Haven't tried the latest GT5 so I can't say, but without a real wheel/seat combo then Forza is not very realistic. It's realistic for a video game, but not so much as an actual sim. The real issue is the proper equipment is expensive, but if you've got the funds for the equipment then the games and consoles are cheap in comparison. You could run all three with three different consoles for less than the cost of a starter sim racer. Sim experience stage 1 kits start at 2k and go up to 18k, but they are used by a number of racing teams. They are bad a**. So if funds aren't an issue you have an excellent realistic track experience without being there.
