Forza 3... Who's Getting It?

Pre-ordered the game and the Fanatec Turbo S Clubsport wheel. This fall is going to be amazing.
 
Metro you know you get the game with the wheel if you ordered before the tenth? So you don´t get two copies.
 
There's a couple new photo galleries up on the official Forza website. Well the JDM Power one is from yesterday, and the Le Mans one is a couple weeks old, but I don't think it was ever posted here:

looks nice, gives an insight on the variety of cars expected to be in the game.
However, ive noticed that the drivers are missing in some of the photos-is-f,versa, etc.
Does this mean that we're able to take out the drivers in photo mode?

I was wondering about that as well, but I'm not sure if they've come out and given any sort of details about it.
 
Day 1.

This is getting pre-ordered so the wife can't complain. "I paid for this months ago, neiner!"
 
Wow I admit I've been on GT5's nuts when it comes to graphical capabilities but these newly released screens are blowing me away.

It's time for war now. Forza 3 is no joke when it comes to graphics.

Hey I'm not trying to start a war in here, I'm just saying it's war between Turn 10 and Polyphony Digital, which is a very good thing. Maybe it will get PD to actually release the damn thing before 2010.

I like when game companies push the shit out of each other, and as consumer we can buy both and win :D

The rain looks good. Although I don't see enough puddles on the track.

Nice lighting. Better than GT5 I think.

It's all a joke, photochops from the forza forum. Maybe they'll try again in Forza 4 ? ;)

based on your posts, we know you're a corporate shill. some of us play more than one game on one system, why don't you piss off instead of coming into a thread just to shit on a game for no reason? do you call yourself a gamer? do you play games actually or just do free public relations for sony?
 
I can't wait for Forza 3, I'll be getting it day 1. The only question is whether I get the Fanatec wheel for use with both consoles, or just settle for my MS Wireless one and pick up a cheaper wheel for my PS3.
 
For some reason racing games have no appeal to me like they use to.I remember playing tokyo extreme racer on ps2 all night long,I just cannot do that on the 360 for some reason.

I tried forza 2 and yeah it was cool but it sucked as it had no real challenge to it.I want to see a new tokyo extreme racer game come out on the 360 with the current gen graphics.I dont even care if the cars are named N-12sds01

Got stress ball?
 
I'll be getting it................................................










































































.............8 months after it's out for $35. No way in hell am I going to be paying $68 (taxes) for a video game, I don't care how much money I make. I like how the US economy sucks right now but they keep jacking up the prices.

What prices do they "keep jacking up"? Games have been 60 bucks new this entire gen, since 2005 more or less. And of course adjusted for inflation they are cheaper than they've been in history.

Other than that, I agree that waiting even a few weeks you can always find sweet deals. Early adopters always get boned
 
I reckon I might go for the collectors edition on this. I'm just a sucker for collectors editions. :D

Here in Australia its pretty common to have new release specials on games for 10 to 20%. So getting them at release is usually cheaper than getting them a few weeks later. Its more like a few months later before they drop below their release price, or around june (end of financial year sales) and december (end of year sales).

No rain, rallying or night racing, and only 8 cars.

8 cars? ***? that si bloody terrible. that can be a deal breaker for me.

what the hell is wrong with these guys? 8 players in a racing game = fail.

if you want to create a simulater, one place to look at is the racing grid count! when have you ever watched a real race with 8 cars on the starting grid?

Is xbox live really that limited in terms of network code? Most xbox games have low player count whilst the PS3 can handle a large number of player count lag free!

im not making this thread into a 360 vs ps3 but its soo blatent that the xbox live network is rubbish when it comes to actual online MP.

I mean come on, why do most 360 games still use P2P????????

Guess i will stick with gtr evo and rfactor for a proper true racing experience online and hope and wait for GT5 to come out as i can at least expect 16 player racing just like GT5p.

terrible to have 8 players. gutted and a posisble deal breaker for me:thumbsdow:mad:
 
What an utterly stupid comment. The 8 players aspect has nothing to do with network code.

God, I don't even know why I'm responding.
 
nothing? it does have something to do with network coding. if forza 3 can only push 8 players online its because of their network code being shit and there game cant optimize and run more than 8 cars on screen.
 
The thing is, how many duals will you have on a typical 30min race with 8 cars on a decent sized F1 track? hardly any mate but if you have more cars on the grid, there is a better chance of some nice dual going on during the whole entire race just like on a real race you watch on tv. constantly on your toes throughout the race with a proper 20 player grid but in a 8 player grid, the cars begin to spread out dramaticly in the 2nd or 3rd lap of a race and you end up with people who just cant be asked chasing someone who is miles away and ends up pissing about in the race by driving backwards or something.

yes i have seen it done 100 times in forza 2. terrible

Yeah, absolutely nothing. Your post is laughable. If it's got to do with PSN vs XBL then why does need for speed shift have 16 cars on screen on both consoles? What's more, you go on about dedicated servers without realising that GT5:p (the game you mention) doesn't even use them. That's of course ignoring the fact that out of all the games this gen, less than 20 have dedicated servers on the PS3... making your "most 360 games use P2P" comment a joke too.

Get a clue.

You want to turn this into a fanboy war (lets face it, it's the only reason you posted), then go with something like "It's clear the 360 isn't powerful enough to render 16 cars on screen. Forzalol".
 
Of course it´s harder to maintain a 16 car race in multiplayer versus just 8 cars... more cars more information to push and if the bandwidth is not enough you get more lag and more disconnections. It´s not the only reason you also have the memory constrictions to think about. I doubt either PD or Turn 10 dare to sacrifice image quality for more cars on screen. Since it´s easier to sell games based on graphics rather then real features :(

It´s quite hard to host 64 car endurance races even in games with such excellent multiplayer code like rFactor :)
