Kaz Yamauchi, creator of the Gran Turismo series has commented that rival game Forza Motorsport 2 for the Xbox 360 is far ahead of GT5 in terms of features. He then goes on to say that while Forza wins in terms of features, GT5 is more focused on core values and setting the highest standard possible. Here is his response to the question:

Kikizo: Could you give us your opinion on Forza MotorSport 2 for the Xbox 360, and in particular, the ability to reskin your car in very great detail - are you going to have this degree of superficial car customisation in GT5?

Yamauchi: Straight off the bat, I think that in terms of feature sets, Forza is ahead of us. They have more options, you can do basically anything. We take a different approach obviously - we try to concentrate on what are the core values for a racing game, and we try to elevate those standards up as high as we possibly can. I am having difficulty trying to explain the differences, but one way you can look at it is, you can buy a watch that is super multifunctional, but economical, or a watch that is reduced in functions, but premium - higher end.
