btw, can I just say that I am dissapointed with the only choice of wheel with a clutch and 6 speed gearbox is the stupid looking porka wheel. I know it looks like the real thing, but i really like the current one tbh, couldn;t they have made it look slike areal racing car wheel rather than a road car wheel? Although I suppose thats not what Forza is about is it?

EDIT

Isn't it a bit of a contradiction when Audi and Xbox announce a partnership for the upcoming Forza 3...yet the official wheel is a porka wheel? I know they are the same company but a bit of continuity would be nice. Plus, all Audi wheel are amazing looking and feeling wheel Razz

Actually, if it coems out like this I will have zero complaints Razz

FIrstly, this wheel was announced in like, November last year, where have you been!

And, secondly, Porsche owns VW, which encompases Audi. VW and Audi own Lemborghini etc.

One of the reasons there isnt a Porsche LMP1.

Lovin the update to the main website Smile

by nickyf1 Mon 1 Jun 2009 - 22:07

Forza 2's main menus were really plasticy and lame, white makes a game feel much more quality when you play.

Forza 2 is great, but when I play it, it feels cheap in places.

FM3 Looks very apple.

October cannot come any sooner.

by HCR generaltso Mon 1 Jun 2009 - 23:05

not many details were given sadly but we saw damage, cars flipping will make races even more interesting...and more online racing options and the new ability to have HD movies being uploaded to xbox live.... what else should we reasonably expect?

more cars - announced
more tracks. - announced

i'm not expecting huge improvements on graphics since it still the 360...but weather/night and day stand out in my mind.

also some improvements in the paint booth would be nice...

by Pebb Mon 1 Jun 2009 - 23:21

I am unsure about the HD video upload feature, since the videos may not be that long.

its somewhere inbetween GT5P and Test Drive Unlimited graphics wise.

by **LMR DarthMario** Tue 2 Jun 2009 - 0:10

in all honesty nicky, TDU had Terrible graphics compared to either Fm2 or the GT series. ive racked up over 40,000 miles in TDU, and i can understand why the graphics were a bit shotty. mapping an entire island of Oahu can kill disc space, IMO

Any time I see that Montserrat track, I am reminded of the Top Gear episode where they took the Lambo, F430 and Aston Martin N24 in search of the best driving road in the world. I really hope that's a point to point track.

by nickyf1 Tue 2 Jun 2009 - 10:57

La Sarthe is to legendary Razz

Its like saying that San Luis in Argetina is better than Bathurst. It may be just as thrilling, but its sooo not.

Ohhh, I wonder if San Luis will be on the track list...
