...that can stay a PS3 exclusive as far as I'm concerned. Apart from some very freaky visuals the gameplay has gotten pretty stale, i.e. the visuals have matured but the puzzles have not.
...why is the Wii in such high demand? it has only a couple of must have titles and the new games trickling out don't inspire and are often the poor mans cousin to the 360/PS3 version.
...not quite the finished product but I agree that it seemed flat and the sense of speed was not quite right.
What really annoys me is all the Xbots that defended the graphics prior to its release and now we have 3 separate reviews stating that the graphics are the games weakest point. I for one commented several times on the less then stellar graphics and hope that Forza 3 rectifies this. I just hope we don't have to wait for the Xbox 720 to see it...
...and I have to admit that the graphics are a let down. Gameplay wise its pretty solid - if you are into simulation but I for one won't be buying this. Now, if it had the visuals of DIRT then we'd be talking business.
As for the Sony fanboys commenting on all the hype...they are right on the money. It has been indeed overhyped.
...and given its simplicity is visually stunning on a nice HD display. If it does come to the PS3 its worth getting as it will probably only cost 4 or 5 dollars. I absolutely suck at it on the 360 but at least I have fun!
Can't believe they're trying to porn this off for $229. Mind you, I have no need for one as I stream all my music & videos from my PC to my 360. If the 360 could record TV (Tivo style) then I would get one.
I actually hate the fact that neither the 360 or PS3 can record off the TV.
...is show how superior the original Xbox was in terms of graphical prowess over the PS2. The PS2 could never pull off NG: Black to the level the Xbox did.
As for comparing it with the upcoming PS3 release - what's the f**king point. Of course the PS3 version looks 10 times better, hell if it didn't then the PS3 would be in real trouble.
...this is old news.
Even though its a few months till its released this game looks great. The dark, moody atmosphere should really set the tone. Turn off the lights, crank up the dolby surround and have some good FPS fun!
...could someone disagree with your comment?
...I know many are jumping on the Forza 2 bandwagon but the visuals in this game are clearly superior. Although the driving model is closer to arcade than realism I don't care, this game will be 100% fun!!!!!
Oh yes, the demo was fantastic - really showed off some great damage modeling (that look way better than that in the Fora 2 demo). And the 2 in-car views are the icing on the cake.
Maybe then it will have all it does now but some truly next gen visuals as well. I was disappointed with the demo and although there have been some improvements, not enough for me to feel happy playing this on my HD display. I kept getting distracted by the graphics being a let down...
Now, bring on DIRT which obviously is more of an arcade racer...but hell, it looks fantastic!
...was because of the price. UMD movies looked brilliant on the PSP screen but why would you pay more for a UMD than you would for the DVD!
Now there is no point to buying UMD movies as you can compress (www.pspvideo9.com) your DVD in full PSP resolution thanks to PSP firmware updates. However, you still have the problem of where to store them...
...that the Wii did not have more horsepower under the hood. Imagine using the power of the 360 or PS3 but having the Wii controller to control the game.
...maybe we need a new section aimed at the lighter side or general gaming knowledge.
...who didn't think they were done and dusted before the Wii was released and look at what they have done. They have used simplicity and innovation to keep gaming fun and relevant. They have achieved the "Tetris" of the hardware world.
You have to think about what's next for Wii....Wii-HD anyone?
...look good but as with most PSP games as soon as they start using lots of background textures things start to look average.
...reminds me of all the f**king leaches that register domain names in the off chance a big player will want to use it one day so they can be held to ransom. They are all bottom dwellers and should be treated as such.
I'm no fan of Sony and am indifferent about Blu-Ray but when weasels like this crawl out of the woodwork for nothing more than their own personal gain it just pi**es me off.
When I read crap like this there is no way I'm buying a PS3 for my kids and run the risk of them becoming a Sony fanboy.
...a heck of a lot of fun but you're always left wanting for more...that never seems to come. The games are often shallow and really only fun in a group setting.
The Wii is selling well now but what happens if/when the casual gamer it attracts out grows what the Wii can provide? I dare say if the PS3 had been half its price then the Wii would not have stood a chance as the PS3 is both a casual and hardcore gamer.
