I'm sure it will look good when in motion (or when done).

Unfortunately, the only official answer I have at this time is this: Since these screenshots were not officially released by Turn 10 and Microsoft, I cannot confirm nor deny whether these are indeed real. Yeah I know, whiskey tango foxtrot.

Booooooo!!!!

Now, can everybody please chill out and try to enjoy their labor day weekend? Yay! Now onto other things...

Yaaaaaaaaay!!!

My take: Yes, they are real but they are from an old build. We'll release better ones from the latest build on Tuesday morning.

Just yesterday you were going on about how great RR7 looks.

You think anyone who has clicked on your post history takes your opinion seriously?

Dear God, I hope we don't get some pr bullshots. Just give us a realtime trailer already.

I think if he can't confirm/deny, that pretty much guarantees it's real. Maybe from an older build though judging by the comments

Edit: wait i see you already made that suggestion.

I agree.

jimbo · (09-02-2006, 03:29 AM)

I don't know if these are real or not, but to the people who said RR6, or even the new RR7 look better than these, wtf are you smoking? I mean honestly. I just got done playing RR6(awesome game btw, everyone should give it a spin), my wife and I put over 35 hours into the game and it looks nothing like these screens.

fo reals. or forza 1 for that matter (laughing my god damned ass off)

I'm so glad there's a thread or two like this per day on GAF where the fankidz jump on each other and predict next gen champions and turds based on single screen shots, PR speak, weekly or monthly sales data and analyst estimations. They're like retard bait, keeping the 'tards out of all the good threads.

BenjaminBirdie · (09-02-2006, 03:56 AM)

Am I the only one who gets zazzed whenever they talk about online functionality that they can't talk about yet? What are they building up there???

BamYouHaveAids · (09-02-2006, 04:05 AM)

This thread dissappoints. Where are the comparison shots to the CGI video?

I dunno. half the people bitching about these screenshots hated on the first game before it came out, if I recall some of the handles correctly. :)

Haha, no. It would get killed HARD. With Polyphony being the premier technical developer in the world(or at least among the top three) this would be totally inexcusable for GT next gen.

IJoel · 04:31 AM

Hahaha... can't confirm or deny? Jebus, wtf indeed. It seems that they are not fake, but they might not be authorized to be released. I just have to say again, wtf. Pity that Che couldn't resolve this properly.

sounds like it's resolved to me... who TF cares about the origin of these shots...wait 4 days til tuesday and then make a judgement based on official data... solved.

J-Rzez · (09-02-2006, 04:36 AM)

...they took that "dunno if we should do a GT style or Auto Modelista style, so lets do half realistic, half cartoonish look" approach again... this saddens me as a car nut...

Hope it's 60fps and they fine-tune the physics even more... and I hope these devs have a much better devised "mod-system" too with realistic yields in performance...

Oh, I didn't mean it as a dig to Che. He obviously has to answer to someone that doesn't want any info on the game out just yet (probably due to the magazine exclusive.) I'm just saying it's a pity he can't tell us more.

I'm really really hoping they are early build screens, and the new ones are significantly improved. Also, I hope it gets released this year, though I'm not holding my breath on that one.

Mr. Lemming · (09-02-2006, 04:51 AM)

The guy who can approve the release of promotional screenshots/information probably took an early Friday due to the holiday:(

Pimpwerx · (09-02-2006, 05:09 AM)

Looks meh, but let's give this game time. If this game is to be good, MS will let Turn10 take their time to get it right. It's done when it's done. The visuals look rather pants right now, but will no doubt improve by leaps and bounds. We know the game is still in progress, so I'm not worried. The target render looked the business, so whatever they're aiming for is well worth the wait.

This thread is like 90% backlash from some recent trends lately on this forum. Forza2 is just the unfortunate victim of that. This is the game to challenge GT. No one else has stepped up thus far, so I'm confident it'll be ready when it's time. Comparing to PGR3 is silly since this game is probably gonna be 60fps. Compared to Ridge Racer, this is already looking good with 12 cars. PEACE.

Right now, anything less than the best racing game ever is not good enough for PD. They're victims of their own success. PEACE.

so this means.............That these are the Forza 2 screens? If they are...........then I like PGR 3 better....

che, I'm afraid only movies will alleviate this situation.

Poor Che, seems the yahoos working Forza 2's marketing are not making his life easy. First they made him brake his promise of real media in August and now this.

:(

:(

GhaleonEB · (09-02-2006, 08:26 AM)

This has got to be frustrating for Che. Were he still with 1up he'd be on this side of the fence, wondering what the hell is up. Now that he's with MS, I suspect he's a little frustrated by the process.
