Nor is my RUF a 9FF GT9R, but you don't seem to have much of a problem with that! :confusion-confused:
Haha, but anyway, I've always thought that the graphics in TDU2 were pretty darn good! But that also goes to the fact that I've never felt that graphics make or break a game; I care more about the gameplay (which, admittedly, could be improved) and what I can do in the game, which is pretty much anything. To me, there's a difference between modding in cars that you want (which I still don't really condone) and modding in better graphics. If you can't enjoy the game because of its graphics, then you probably are just looking for reasons not to enjoy the game.

*Counterpoint*: "But I enjoy the game, but I also just want better graphics!"

*Counter-counterpoint*: That's just an unnecessary waste for something that doesn't have that much of an effect on you.

I can't really criticize TDU2's graphics given the large map size for the game. For the xbox360, without blue ray, it has got to be dangerously close to spilling onto a second disk, and 2 disks are annoying.

And hooksie, 9ff GT9, not RGT ;)

One of the reasons they picked Ibiza and not Corsica as a second Island was that it wouldn't fit on a single DVD, lol.
With BluRay the bar will be raised again.

:doh: I was thinking "GT9R" when I was typing, but then I was thinking too much about RUF! Well, thanks for catching that anyway; I made the edit.

I would get TDU2 on PC but I would have to buy a new one, that's not in the cards right now because I'm in the process of finding and hopefully buying a new house. I already own a PS3, so it would be easy just to pick the game up for it. The other factor is I have a Logitech Driving Force Pro Wheel for the PS3 that I could use with TDU2, I do not own a wheel for the 360, but it sounds like graphics won't be a reason to buy it on PS3.
Unfortunately they do, you have more framerate issues on PS3, you have more session problems on PS3 and also the loading times on PS3 are ridiculous compared to Xbox 360. PS3 is by far the worst plattform for TDU 2 when it comes to framerate, graphics in general and also loadingtimes. The only advantage is that there is not as many hackers on the PS3. So far i have only seen the usual moneyhackers but i only have about 400h on the PS3.

On the other hand i have maybe 300h on the Xbox but there you see speedhackers, hacked cars.........every time you play. Sure there are a lot of hackers on the PC aswell but i must say the Xbox is close if not worse.

I don't regret buying it for the PS3 because i found a really great club and met some really good friends. Although the session issues have made it so we can almost never cruise we have to do it in Multiplayer races. Also the framerate issues makes you "sick". The framerate issues are present on the Xbox aswell but not even close to as bad as they are on the PS3.

Loadingtimes Xbox vs PS3.

I hate those photo loading times on the PS3! I didn't know Xbox was a lot faster. Can you find club races more easily?
