I would but it seems like not many people had that interest in contributing for a long time to keep the thread alivebrotkasten said:Well, part of Forza-Age is Car-Age. Of course some of us have good taste.Now go back and revive your car porn thread, pls.

Today it can be easy to justify not having any info about the cars because anyone can google it, but I like one reviewer's comment about how the career system in FM3 made him fall in love with a car he had no idea he liked. I watched the NSX video as well and because I'm a bit of a Honda fan I knew stuff about the VTEC and its purpose, but I had no idea how to spot a Diablo SV because I'm not a big Lambo fan.Shaneus said:This one was my favourite
I just love the presentation of the first few NFS games, though... I don't know whether they influenced anyone at Turn 10, but it does feel like it. Watch that video from the start to see what I mean.
Thing I'm worried about is that the visual fidelity is probably going to be under more scrutiny than any other game and will probably overshadow the rest of the features being implemented. When it comes down to it, even if it looks only marginally better in-game if they nail the rest of the advertised features, I'll be over the moon.Slayer-33 said:
Exactly. Rather than just dropping a player into a game but wrapping it in an informative yet enthralling experience is what the games you mentioned did well and it's what I love about them. Not only am I playing a game but I'm learning at the same time (without it being boring). Not wanting to troll but T10 seem to get that... PD don't (thinking that it'll make the experience less "pure", I guess).Ty4on said:Today it can be easy to justify not having any info about the cars because anyone can google it, but I like one reviewer's comment about how the career system in FM3 made him fall in love with a car he had no idea he liked.

Might sound a bit like Dan's "Turn gamers into car lovers", but I really like how early NFS, Forza 3 and now 4 broaden the love for cars. Who here would know about the GT90, Indigo, Nazca C2, that PGR4 car if they hadn't seen them in the game and even if you'd known about it would you know how kick ass it was on the track or had stuff like quad turbo?
Yes I know the only driving GT90 was ass on the track
I'm worried that the single player is going to be very boring. I love painting though and will probably dump a ton of hours into that. I'm really hoping some of the stuff they're holding back includes livery stuff but I've never finished any Forza SP so any work they can do to make that more fun would be more appreciated than any visual stuff they do imo.Shaneus said:
IMO i think the first forza was the best, at the time the physics were the best on console (some may argue enthusia was) the graphics and sounds were very good, it had night driving and of course drivatar, the point to point races which were amazing and imo the most fun single player of the lot. forza 2 was very good too but i felt a lot of stuff was left out..such as cockpits and overall the game was pretty damn ugly graphically. but it had better online, auction house and much better painting tools, tbh i loved forza 2. forza 3 was the most disappointing to me as i felt they spent too much time on community things such as storefront and the whole painting scene and not enough time on the actual racing and single player. forza 3s single player was the only one i never beat because it was agonisingly boring. they just had extremely long races for the hell of it and the drag races were the most pointless things ever. i didnt like how there was a permanent steering assist and how some RWD cars were very hard to oversteer in, such as the e36 M3, which i have driven in real life and nearly span out on my first corner..try and oversteer in it on forza 3 around a corner, almost impossible. if you havent already you really should play forza 1, it has a lot of features that are missing in even forza 3elohel said:

the question is, would she let you?Slayer-33 said:

Yes, it was, they jazzed it up quite a bit in 2, scenery wise, and added a slew of small ribbons. I know a ton of people didn't care for Blue Mountains, but that and Alpine Ring were my favorites. Just loved the skybox on Blue Mtns.Xanadu said:
So, in the 'man vs machine' lap, we see a lot of bouncing around, a lot of up and down in the camera view. God, I really,really hope that Turn 10 have recreated this sensation via track anomalies such as the changes in surfaces, dips and bumps..etc. I know it's been already confirmed (not by t 10) that this is actually the case,but still, it's something that has really bothered me now for quite some time.shinnn said:

Those were the good old crazy days. It was an awesome spectacle no matter which way you look at it.Duallusion said:
Thanks. The AE86/MR2 engine swap makes sense on paper so I'm guessing it will be allowed in FM4.commedieu said:
You know what would be better than replacing an aspirated engine with another NA motor?mclaren777 said:
Nobody said they should promote it. They showed a teaser of Reach, after the ODST demo, for example.sneaky77 said:

GT5's rally showcased some neat graphical effects though... the smoke/dust effects with tree shadows casting on them and being lit by the rear lights at night was AWESOME.op_ivy said:as a HUGE fan of rally i'd kill to see it in forza but i do see your point - its a tough thing to nail unless thats your focus (sorry GT fans, but the rally has always been pretty weak). however, i dont expect to see it in forza anytime soon.
what i am hoping for that will feed my need is more technical, tight and twisty, road courses ala positano. so god damned good, i really hope forza has at least a couple more similar style locations. glad to see the leon supercup return too, maybe i can set a few more top 100 times with a stock vehicle
