I think the overall feel is a lot better, might be the controller though. I usually play with the standard controllers not the steering wheel. but when it comes to drifting, for me at least, forza is a lot easier. I feel the back end kick out a lot better playing forza. And when you're learning how to play the progressive driving line really helps in learning when you can give more power or when you're going too fast. Just having the blinking light and brake zones marked in GT5 isn't as good
One of my biggest pet peeves is how cars feel in GT5 if they are standard vs premium, the standard cars just feel numb and like you're playing something from 5 years ago. And I love how they claim to have so many different models of cars when it's more like 50 models of skylines, 50 civics, 50 fairladys etc. whereas forza seems to have a more diverse range of cars.
As I've already stated the tuning in forza is just spectacular and you can also turn on the physics to see how your suspension, tire heat, g forces, etc. work. Engine swaps/drivetrain swaps are really cool too. One benefit in GT5 is that you can mod a ferrari 458 for the same amount of money as modding an EK civic, unrealistic but helps if you don't play that much. I'm also not a fan of how the A-spec races are pretty much the same as the ones from 5-10 years ago, whereas with forza you get more interesting races ie. Honda, hatchbacks, suv, executive cars, supra vs skyline.
I haven't played forza 3 on a steering wheel yet but I have played forza 2 on the microsoft one and it wasn't that great. I play GT5 regularly on the DFGT and feel that it does enhance the experience.
