New 'hollywood style' visual effects (Not my bag)
Lots of 'car porn' stuff,

Gameplay showed flames from the exhausts, which is OK, but the 'shift style' stuff.. errghhh...

No weather/night shown (but not reading much into that either way)..

Icing on the cake..

Been rubbin one off to this for the last hour or so. Seems too elaborate to be a April fool as speculated elsewhere. Hope its real.

Has the release date been announced for this?

Decent head tracking might persuade me to buy Kinect.

Wonder whether I can get Solid Gold on FM3 before this comes out...

 

[Ampeg]

Looks fantastic, really looking forward to that. Nice bit of White Zombie as well .

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Wait... "With the power of kinect" **** around and do stuff that has no basis on how you play the game.
Im not a fan of this direction, do you remember the days when Forza was more interested in pushing the boundaries of consoles racing physics?
From this trailer, which I agree is too elaborate to be an April Fools, it just seems like they're more interested in making the Facebook of racing games and moving away from realism. A damn shame.

Edit: The head tracking part is the only thing that could prove positive from this. If the game is an absolute console racer, no-physics abortion though... Why bother?

 

[Droolinggimp]

Anynews on a new location for the video? The Youtube one has been taken off.

Edit: Found it

The cars look amazing in the walk around bits but look ok in the races same as forza 3 really.

 

[coltpython3]

this looks so bad. i miss the need for speed underground series

 

[msmalls74]

Got fooled by the E3 presentation of FM3, will wait for this to come out TBH. Has some good additions though, cars on track dont look as good as i thought but its early days yet.

"our new Hollywood style visual and audio effects bring an immersion that can't be found anywhere else." I love statements like that.

 

[Nismo]

Can't wait. I'll be playing controller-only, but the Kinect head tracking will come in useful.

lol , given that their two different racers il take your comment with a pinch of salt.


cant wait for 4. loved 3, hated gt5 and desperately need my racing fix again.

Wearing two layers of "Hype Filters"

Looks to improve on FM3 in many areas.
They do seem to be going more EA/SHIFT than replicating actual racing or simulating motorsports more accurately, though.

However 16 cars on X360 with headtracking and Hollywood Effects, that to me points to 30fps being more likely. Which I havnt a problem with, 16 cars does more for fun in my books than the extra framerate would be missed, if indeed this is the case.

Hoping triple screens will once again be supported and should be another racing game to look forward to.
Thats all I wanted to say.

Was thinking exactly the same. Also very interested to see how good steering the cars with Kinect will be.

 

[Skii]

If there is weather and night/day as well, I will, literally, melt.
