Holy buttfuck.

Apparently you can neither accelerate nor brake in this.

Definitive.

looks worse than gt5 and they're actin like it's some motherfucking megaton

Will only buy if they can buy some of Bizarre's PGR1 models to cram into the game.

The hand steering wheel control sucks and moving your body to look around the car also sucks.  Using your hands to look around the car and spin it and so on would be cool though.

Yeah, when using Kinect.

This seems half-assed to me. I thought they used to have this in the Burnout Paradise demo (which also had the player sitting normally). Even if fine foot movements are too tough to recognize, it should be possible to push the 'controller' forward and back or something. Time to light the Chespace Signal.

All the Forza kinect stuff is early. Turn 10 set up a side team and told them to just throwing ideas against the wall to see what sticks. I'm sure when this Forza Kinect stuff is available to users it'll have a more in depth system and an easier way to move around the cars models and stuff. I'm also sure it'll have proper head tracking when it's all said and done.

I can buy sentences 1 + 2. Not so sure about sentences 3 + 4.

So, let me get this straight.

The big gimmick for Forza 4 is driving a damn car with NO FUCKING FORCE FEEDBACK PERIOD? Even the horrible N64 V3 wheel I got as a child has the friction of the damn wheel turning around.

A car sim game with no force feedback. LMFAO. You have to be shitting me. And people are saying this might be worth getting a Kinetic. It's going to be HORRIBLE.

This isn't a cart racer like Mario Kart, which pretty much did the same thing with the Wiimote. THIS IS FORZA. And it's going to cost some really stupid people $210 to figure that out (Kinetic estimated retail price and what Forza 4 WILL come out at put together, excluding tax)

gawdammit, I couldn't give a shit about the kinect stuff.  I was blown away by the graphics.

It's an all new engine that runs in HD and at 60fps, it truly is an amazing engine. There's absolutely no way Turn 10 and Microsoft are going to waste it on kinect-only stuff because that would piss off the games fanbase.

Yeah, I really don't get how people thought thats was going to be the only way to control the game now.  the kinect stuff is just a shiny side-attraction.

Forza 2 & 3 both were actually 720P with 2X AA but the lighting engine looks just amazing now.  I thought that youtube video was raytraced CGI at first.

Mojo, I can't even tell if you're serious.  You've been flip-flopping a lot lately.
