I'd rather have a new Project Gotham than a new Forza.

You're getting both in all likelihood.

 

[FordGTGuy]

I'm not into sim racers so personally I wouldn't know.


Dem headlights...

They are painted on like every stock car....

If you're going to troll at least think before you troll.

 

[Izick]

So does anyone actually think they'll go with some kind of connection requirement and a system wide block of used games? I know there are a lot of rumors about both, but between the Gamestop CEO's comments and the outrage to Adam Orth's comments, I just can't see MS going with either at this point. It might have been in the plans at some point, but neither benefits the consumer in anyway and would likely create a lot of enraged customers after launch who were uninformed about it prior to buying the console.

No to both. Optional, up to the publisher/developer for online connection requirement.

Yeah, PGR is more my kind of racer.

I wasn't claiming anything in a Forza vs GT sense lol, I don't even play either of those games. Just glad that next-gen we won't have to look at that.

Dem headlights...

If you're pointing out that they ate painted on, its because that's how stock car racing works. Just headlight decals.

Look at what?

Pretty sure we're going to continue seeing NASCAR stock cars in Forza and GT so we will continue to see painted on headlights...

 

[Izick]

Hopefully next-gen can fix real life stock-cars.

LOLOL

Wow!

NASCAR headlights will be 2D/painted on in every game for eternity....derp.

That's how they are in REAL LIFE.

Misunderstood your post sorry.

Yes, I just understood that now....

 

[Karak]

I also love how, whomever painted those, didn't even bother to get them on equally and squared. Its like a cross eyed dove.

Add me to the list of people who had NO idea they fucking painted them on.

You won't have to since you just said you don't play them. They will still be pasted on, stock cars don't have real lights.

 

[Four_Chamber]

Well, get used to seeing it in every game with stock cars.

 

[FordGTGuy]

Misunderstood your post sorry.

For the sake of comparison.

Ever wondered why every NASCAR track is completely lit up by track lights?

 

[Karak]

Guys ITS JUST STOCK CARS. Jezuz you take your stock cars all kinds of personal

For the sake of comparison.

But those are painted on correctly? Ha.

EDIT: Also...sweet fucking looking car.

The crowd that inhabits this thread is very touchy right now, we're like a bunch of thirsty guys in the middle of a desert waiting for rain.

 

[m23]

More Horizon, less driving in circles.

Hell no.

http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/gu1u0b/next-xbox-what-we-want-from-next-gen--forza

I really hope Turn10 introduces rally/f1. Rally was well done in Horizon and its really challenging. I recently got into watching F1 so including that into the next installment would be sweet.

 

[Bloodworth]

Maybe my memory just failed me, but I thought that even though Forza had some stock cars and oval tracks to scratch that itch, they didn't include NASCAR in any official way. (Maybe I'm just splitting hairs)

 

[Shaneus]

Split/Second.

Blackrock

Blur>Split/Second

Imagine if MS bought the rights to Blur from Activision, made Blur 2 a launch title for Durango?

There is no need to, there are quite a few oval tracks and the paint system basically allows for any stock car in existence to be in the game.

 

[Bloodworth]

This man speaks truth.

 

[Izick]

Forza Horizon was my favorite racing experience this generation. I wouldn't mind seeing another game like it sometime down the line.

Fair enough. My general point still stands though, plenty more racing styles that can be tapped into.

This man is right. Seeing another Forza from Playground would honestly be much more exciting.

It was definitely the best arcade racer this gen, well....that or NFS: Most Wanted 2005.

 

[danwarb]

Arcade style Sega Rally. Bring that back. PRR.

Easy right and so forth. That's my kind of racer.

 

[SatansReverence]

Not "officially" no but they did use the slightly outdated car models (well, slightly outdated for FM3 but very outdated for FM4) and have a couple tracks used in the Nascar season. They left it to the talented community to recreate current nascars with the livery editor.

 

[Bloodworth]

while expensive, horizon's rally dlc is fucking awesome. definitely check it out - especially if/when on sale

good to hear, I was wondering about it, but with the price and the release timing, I ended up not picking it up. Maybe I'll get to it soon.

thank u for the correction

Like V8 Supercars?

GT3

GT2

GT1

Le Mans Prototypes 1 & 2

SuperGT GT300 & GT500

HillClimb

GTS-R

German Touring

I'm not saying Forza couldn't use more racing series but at the same time I think people really underestimate what Forza offers in this area.

This man is right. Seeing another Forza from Playground would honestly be much more exciting.

Sadly you're just going to have to wait a year or two, on year is not enough time and they are definitely not showing a reveal this early.

 

[Arkham]

I saw a huge AC/Power truck drive by when I was walking around noon. Like a big 18-wheeler for AC.

Some internal mail was joking that only in the PNW do we need a huge truck to keep people dry and cool...

So even the tent has an external power supply?

OH BAAA-YAM NO I DIN'T!

Sorry. Had to.

 

[Shaneus]

Not that I have personally heard or read or anything no. I think mostly just information seeking. MS deserves a serious set of kudo's for their lockdown the last couple months. I just hope an ad agency doesn't fuck it up for them like has happened in the past. Or they don't accidentally post it online ha

STOP TEASING ME.

TBH, I only know because I thought it looked strange in the old NASCAR games

MS posts everything early. Everything. It's only ever a matter of knowing what URLs to check. I will be amazed if they manage not to spoil this

Yeah, I don't get why they can't prevent it by not actually having it wait to go out. It doesn't need to be up asap, it's fine going out a few hours after.

If it saves it from leaking it's worth it.

Scary to think PGR4 is 6 years old this year though!

Came out in 2007 and still looks better than any other racer on the 360. Some scenes look real in that trailer.

I just wish that the physics engine was more like PGR2.

 

[G17]

I love PGR but in terms of hours invested.. I easily put 10x more hours into Forza.

There is nothing quite like it on the Xbox.

Forza Motorsport 4 Intro

So good. Nothing better than narration by Jeremy Clarkson.

Not sure if posted but the latest Giant Bombcast has some speculation on the reveal event. Haven't listened yet though.

why can I not DD this game, makes no sense

Yeah, I went looking for it on Live the other day and was surprised it wasn't up there.
