Just go to the Forza vs GT thread.

"Thursday the 15th September, a demo for Forza 4 as a download for Xbox 360 is ready."

I hope this is true

I hope so since I will be up early waiting on Directv to come fix my satellite anyway. I will just have to tell Mr. Repair man to use the other TV to figure it out and not to bother me until he is done.

I'm putting zero faith in this. After reading the whole thing it's nothing but speculation. The same speculation that has kept the internet hype train a'rollin!

BUT the speculation has somewhat reliable info. TGS 2009 = FM3 Demo.
TGS 2011 = FM4 Demo?

A demo certainly would be nice. Gives us a snapshot of the game.

I'm sure damage isn't even mentioned in licensing agreements.

It is. There are certain things they doesn't allow. Passenger cell integrity must remain intact. Most of the time explosions are out of the question too. Rollovers are also hard to license but as more games license it, it's becoming "easier". And of course, cars must not be involved in any kind of "injury" crash, no driver going through the windshield, no people hit by the car, you get the point I think.

But still, most manufacturers allow lots of damage as long as these rules are followed.

Which makes the M6 shot above even weirder. There's a couple of other angles on my flickr where it looks way off intact. Maybe they sneaked it in.

Most likely it's a glitch in the damage generator, or this kind of slight deformation is allowed.
