Forza Motorsport 3 Hands-On
Despite featuring pretty graphics and hundreds of fancy sports cars, we normally avoid racing simulators because they expose our weak driving skills. Forced to drive realistically on real world courses, it only takes us a few minutes before we spin out of control and crash into a wall. Not so with Forza Motorsport 3. Microsoft's Gran Turismo killer can test even the most seasoned digital driver, but for us newcomers, developer Turn 10 Studios included assists that put us in control of the exotic muscle cars instead of the other way around.
In our brief time with the game, we test drove the gorgeous Audi R8. Now before we enabled the driving assists, we attempted to win a race without any help. That, as expected, was a disaster. While the car controlled well, we had issues jumping from last to first. Of course, hitting other vehicles and clipping a wall never equals success.
Those driving assists, however, helped us tremendously. First, the Autobrake automatically slows the car down whenever it approaches a corner. In addition, an on-screen racing line shows where you'll need to position the car to have the best possible chance to win, and the line goes from green (floor it) to red (brake) to indicate the optimal speed. There's also a rewind feature (similar to the one in Race Driver: GRID) that allows you to reverse the clock by up to 10 seconds to have another go at one of multiple screw-ups; there's no limit to how many times you can use this.
Here's where things got especially interesting. In older racing games, using rewind wouldn't have a dramatic effect on what occurs ahead of your car. If, for example, the first and second place cars collide, rewind would only give you the opportunity to avoid the crash. Thanks to Forza's dynamic artificial intelligence, however, the same crash may not take place. We saw this in action, as we made a sharp turn and immediately slammed into an accident involving three cars. Instead of choking on our exhaust, we rewound the race a few seconds, came around that same corner and found an open straightaway. The accident never happened. As a result, we caught up to those cars and won the race, barely edging out a speedy Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.
In retrospect, Forza Motorsport 3 isn't the first game to have driver assists, but the combination of them sets it apart from the competition. And while they do make things easier, you don't have to use them; simply toggle them on/off before a race.
As for the actual racing, we haven't had this much fun with a sim in years. All of the cars take damage (as they do in Forza Motorsport 2), you can flip cars over, each one handles differently and a new in cockpit view gives you an up close look at your ride's interior, despite obscuring most of the race. While the game isn't as photorealistic as Gran Turismo on PS3, it's still gorgeous. The Audi R8, in particular, features stunning detail and real time reflections; races run at a blistering 60 frames per second with no slowdown.
Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to mess with the much-anticipated video editor or the enjoyable painting feature, but the demo made a lasting impression. Forza Motorsport 3 arrives October 26th and we can't wait to enjoy the full experience, two discs and all. Expect more tire shredding coverage in the near future.

pai de ce nu au facut sa arate ca GT5, sau chiar mai bine ? :|Quote:

60 FPS nu ti se pare motiv indeajuns 8-|? Framerate-ul e esential pentru un racing sim, iar la 60 Forza 3 o sa fie vis. Polyphony merg pe alta cale, dar daca vor sa respecte ce au aratat pana acum pentru GT5, jocul lor sigur nu va putea avea 60 FPS.Quote:

am inteles ideea :P
Pana nu avem ambele jocuri pe masa, asta este doar o parere personala. Foarte interesant mi se pare insa asta "Thanks to Forza's dynamic artificial intelligence, however, the same crash may not take place.", avand in vedere ca butonul de rewind (o tampenie, imo) are cateva secunde de re-play.Quote:

Dar existenta posibilitatii asteia de rewind mi se pare ca strica toata concentrarea si atentia din singleplayer.
destul de posibil.. dar oricum mie tot mi se pare ok... la o cursa cu "N" laps, faci o greseala in ultimii metrii :|.. nu trebuie sa reiei totul :DQuote:

Nu degeaba se numeste JOC. Adica te joci sa te simti bine nu sa arunci cu controller-ul ca ai ratat ultima curba din cursa de 25 lap-uri. Cine vrea sa faca din jocul asta un alter-ego si sa zica ca e super sofer sa isi dea brevetu de pilot si sa se duca pe pista.
Scuza-ma ca-ti spun dar o iei pe aratura si nici nu intelegi nimic din termenul "simulator".Cine se joaca sa "se simta bine" sa-si ia nene WII si sa joace Mario Kart.Quote:

Acum daca eu vreau sa vad cum e intr-un Murcielago pe Laguna Seca, ce trebuie sa fac?Sa-mi dau licenta de pilot? Cine imi da mie Murcielago pe mana sa merg cu 300kmh la ora?
Mai mult decat atat, daca vreau sa bag un simulator de avioane, ce fac?Imi dau brevetu de aviator, cine ar fi nebun sa-mi incredinteze mie un jet-fighter cand in Romania exista o mana de oameni care au mers pe MIG-uri?Ca sa nu zic de F-15?
Bobby, n-ai inteles esenta jocurilor ce se vor "sim". Nu e ca si cum daca joci Fifa foarte bine inseamna ca poti sa dai si cu sutu' in minte profesionist. Un racing game ce se vrea a fi simulator, ar trebui sa faca foarte bine treaba asta, pentru ca este joc de nisa. Forza Motorsport 3 vrea sa se adreseze atat fanilor sim, cat si "nefesistilor", cei care sunt obisnuiti sa ia curbele cu acceleratia la fund, eventual ajutati de niste parapeti.
Bobby, iar nu ti-ai facut lectiile. Stai jos, ai nota 2 :P
Eu nu inteleg de ce sariti asa pe el. Jocu are si niste optiuni ajutatoare, pentru cei care nu joaca hardcore. Vrei simulator si realism.. scoti optiunile. Simple as that.
Vorba lui Greyhound, parerea lu nenea ala care a facut preview-ul este nula. Iar comparatia intre GT5 si Forza Motorsport 3 nu-si are rostul. Am jucat si eu GT5p, ba chiar l-am jucat cu volan si in scaun racing. Am ramas placut surprins, probabil era de la grafica doar atat nimic mai mult.
mie nu imi place treaba cu 60 fps ,(la fel si la cod4 ) , pare mult prea arcade ! , vreau o optiune care sa limiteze la 30-40 fps :(
