Well I guess you must also be awaiting Gran Turismo 5 then?

What does that have to do with anything?  This thread is about how awesome Forza is (especially now that its only a few months away from release) not about GT in any way.

NOT CGI, it's ingame

Are you sure thats in game?? Cuase those pics are actually perfect.  If they are ingame i'm goina guess that they are the dolled up pics of it.

"Screenshots" are probably from photo mode. Then photoshopped. Still, it looks like a massive improvement over Forza 2 which was pretty damn ugly IMO.

Now Microsoft and Logitech just need to make the G25 work with the XBox360.

they've got also another video at their site...

They did boast the fact that it is "Best looking racer this gen"

GT5P takes the photos at a higher resolution than the main game with a few extra effects. I suspect that this may be the case here as well. The fact that the pictures have been resized means that its got 'free' supersampling AA applied already to make everything look even sharper/snappier.



Tease.

100% ingame visuals guys. If GT5 can do it, why not Forza 3?

They definitely look like bullshots, but sadly that's standard practice in the industry. When your competitors release bullshots, your own screenshots look like crap if you don't doll them up.

As for the G25, that's actually the #1 thing they could do for the hardcore racing sim fans. I'm not much into racing sims myself, but on dedicated racing sim forums the lack of G25 support was the biggest complaint about Forza 2.

Edit: From the post above, sounds like a quality wheel might be coming. We'll see how that turns out.
