Top Gear (uk) did Gran Turismo vs real life. and determined that drivers have more balls behind a controller than they do in a real car... But Mythbusters should do it anyway.
If the driver were to use identical controls for the game and real car it might work. But if they were to use a regular PS or 360 controller in game and a wheel and pedals in the real car, it wouldn't translate. It would be like expecting experience cooking to help you farm. Still dealing with food. But not the same thing.
I think that it was EGM that tested something similar to the video game driving thing. They got two pro FPS players and brought them to a shooting range to see if their skill in the game translted to skill in real life. It did not.
they tested it on top gear, jeremy clarkson got a similar time for most of the track on gran turismo & in real life in the same car & on the same track, except he just chickened out on the same corner every time. the difference between real life and video games. courage.
video game myths? does a video game teach a kid better driving then an actualy course? good, but.... I WANT A SEGMENT ON FIXING THE RED RING OF DEATH!!!

@DeltaPhi79 Try LFS with a G25. i do that. i think they are talking about a setup like that XD
I also played forza and GT5. Not that realistic. I so wanna see that happen. I will even work with them to make it happen :D
I wondered so many times if i could ectually race. It did learn me to drive a car though :)

Topgear actually did something like comparing videogames vs reality.
he set up a time i think it was on grand tourismo and tried to reach in reality.
Problem is not that in reality you are scared. He couldn't get close to the time. watch it, it is very funny.

i know, what they tested was similar, but not the quite the same. they were mainly testing how accurate the physics were.

I believe he has an inner ear condition. Hence he has issues diving as well as hearing.
