Back with more info about Forza...

If you're an ign insider, you can grab a super hi-res video of Forza that looks absolutely amazing in my opinion...it's under masterbit theatre (why I have no clue), but you should definitely check it out if you have any interest in Forza.

Also for those who don't have insider, here's a link to the bittorrent download:

Video is in 4 sections:

First section is a Chrysler ME Four Twelve (the 850bhp super car) going around a huge oval stadium-like track.

Second section is a bunch of LeMans racers duking it out on Laguna Seca

Third section is a Aston Martin (Vanquish I think) on a foresty course

Last section is a Racing Corvette on a New York course

I'll see if I can take some small video clips or at least screenshots to give you guys a glimpse of it.

Thanks for your welcome :) I do what I can!

Workin on the video, but it'll probably be a little while...for now here's some screenshots I took to tide you over (doesn't really do justice to the actual video though), the reason they're a bit blurry is because I stretched the video to fullscreen.

Section 1

Section 2

Section 3

Section 4

Sorry everyone about the tracker not working...its beyond my control :(

On the upside, here's a couple of clips from the video that I stiched together:

If the bandwidth runs out, I can upload it again, just let me know.

Edit: The tracker appears to be working for me now...maybe try it again?

The frame rate and lighting of the Chrysler ME412 clip is insane. :Q

Without something like a Driving Force Pro it can't compete with GT4 regardless of other aspects. I have a driving force pro and a seat out of an altima in my bedroom for GT4 and I can never use a regular controller again. If you know someone with GT4 and a DFP you should give it a try. It's a lot of fun. Way more engrossing.

getbush, my roommate has GT4, so I've been playing that a bunch, but unfortunately he doesn't have the wheel...maybe someday :)

Forza has a Fanatec wheel that they designed for it, probably not quite as good as the DFP, but we'll see how it fares when it comes out.

after seeing the vid.. the gameplay action looks just like TOCA Race Driver 2... so I hope the car customization and everything else makes it more fun on top of it. Nice visuals though.

To those who think the game seems boring or what not, it's a matter of taste I suppose, it's not like NFS:U or even PGR, it's a sim racer, more like GT4, which I guess could be considered "boring" by some.

The customization also has me excited, you can basically paint your car however you want, put on different body kits, change rims, tint windows, etc.

Wow I sound like a walking advertisement...

But yeah, I guess bottom line, this game is not for everyone, but it looks great for what it is!

lemme guess-

You either play ONLY WOW, or CS.

Am I right???

Really, This game looks awesome-

No, certainly not CS, the wait times between death and a new round would be too much for him I'm sure.
