The OFFICIAL forza 3 thread

I got it yesterday. It's pretty fun, but nothing groundbreaking. I know it has me wishing I had a 1080p HDTV instead of 720... but alas.

I am pretty disappointed that the 370Z sport package doesn't include the sport package spoiler. I am tempted to write them and ask wtf is up with that.

I played this a lot last night. Like posted above, if you played Forza 2, it's nothing groundbreaking. But it's still very fun none the less.

Had to get the black 370z with black Volk TE37, naturally.... if only you could put some vynal on the wheels for the time attack stripe....

I was dissapointed that it won't let you paint the factory wheels.

I have both a 720P/1080i TV and a 1080P TV and comparing them back to back is negligible...the difference is so small its not worth upgrading.

xiven · 10-28-2009, 04:07 PM

1080p is worth getting if the tv is 47"+

m4a1mustang · 10-28-2009, 06:10 PM

Thanks guys, I feel better now.

ChrisSlicks · 10-28-2009, 08:35 PM

I have a 37" 1080p but the resolution is really a waste unless you sit directly in front of it @ 4-feet away. The 55" in the living room on the other hand looks great from anywhere.

I picked the game up yesterday (preorder) and i like it a lot but other than the cockpit view its really that too awful different than Forza 2

MC · 10-28-2009, 10:18 PM

^ cockpit view is a disapointing aspect of FM3 the roll cage in the Super GT GT-R looks like its from a old PC race game........ NFS Shift had a lot better rendered interiors, GT5 is gonna crush it in this aspect ..hell even prologue looked better inside.

over all i like the game though, has a clean minimal feel to the menu screens, physics are good and the game doesnt seem frustrating to me..yet. i give it like a 8 out of 10

phelan · 10-29-2009, 12:30 AM

This is a guess but I think the reason the spoiler isnt on there is because the 370 is the JDM version. They took all edit* most of the cars from there origin country and made it to those specs....

I'll agree with you on that...the bigger the TV the more noticeable the higher resolution will be.
