the game looks amazing :p


I know you like it but I'm saying the game makes me like the car for some reason just because of how it looks in it lol.. Dat shine son.

Can't imagine til I see the 350Z modded ;) that's my dream car.
 
These pics are unbelievable! All this new media really makes the wait that much harder for me.

I wonder if the matte wheels are an option just for the rims, or if there actually is a matte paint option.

It's almost unbelievable that this shit is on the same hardware.
yes but lets be honest forza 2 looked like crap when it came out

plus the compression on that picture is horrifying, even worse than i remembered

Heres FM 2 for reference lol.

slayer that is a bad photo of a bad livery

F2 looked very good, and given the time frame and what it brought to the table, beyond excellent for my tastes.

Still, F2->F4 is a nice evolution process.

Those pics are insane although I can't help but feel if they are using cardboard crowds then better to leave them out.
Are there any escort cosworth photomode shots?
Thanks.

er... 2d crowds already exists in Forza 3.. they swap 2d/3d when the car/camera is too far.

Gears 3 and Forza 4 are pretty much destroying all preconceptions I had of what the 360 can do. God. Damn.


Just got finished with Gears 3 yesterday and I completely agree with you.

gears 3 looks great but i noticed theres more aliasing than on 2 which is annoying

Thanks, and honestly it doesn't surprise me. :)

But there's just something about muscle cars that draws me in.
I love muscle cars too, but the Mustang II didn't have a lot of muscle, and the King Cobra was mostly a trim package.

These shots are incredible. Wish I could just wake up in two weeks.

I know it is a small thing, but this has seriously made my day. I love messing around with the contrast of matte/gloss and I am going to enjoy working with the possibilities in the paint editor.

Plus we will have some legit looking dry carbon vinyls now.
 
My body is ready

Can't wait to dust off the old MS wheel that I brought with me when I moved from NY to Texas. This game was the sole reason I wasted space in my car on the trek down LOL

The lighting in that Top Gear homespace is freaking bang on. Unbelievable :eek:
Seriously this. It really is the best environment to show off IBL, with so many sources of light bouncing off the car, especially from the chequer plate floor....so freakin amazing :O

I'm going to buy another xbox for this game, my current 360 randomly ejects games and scratches them up. I have a Fanatec G2 wheel that is just sitting around since my ps3 died, can't wait.

Where are these shots coming from? Are these people that have review copies etc? Is this the quality of the shots that we normal users will be able to get out of the game? Some of these shots are just amazing.

This looks real.

The demo better have this TG environment with one of the available cars...I want to see this in real time!

That place and my car of choice makes it the ultimate screensaver.

I am only praying that they use better AA in the game. I hate jaggies..


Please please please....
Watched some of the vids out there and checked for this. Hard to tell with the compression but it looks like how it was in FM3 which to me was acceptable but could be better.

60 fps makes it more bearable. It's like how Call of Duty is pretty jaggy but looks decent in motion.

I tried to see how the texture filtering was but the vids were of average quality so it's hard to tell. That is another thing that racers have to do well.

That subaru pic is too much compressed. Imgur sucks.

Didn't realize that! Wow T10 really did a 180 here. Or should we say MS cheapskates who didn't want to pay for bandwidth.

With the embargo up we aren't hearing much of the game.

Details on the online would be nice. Answers to small questions like customizable controls or FOV would be appreciated.

So are these pre-made or in-house liveries given to reviewers, or have reviewers made the bulk of these?
There are community VIPs that have the game as well. I'm assuming that a large portion of them are using imported groups from F3
