    The game has shaped up well. Some loose ends still but definately clean and nice enough (the art contrast kind of sits wrong with me, but the quality appears very good). Argueably the best looking retail racer come May and should be a killer sim.

    Hey if they want to do accurate damage modelling for an Enzo, well.... here's something they could use as a reference.

    ;)

    Close enough for me. The spokes are thin, and can be black.

    Don't copy complete interviews. Other sites need ad revenue as well.

    I personally feel tournaments need to be balanced to the players skill level.
    In PGR for example, you've got a damn sight better chance of getting in a tournament if you have the wheel. Simple things like that.
    Considering the work the forza guys did on drivatars, etc, surely they could give players a category rating.. Just like real drivers race at different levels.
    Makes a good chunk of the game inaccessible and frustrating otherwise. It's annoying tyring for a PGR tournament only to find your 8 seconds off the pace...

    ...and some examples of the new Livery editor. Looks cool, I'm not going to be designing anything, I'll probably let someone else do all the hard work and pick up something sweet off the auction house.

    Great pics :grin: . Argh, this game is tempting me to get X360 now, but I must continue to resist :mad: :cry:

    Its a given that Halo themed cars will sell like hotcakes on auction house :wink:

    The first shot looks great (though I'm still not digging the super chrome finish that makes it look... "not real" or whatever, it's good, but something is off). The wheels look nice.

    The second and third shots... they look like weird captures. The aliasing on the car combined with the blur makes it look funny, like it was rendered at a lower res and upscaled; I'm not saying that's the case, but it just looks odd to me. But on further reflection, I think I like the third shot the most (Che's dream car? :p). They seem to have nailed down the look of the plastic for the car lights. While the exposure is extremely distracting, the car itself looks great, and again, the detail in the wheels and rims is superb.

    Thanks for the link :cool:

    I actually like these pics better than the usual ss that all games get when previewed by websites, because for me, this is more of an actual representation of how the game would look like on my set, which is in this case, looks very good :grin:

    it was at seoul motor show. i pmed him to persuade him to join B3D but he told me that B3D was too complicated(?)

    you could get more pics here if some are missing at that link.

    he said he didn't feel there was any sort of MSAA at all. for framerate, he said it wasn't fixed 60fps but was minor drop in framerate for very short amount of time.
