This new Token system is just further development on that foundations, by initial problem is something that really buggers me.

For instance, I have ordered a LCE Edition and I will be getting like 20+ cars as a bonus. From FM3 experience, I will have to purchase them all with in-game currency before actually *having* them. And yes, that is pretty much crazy.

Didn't they said that we can now pick what prize we want for our level up? And yes, totally agree about how over prices those cars are in Forza 3. For someone who doesn't have the time to make stuff to sell on auction house you are pretty much have to grind to get those cars. I mean I understand they want to make those rare cars hard to get and rare but I think they just went overboard.

In game tokens are just a short cut. You dont have to use them. But the idea of spending real world money unlocking in-game items really grates with me. Its all the stuff that I hate about EA's sports games. I thought Dan was better than that.

One thing worth keeping in mind is that it's gamers who have created demand for such transactions, not "greedy companies". Real money grey markets for in-game items and characters have been integral parts of some online communities for years now (not necessarily all, I have no idea whether there have been such occurrences in the Forza community, but with any popular online game with any sort of unlocks or progression it's only a matter of time). Some people would rather pay money to get an in-game item, be it a sword, a gun or a car, than work for it. Those things won't go away, you can only fight them to a certain extent, so what companies are doing is simply cutting the middle man and taking the money themselves. But again, it's gamers who have created that demand - maybe not people like you and me, but gamers.

So, we are losing 25 ribbons. But gaining how many?


Oh, and trying to remember how many ribbons we were losing, I came across a LOT of posts from pre forza3 release all sure of the regular track DLC we were going to see. I still firmly believe that we will see no more than two track DLC, with one of them being a missing old track (Bugatti or Positano).

I've been here for a while, I just don't post very often anymore, especially in the gaming section. To tell you the truth, I haven't really been into gaming for months now, but' it'll come back. It always does.

i think the Top Gear crew has a lot to do with it.

i believe they are the ones who filmed and edited the video; classic Top Gear cinematography.

My God this video is scary. Shift who ?
My neighbours won't be happy

Holy shit at the sound!
I will bring my house down through these sounds..

That's exactly what FM needed. Some slight 'speed effects' to add to the immersion and it seems that it's spot on. It does look scarier at high speeds than in FM3. Well done.
I'm excited.

My work completely block anything with you-tube even on our hospital guest wi-fi. I can't get 3g signal where I am so when I go to lunch I am going to see if I can watch it on my windows phone browser.

I think these guys post all the reaction just to taunt those of us that can't watch it atm.

Notice how the embargo is like a whole 3 weeks before release, :p this level of confidence in your product is always good.
