Proof that Forza at E3 works for real and perfectly.

Seems like a neat concept (the showroom car exploring, the driving sucks big time), but I can't imagine dancing around the room trying to check out 2-3 cars, basicaly doing squats... Well I'm not sold on that, head tracking is neat, but for the rest I'd prefer a classic racing setup with either wheel or atleast a controler. Kinect isn't really offering you anything that you wouldn't find from the competetion, maybe if there was a voice command to start your Bentley :).

And the imagination stops there with you I guess. 

What if Turn 10 implemented the other ideas they have, changing car parts yourself. Livery editor to include physically sparaying your car yourself. 

And for the thousand time, Turn 10 will include this fun take 5 mins out from hardcore racing as a side mode on Forza 4. The usual FFB wheel with motorized unit headtracking will be there.

This game will be car porn to the highest degree.

Changing parts yourself? That's neat, but also a useless gimmick, what do I gain from pretending to be mechanic? Not saying that it won't interest somebody, but it's a gimmick. Spraying the car? You can do that with the Wii, let alone Move (which is unlike Kinect actually really precise).

All I'm saying is that Kinect with Forza doesn't offer anything that couldn't be done elsewhere = implementing gimmick's. How many people will buy 150 USD device for these functions? Well I'm afraid that many, but those are really useless gimmicky functions that doesn't enhance the game in any way.

Obviously you dont buy hardware for 1 game. And in a racing game I want the wheel. So of course these extras are extras. 

But they are extras not all possible elsewhere. It's interaction on a car lovers level. Many people go on and on about GT being car porn. And for the car lovers. What more can a car lover want than to physically inspect every part of a car he'll never afford? Learn about maintaining and changing parts on a Ferrari?

Yeah some people wont bother, they just wanna race. But some people will love the feature. It's like having a personal Virtual car encyclopedia. Something you cannot get on any other console.

The main game wont change. But the game will feel far more complete as a car enthusiast game with these features.
