Forza 4 Announced (read the first post - no GT vs FM comparisons)

Why do i get the feeling that its top gear US that being part of the game and not Top gear UK..


they were showing footage from the show too in the trailer.....
 
Let's hope this turns out good and isn't some measly update based around kinect functionality....

The did a lot right in FM3, now they just go fix the stuff they did wrong... if not... that's gonna cement some really negative feelings in the direction t10 is going...

Wonder if the Top Gear tie in will be good... please please please do it right...
 
The did a lot right in FM3

Well, for me personally it's hard to point a single thing in FM3 which is better than second (except graphics probably).

Too much focus on accessibility and making game unaccessible to everybody without gold account and internet
 
All the bickering is stupid. I play both Forza and GT and enjoy both. In fact it's better for all of us if Forza 4 is better than GT5 it just makes GT work harder just like GT5 will put pressure on Forza. In the end we the gamers win with better products!

Forza will never make GT better. Just look at GT5
 
I'm thinking Forza 4 will outdo GT5. From the brief teaser we can gather that there will be day/night, which I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess is available on all tracks. Also there's rally which was a big thing GT had that Forza didn't. Then there's the fact that it seems you can open doors, hoods, etc. to get an in-depth look at your cars. Is this for all cars? My guess is yes.

My biggest questions at the moment are car count, track count, how many cars per race and if there's weather.

Forza may dethrone GT as my favorite racing series if the answers to those questions are satisfying. Of course I'll still love and play GT for its meticulous attention to detail and its fantasy courses which put Forza's to shame.
 
Any ideas what this is?

Oh god on god please give us G25/27 support for this! Where do I start a petition?

This is the sole reason I haven't bought an Xbox 360. I've been wanting to buy one for the past 3 years since Forza 2 came out but with no G25 support it'd be a waste of money for me.

But, I dont see it ever getting support. I'm sure it could be done with some adapter made by Logitech, but MS dont want it and Logitech need the license before they can do it. Which isn't going to happen while MS are only supporting Fanatec.
 
No that's later than 50. More like late 60. They didn't use tires like that in the 50's. The whole car is flat as well. Looks like there's a spoiler in the back.
 
Now I know this might be a radical idea guys, but how about in a Forza 4 thread we try and avoid needless mentions and comparisons to GT5 (or any other GT for that matter).

Take this as kind of a very firm suggestion, because this is a valid topic for discussion and one I have a personal interest in, however I don't want to have to lock it because some members can't help but flame-bait (and that's on both sides).

Yes, please. :D 👍

Can't make out too much other than a Zonda of some kind, what looked like an LP550-2, night-time racing (?), and rally.

Could be just random footage thrown together though, so, who knows.

I swear I heard some Formula or IRL engines screaming in there too.

T10 really dropped the ball on the last game.

Gotta love random opinions. :lol:

The trailer was bloddy arcadey

You see a different trailer than the rest of us? I saw more simulation than ever.

but is this proper game or Kinect garbage ?

While Kinect is a awesome accessory, it's not for Forza 4. Forza 4 is still retaining the classic wheel and controller controls. Kinect is only an add-on option for Forza 4.

Not too much hopes after complete failure called Forza 3.

Well, if you found Forza 3 a complete failure, then you should avoid Forza 4 at all costs.

Its Forza 4 or Forza: GT Edition ?! :D
TopGear , Dirt & Snow tracks , Day/Night cycle , ...
They arent in any Forza but after GT5 ...

Kinda like there isn't any physical damage, mechanical damage, cockpits/interiors, underbody, online, etc in any GT but after Forza 3?

Hopefully this game won't be that good

Most real gamers want the best out of games, and always hope we get the best games possible. It's a win win. You might be the first person I have actually heard that they want a game to actually be bad.

Well, for me personally it's hard to point a single thing in FM3 which is better than second (except graphics probably).

Other than the loss of pit simulation, Forza 3 pretty much stomps all over the previous Forza's in every area, especially simulation physics and gameplay (most important part of a sim).

FM3 is already on top for me. I assume FM4 can only go up.

Wow could have sworn I said this on a few posts ago......

I agree. But there are a lot of Top Gear fans (a lot of whom who don't even care for cars) for whom the Top Gear tie-in will be a selling point.

Anyways, hopefully this additional competition will get Kaz to make GT5 even better via patches and (free) DLC.

It will take Kaz a lot more than a year to bring GT5 up to 2008 standards.
 
That game could be NFS trailer and I would never know. GT has class ;)



But it will be intresting to see if Forza is any good and competition is always nice


Oh yeah GT5has so much class releasing a half finished product with 200 cars but advertising it with 1000.... you fanboys buy everything don't ya?
 
Is there any point to you posting here other than to start yet another meaningless fanboy brigade?

The trailer looked "arcadey" (whatever the hell that means) okay, fine. Move on...and stop polluting the thread with useless dribble.

It's called jealousy.
 
Daddybird, it's been made clear we're not to discuss GT5 in here. So unless you're trying to get banned, you should probably stop. ;)

Forza 4's looking like it could be one hell of a game though. I just hope Kinect isn't too big a part of it, because I'm not a fan.
