to impress me? I dunno.
This could be pretty good...infinitely more interesting than ETS imo for whatever reason.

Seems Forza Horizon 6 will be set in Japan at last.
Let's hope they don't fuck it up "from the ground up"...

If there is one thing that the Forza Horizon team have never been accused of it is building a new iteration from the ground up.Seems Forza Horizon 6 will be set in Japan at last.

The first thing i notice is this atrocious Chromatic Aberration on both screens.
It's destroying my eyes.

I know, it was just a joke on the Forza people that are now going to work in Horizon, and how they fucked Forza into the grave.
I think the only way they could fuck FH6 up would be if they suddenly go crazy with microtransactions or some ridiculous shit like that.
Let's hope it's really Japan and let's hope the best. Forza Horizon is a gold mine. They don't have to reinvent the wheel.

What makes it different from ETS, did they say anything? I have no idea. I see one big difference tho; Saber is using an updated graphics engine (although it looks like in-engine cinematics)... SCS (ETS) has been "lazy" AF in that department, it's sad.

Great article about PD's lighting and "physically based tone mapping"

The way Gran Turismo implements metallic paint is unmatchable.

I'm sure this will be beautiful. It needs proper RTGI and that includes cockpit view, where it's broken in Forza Motorsport

Forza Horizon 6's Japan is even bigger than Forza Horizon 5's map, which itself was double the size of FH4, but the new setting is "also dense" with "always something around the corner"
Tokyo City is also the series' largest urban area to date

It's far from perfect, but had to drop this upscaled and converted to 60fps Driveclub homage:
Imho, still kicking ass 10+ years later...

Be interesting to see what Playground do to improve the Forza engine for Horizon 6, hopefully the lighting engine has been improved.

Is it just me or is the whole genre in a sad state?

Not really. Obviously not every game is for everyone but there were some good drops in 2025 and seems like a lot more to come in 2026.
AC Rally just dropped in November and had a new content update in December, it's top tier. AC Evo got the Nürburgring update in December. We saw the return of Tokyo Xtreme Racer in 2025 and it was very well received. Wreckfest 2 is making slow but steady progress. Le Mans Ultimate is apparently very good and the most active sim racer on Steam. Gran Turismo 7 just had a massive update in December. Sonic and Mario both had great kart racing games. CarX Street got a ton of updates, JDM Japanese Drift Master came out on PC and Xbox in 2025 and coming to PS5 in 2026. Both of those were great. Honorable mention to Wreckreation, the devs have been pushing out a few updates and it's reached a Mostly Positive rating on Steam in the past 30 days.
In 2026 we're seeing the return of "Screamer" and "Carmageddon". Forza Horizon 6 will more than likely come out this year and everyone wants to go to Japan. The Crew Motorfest is getting an RC Car mode which looks really fun. TDU Solar Crown is finally getting some features that make it more like a TDU game. "Over the Hill" from Art of Rally devs, looks so good even if it's not necessarily a racing game. Super Woden Rally Edge (top down rally) looks great and is out in less than a week. Star Was Galactic Racer was announced. An AA/AAA star wars racing game is pretty insane. Ride 6 is out in February if you're into motorcycles. Gear.Club Unlimited 3 looks pretty good and is coming out soon first on Switch 2 and PC.
Could probably dig up some more stuff and there are a few on my wishlist that I didn't talk about. Personally I've been playing AC Rally, EVO, and EA's WRC.

Until Sega and Namco get back on it seriously, it'll continue to be.

The real important thing is... are they going to keep straight lying to our face with a fake presentation like they did with Forza Motorsport?

Watched some Assetto Corsa Evo vs GT7 comparisons on YT. Aside from physics which is obviously on AC side, but man, GT7 is still a king on visual side, especially lighting. After all these years.

Remember those GIFs back in the day along with Killzone just before the PS4 release, they looked so photorealistic and the hype they built.. man when I picked my PS4 up at midnight at a local shopping Mall the queue was enormous lol got back to the house around 1 and played Killzone for around 2hrs thinking fuck me these graphics are wild
