Im confused surely they would of all been removed then or asked to be removed. :/

Seems strange when Che said himself that preview copies are going out to different sites expect to see more videos, reviews etc coming soon.

New pitpass is up
http://forzamotorsport.net/news/pitpassreports/pit...

Demo... maybe by the end of next week at the earliest from what I read...

Quote:
Well, in regards to the Forza 2 demo. I still don't have an answer. As of today's emails, the demo was still in the hands of our certification dept. They're expediting it through the process but it's not out of the woods yet. We should have a firm idea when you can expect the demo by early next week. Basically, once it passes cert, throwing it up on Marketplace shouldn't take more than a couple days. Of course, being a Microsoft n00b, none of you should take my conjecture as gospel, but I'm doing my best here to give you an honest answer. I want y'all to play the demo just as much as you do -- if nothing else, it'll give the forums something else to talk about. Also, once the demo releases, I'll see if we can do some fun little hotlap contests for some no-prizes. Please be patient. The demo is coming 'round the bend. So close I can almost smell the burnt rubber.

2007-05-05 07:25:38

I seriously can't wait to get my hands on this damn demo I want it I want it I want it.

I wasn't going to buy the steering wheel, but now it's pretty much a must have for me.

Wishlist: PGR4 with a FF wheel, 2K Legends Football, and Halo 3 with an XFPS controller. And I can dream that Halo Wars will be a Battlezone PC clone...

NY looks awful man, it's hard to believe they are not using the same buildings as in FM1 but in slightly higher res. After seeing such amazing looking city in PGR3, going to that is going to be harsh.

The sound is unbelievable though, really impressive sounds, I love that.

2007-05-05 23:13:16

Well, I'd say PGR3's engine is really good at rendering cities, but the nurburgring looks like crap (no 2/3d grass, so the side of the road looks like crap !).
Besides, FM2 is a sim running at 60 fps with an awesome 360Hz physics engine, so gameplay is the most important thing, and according to blim or 1up, FM2 rules.
As a graphics whore, I would have appreciated some compromises regarding gameplay...

Well whenever they get around to making 3, I just hope they take thier time on it. But they need to get the circuit tracks they are missing from the first game in 2 before they start working on 3.

New video and screens Laguna Seca

http://www.xboxfront.de/news-945-6953-Forza_Motors...

Better off downloading video then watching the youtube version saying that not bad but i felt the driver got annoyed when he went abit to fast into last corners. Also very nice sound coming from the Pagani Zonda bring on the demo.

oh and one last thing looks like the message of no more videos did not make it to xboxfront.de

Yeah, and that sucks. But I see why Blim doesn't even want to try, if publishers aren't backing up Xboxyde as much as they SHOULD, I see why Blim doesn't want any sort of problem at this time.

Thanks for the link.

The replays are simply awful once again. I hate the fact that I'm seeing many of the exact same crappy angles from Forza 1's Laguna Seca.........wow, I thought they had teamed up with BC for Forza TV? Did they ever think of doing some functional replays with a bit more realistic camera angles? Just when you think they have a nice angle, it changes right back to that camera about half a meter from touching the car where you can see the absolutely low res liveries......Also, the difference in AA is clearly visible.

I especially hate those textures to the left, what the hell is that?

This game looks "acceptable" but whoa......it's right there at the limits. Did MS fund this game? Was it considered "low budget"? I guess IGN wasn't kidding when they said the environments are "functional" and nothing beyond that.
