Not heard anything, but I hope so, having both in 2009 would be great, along with Race Pro

Awww, it's still going to have events. Hate having to keep loads of different cars.

The rumours are that PGR5 and Forza 3 will be one and the same..

Or certainly both now being created by Turn 10..

Blizzard (PGR) I think have announced they aren't doing the next PGR..

Turn 10 (Forza) have been going on about how much more staff they have taken on for this epic project they are now working on..

Not sure how it would pan out, PGR and Forza are different enough in their approaches that it's hard to think how you would marry them up.. I hope they keep them seperate..

Scratch that, I wish they would lavish just 50% of the time of the GT5 development on getting the looks to match the Forza physics..

You wouldn't, that's the worst rumour ever.

The only thing we know for certain is Blizzard are not working on PGR5, and Turn 10 have massively expanded their operation, moving into new headquarters etc.. and they keep teasing of this huge project..

PGR and FM may stay seperate, just both from Turn 10, it may turn into some big all in one game (I Hope not!).. but something 'big' is happening, or so they keep saying.. I just wish they would tell us what it is!

This year apparently for Forza 3. There's a new game called race-pro which should tide us over until then. It's a proper racing sim.

Some info here: http://www.forzamotorsport.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=56

I suspect Blizzard have their hands full with WoW to worry about making a PGR game - unless they are planning World Of PGR

Bizarre Creations on the other hand....

cpinch73 · 17 Jan 2009 at 18:45

I've already ordered race pro and its going to be awesome, even more of a Sim than forza 2

I was getting confused there too, didnt bizarre creations close down though or something to that effect?

I was trying to work out what the hell Blizzard had to do with things :confused:

I bought Forza 2 from Zaavi on the cheap, was about £14 iirc - After playing, I stuck it straight back in the box, never went back to it. Such a disappointing game imo.

You have to slow down for bends?

Drukk · 17 Jan 2009 at 19:36

Forza 2 , one of the best games on 360 imo. The more you play it , the better it gets.

PinkFloyd · 17 Jan 2009 at 19:44

Loved Forza2 despite the fact the races in SP weren't brilliant and I needed so many cars to avoid doing the same races over and over again. Online was great.

I hope Forza3 expands on everything 2 did. Oh I also hope suddenly and magically it will support my G25 steering wheel on 360 xD

I obviously didn't play it a huge amount but I found it very difficult to enjoy. Coming from Colin Mcrae it's a fair bit different. I hated the steering, the maps were a pain to get used to and also having to rely on the slow down, speed up indicator on the track was annoying. The first impressions I got weren't good.
