Forza Motorsport 4

[StevenRB45]

Its out next Friday, Demo is out now...looking like its gonna run GT closer than ever, they've got rid of the bright cartoon textures off it.

Cannot wait, now featuring top gear test track and the kia cee'd...and a whole host of other small crap but potentially fun cars (download the demo do the rivals challenge in the M5 there are loads of new sub supermini class cars running around)

Oooh, nice one - I need to check out the demo

Have they improved the handling? I liked Forza 2 but I felt like there was not connection between the car and track in 3 and all cars felt pretty much the same.

 

[StevenRB45]

Download the demo tbh...

I never had those issues with FM3 so best to try for yourself

 

[Venters]

Played the demo now. Woof, I thought Forza 3 was about as good as it was gonna get on the 360 but I was wrong.

 

[StevenRB45]

Just listen...

 

[Eklipze3k]

Don't let that guy drive a real car, bouncing off the limiter like that - does sound good though

 

[maddogmorg]

Impressive sounds Probably the best of any game i've encountered.. But then from one video you can't always tell.

Ferrari F40 sounds pretty awesome too


They say they've redone all the sounds on the game from thr ground up...we'll see when it ships but its already 10x better than GT sound wise that and apparently the engine sounds now change as you modify the cars which wasn't in FM3

Wow I have to get that! To think I was thinking about selling the xbox!

 

[jip0]

i saw the advert yesterday looks awesome

any news on the kinnect support?

 

[StevenRB45]

Well you can drive with kinect by holding out your hands and feet and pretending to drive....I'd rather set my xbox on fire than do that but its possible..

If you want to preserve your dignity you can play as usual but use the kinect sensor for head tracking while in cockpit view so if you move you head slightly to the right or left you can look around, for example at the apex of an upcoming corner or check your mirrors.

And finally you can use it to look around the cars in auto vista mode and give some voice commands etc.

 

[Venters]

Look a Fiat!

 

[herpsuk]

Just got it in the post. Cant wait to play later

Were you attempting to buy oranges?

 

[maddogmorg]

Excellent car list, and excellent sounds, but the graphics seem a bit 'gamey' coming from another console racing sim...

Will have to find someone i know with an xbox and this game, not sure they're into car games though.

 

[Nathan126]

Very interesting
Can't wait.

Have they lost the rights to use Porsche?

Saab is also gone...and only 1 car under fiat...
