it's just how these things work man...in pretty much all good graphic comparisons I have seen or read there are always those who think one thing or the other looks better on the previous one. don't mind it

apart from the car it just seems like they have changed things around a bit, different textures and colours... even if you look at the start of the video the tyre marks on the track are in the exact same places on both vids... almost looks like they edited the video and not the game itself.

the car does look better which is the important thing

Turn 10 - Forza 4 is generational leap ahead of Forza 3.

That is a pretty poor video to use, the FM3 video looks like it has been filmed off-screen.

Is there any proof that it is ACTUALLY footage from both FM3 and FM4?

Anyway, I don't even see much difference in the video, just FM4 has more natural colour and hasn't got crushed blacks, better light reflections of the car too.

"MASSIVE" difference? Not even close.

i do not see a "MASSIVE difference"

this is more like what i would expect to see from a sequel

definitely not "MASSIVE"

did you expect for Forza 4's graphic's to look exactly the same as Forza 3 the way Gear's 2 looked like Gears 1 or something??

ahhh Go on then if you insist ill bite your bait..... looks good....but it's still no GT5 ;)......what thats what you wanted isnt it?

@OT Basically things just looks a lot lighter, grass fence, car bonnet so you can see more details, I don't want more detail I wan't forza 4 to have more content, more cars, i think even gt1 had more cars than forza 3

The difference between FM3 and FM4 is like the PC version of a multiplat compared to consoles (and I'm talking about a PC version that really takes advantage of the PC's graphic hardware advantages).

It looks better... but honestly when playing it I might not notice. particularly if it was the same stage.


I was dissapointed in GT5... so that's not factoring in my decision here.

There is a positive difference indeed, I wouldn't say massive but it is very good step forward. The problem is this video, it's not all that good for comparison. The video Selnor posted in his previous thread were much better. I'd say you can find improvements in every departments. Mostly in the enviroment detal and in self-shadows, the car model also got better even thought those were already great in FM3.

These were the video posted by Selnor previously.

But I thought Forza 3 was the definitive racing game?
