They couldn't pick better cars for the trailer love it.

Now i need that new xbox there goes the money saved up for the car lol.

Eudemon · May 21, 2013

I felt the trailer was more PGR than Forza, are they trying to blend the two together perhaps?

superhyper · May 21, 2013

That was my initial thought as well but I kinda got the same vibes with the FM3 announcement trailer back in 2009 which was also CGI and very misleading. I'll wait for gameplay footage before deciding anything :hmmm:

As good as the game looks, if I can't play used games on the new Xbox without paying monies, I'm not buying one.

Camel · May 21, 2013

Those screenshots. :drool:

T1M · May 21, 2013

If the game actually looks like that then just stfu and take my money already jeez

Ryzza5 · May 21, 2013

Graphics look nice (but we always knew that would be the case), but besides that the trailer didn't really reveal much (besides the P1 possibly being excluded from other racing games) :(

TimBud · May 22, 2013

Looks like this could actually be a Forza game that's significantly different than the last one.

He says hopefully.

Also hope that commentator is only for the trailer.

seriously? he's a great commentator, he's from radio lemans.

Am I the only one who's not been set alight by this? The whole video reminded me of reminded me very much of GRiD...which for a simulator is't a good thing.

(besides the P1 possibly being excluded from other racing games) :(

I'll have a hunt out, but I did see somewhere that GT6 has the car. So MS havent been able to steal that as of yet. ;)

TimBud · May 22, 2013

Don't care who he is or how good he is. Can't imagine anything worse than commentating while i'm driving

:p

Mb · May 22, 2013

To be honest. I'm not impressed with the trailer. Game does look good but that's about it.

The Compensator · May 22, 2013

I don't think this was an actual game footage.

Eudemon · May 22, 2013

A very good point has been made elsewhere, XBone will only use its own hardware or those that have been greenlit for it (again like X360) so FM5 could come out and there will be no decent wheel to use with it!

that is a problem :hmmm:

so you're saying even the fanatec wheels will not work with it?

superhyper · May 22, 2013

I doubt it :(

e:

Official cover? (From Forzacentral/BADNED) Also this (from the same place):

And last, I'd like to bring up this, just to remind people not to jump to conclusions just yet ;)

It's a hot topic around and has in fact been asked on the Forza forums. It's mainly because MS put out info saying that ONLY XBone "controllers and accessories" will work with it. The controllers use a new Wireless standard hence the incompatibility and apparently Fanatec themself mentioned a few months back about trying to upgrade the wheels if required.

how inconvenient is it to buy a wheel that is upwards of $300 just because your reasonably priced logitech wheel would not work with the xbox 360 and then find out non of it would work with the new xbox anyway :lol:

that has been the only thing that stopped me buying an xbox 360.

Ryzza5 · May 22, 2013

And what if you spent $1300 on new wheel/pedals/shifter that were X360 compatible so you could play Forza (the wheel has a Forza logo on them). Don't care how amazing the new Forza is - I won't be getting it if my wheel doesn't work with it (unless there's a good Horizon sequel)

When Fanatec mention 'upgrade', you wonder if that means you'll have to get your toolkit out...
