Though Turn 10 Studios’ Forza Motorsport 5 was scrutinized heavily on its release, both in terms of its visuals and gameplay features, there’s no denying that the game looks amazing. A Reddit user recently took part in an Indy 500 Mini Marathon and compared the quality of the track’s texture with textures from Forza 5. Check it out above.

These aren’t meant to be the same track, side by side, but when you look at the detail of the gravel in real life and contrast it to the in-depth textures of the virtual track, the level of detail is just plain amazing. You could be picky and say the Xbox One is still incapable of perfectly mimicking real life but for a launch title, it’s a great start.

What does the future hold for Forza Motorsport? We’ll find out at E3 2014 when Microsoft holds its media briefing so stay tuned for further details on the same. In the meantime, let us know what you think of the detail in Forza 5.
