I have not seen this confirmed anywhere.
Another member admitting to guessing this because of it's Easter egg status.

Have you got a confirmed source?

Well it's not in the Bentley Car selection screens from that german website, and it was confirmed to be an Autovista only car alongside the Warthog a while back.

That pretty much settles it then.

Thanks.

Photo-realistic. No other word for it.

Thanks alot Hotspitta, I just bought these pair of drawers :(
 
What's the excuse for not being able to drive the Bentley?

Just for reference the Warthog was made unavailable to drive because they said they couldn't replicate its complex suspension plus the futuristic tyres which is fair enough.

But the Bentley?

I'd like to point out that the "issue" with the grey exhaust tips isn't appearing in that picture, either.

They probably couldn't put it on a dyno and record the sound. I know I'd be against that if it was my Bentley we're talking about.
 
Maybe it was too expensive to borrow to get the sounds they needed?

Well, no, that wouldnt matter, because they must have borrowed it because how else would you be able to turn it on in AV?

Review: Turn 10 Studio has outdone itself with Forza Motorsport 4, arguably the best and most complete racing game ever made.

If you ever find yourself trapped on a deserted island, with nary a soul in sight but a nice couch, TV and an Xbox 360, in this slightly unlikely situation, Forza 4 may be the best game you could possibly have. While the deserted island scenario might be more palatable, realistically speaking if you (like the other 99-percent of us) are on a budget, then you simply won’t find a game with more value than Forza 4. It’s insane how much this game has to offer, and it’s compounded by the wacky notion that everything it does, it does well. No, scratch that—it does it excellently.

There is enough to do in this game to make a lifetime prison sentence seem like a good deal if you want to go for 100-percent completion. Throw in the ever changing online challenges and competitive modes, and this game could in theory outlast the sun."

Man the hype-train is set to WARP 10. lol. Game better live up to expectations because man-o-man I can see the haters in the shadows now ready to pounce on a wheel spoke being too thin.

Hate to put a downer on this review but this guy might be talking out his ass. He says....
"The track listings are also incredible, and just when you think you’ve seen everything the tracks can offer, an entirely new type of track will emerge. Getting very, very picky, you can’t hit a switch and make the track night, and the weather selections are limited, but with dozens of courses, including night and wet tracks, there is more than enough to do. It should even offer plenty for the people that dedicated hours and weeks of their lives at the altar of Forza 3."

Unless the retail version has one helluva surprise for us I don't recall any of this coming to Forza 4. Hype-train is starting to wobble on the tracks here. Somebody better get the engineer before we get a derailment here.
 
So, one more piece of evidence in the "video game reviewers don't know what the 🤬 they are talking about" case. Getting a rather good amount of that, makes me wonder if they even go past the intro scene sometimes and just base the rest on the summary and manual.:lol:

Sadly reviews are often based on how much advertising money they get from the publisher. Then they just parrot the PR spiel of said game.

I only really trust the opinions of people in the racing game community.
 
That reviewer must be a serious Xbox fanboy.
Probably just another reviewer. He probably posted "All 2000 cars in GT5 can be Race-Modded". I think this guy is just a press release reader who throws in some "imagination" on the side.

Sometimes I swear they call a friend and asks them and just repeat and embellish.
 
Couple of bits from the ISR preview made me twitch, one is clubs taking on other clubs in races, one was using your own cars and tunes for rivals modes so long as they meet the criteria and the other was confirmation that the exhaust notes change with upgrades. The idea that the Zonda could get even more ridiculous...

Some of them just don't know a darn thing about the product they're supposed to "review", but I guess that's not only happening to video games.

Luckily, it's not like that's the case for every review side. Some are decent, others are good, even. While I generally don't like Inside Sim Racing that much, they're usually doing pretty decent reviews.

IGN and Gamespot are typically okay-ish as well, as is Destructoid... Some of the small sites, though, seem like their reviewers are making stuff up, from time to time.
 
-_-

I just checked, and the online MS store won't ship the game until release date. It'll take me a few more days to get it.

I curse he who invented pre-order bonuses.
 
I will give the review guy some credit though. He got this right ..

"Once you begin racing, each car you choose has its own logic and feels like it should. Forza 4 also does a great job of balancing the tracks and opponents, so even if you are in a Ford Fiesta, begging the engine to finally hit 100mph, the race is every bit as intense as if you were in a Ferrari Enzo facing other super cars. The fact that it is just as much fun to race an F class car—the lowest of the low—as it is to race the elite S class cars should tell you all you need to know about Forza 4"

Think you will find it was. And in another video Dan actually says its a playable track.



I didn't hear anything about him saying the track was playable or even going to be in FM4.

Personally I love the F-classes. Really excited to start in the Agila and add a bit more power into it.

I like the bigger hot hatches - the Astra VXR, Focus ST, Leon Supra, Golf GTI, Civic Type R - a lobby full of these cars can be great fun.
 
I had the Forza 4 LCE pre-ordered on the MS website.

My card got damaged and I got it replaced, not thinking about the pre-order. I just realized this, and called up MS to swap the card number. They couldn't do this, so I canceled the order.

I couldn't re-order from MS, as it was sold out. I ordered it from TigerDirect instead. The only reason I even ordered from MS was for the CR-Z.

Is there any other way that I can get the CR-Z? I'm desperate for it. :(

I also said I heard that in another video. You wanna try sifting through hundreds of videos to find a 4 second sentence?
