Gran Turismo developers Polyphony Digital stopped by to have a look at Turn 10's Forza Motorsport 3 display at last week's E3.
The news comes via Kotaku, reporting that Turn 10's official blog details the encounter.
"Perhaps the most surprising to me was when a couple of developers from Gran Turismo makers Polyphony Digital came by to personally get hands-on with Forza 3, all the while taking careful notes, examining our UI system, shooting photos, and directly asking us some pretty interesting questions. The reason I say I was personally surprised was because PD aren't generally known as a studio to acknowledge that there are racing games that exist beyond their own. Which could explain why the GT series has been so stagnant in the racing genre since GT3. So it seems competition is good for the consumer after all. I know for a fact that Turn 10 will never stop pushing racing games to the next level."
Hopefully, this news will cheer fans of both series, with proof that the GT series is looking at ways to improve, and that Forza 3 looks good enough that others are paying attention. The blog is certainly correct when it comes to competition being good, and from our brief experience, it looks like they're right about Turn 10 pushing racing games further and further. Keep an eye out for our Forza Motorsport 3 hands-on later this week.
