XBOX: Just played Forza Motorsports Demo - SRT Forums

IBLIS · 01-11-2005, 11:15 AM

I rented Mech Assualt 2 Lone Wolf from BB & was getting sick of it, so I clicked the Demo's. Holy S, Forza Motorsports Demo!

The game is sick, it actually drives & looks better than Gran Turismo "I'm not trying to start a game platform war" It uses real world physics & the graphics are just sick. Even down to the detail they put into reflection & such. Gran Turismo always had a blocky effect to the cars, these cars look clean & smooth, there is no missing details. Very, very, sweet! Maybe XBOX found a way to fight back against the Gran Turismo freight train?

They didn't have the SRT-4 in the Demo, but it was shown in the credits a few times. You can add bodykits & stuff, so it looks like it will please the true driver game fans as well as the street racer game fans.

Street cars available in the Demo were:
03 Nissan 350Z Track Edition
04 Subaru Impreza STi
04 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII GSR
04 Acura NSX
05 Chevrolet Corvette C6
05 Ferrari 360 Modena F-1
03 Porsche 911 GT3
99 Dodge Viper GTS ACR
Super Cars
01 Audi #1 Infineon R8
99 Toyota #27 GT-ONE TSO 20
99 BMW Motorsports #15 V12 LMR
96 Ferrari #12 Risi Competezione F3335 SP

All the cars seem up to spec # wise & in the credits there is even a warning about adding aftermarket parts to your car / voiding your warranty. Check with your local manufacture mumbo jumbo

Go check it out, Mech Warrior is pretty cool too.

So you have been to Japan and played Gran Turismo 4 yourself?

Actually I traded my XBox for PS2 only for GT4. If I had the option, I'd have GT4 on XBox.

But saying you've played a game when it hasn't came out yet is really lame. Don't compare the two games until they both have final releases out in the U.S.

i think he is referring to gt3 and not gt4.

i just got back from tokyo, GT4 is off the wall.

i hear you can do engine swaps in Forza....which is fcukin cool as hell...

I've played the forza demo as well. And I think it's freaking awesome for a demo. If the game came out and was as good as the demo was I would be very happy. Considering the developers have 6 months or more since the demo was released to work and polish this game it's hard to say how good it will turn out. Each vehicle sounds and looks like the real deal. Very impressive. Even if forza was actually better than gt-4 it would be hard to persuade people that are gt-4 fans any difference. (Not saying gt-4 is bad or anything). It's kinda like I have this and it's the best kinda attitude. Just because you don't have a ferrari doesn't make it any better or worse than your car. haha you get what I mean....hopefully....don't you???? haha

xither0ckxi · 01-11-2005, 08:35 PM

Forza?
Gt4?

Considering that GT4 isn't even out yet that was a mighty fine trade.

So I guess you have played the GT4 demo......oh wait there is no GT4 demo. So in other words Forza > GT4

myfault · 01-12-2005, 03:34 PM

forza > gt4

I was comparing it to GT3 & Gran Turismo in general.. I'll make sure I make it clear in the future for you.

& no, I haven't been to Japan "yet"

It's nice to see XBOX step up & I shit you not, the graphics are SWEET!

GT4 is completely different from the past versions. So comparing GT3 to Forza is just pointless.
