It is a Ferrari...

Yeah man. I'm creaming my fanboy nickers for this game.

GT5 is going to be sooooo much better when or if you play it in 6+ months.

It will either be:

A. Marginally better.
B. Mediocre or on par compared to all the fun you could have with Forza.
C. In the words of my wise friend Brian... still won't be able to do proper donuts.

drive the other cars


same thing i tell everyone else don't use the Ferrari as an example.......

The demo is alright, for what it is. Once you get use to the California when using manual w/ clutch its hella fun. my highest drift score in one lap so far was a 17,256 or some shit? im pretty consistent now, which is cool. the gravel doesnt trap you as much as forza 2. you can kind of power your way back on to the track. the new rewind feature is sweeet. one thing me and a friend noticed is there is no shifting animation when u use the in car view. but when you go to 3rd person, its there? uuuuuggghhh i cant wait.

[irax]

i think they did that to keep the frame rates consistent

[ESmorz]

I'm ranked #84 out of 275,000 in drift mode.

Boosh.

[Flipzide]

nate is still ranked higher. pwnt, lol.

[ESmorz]

Whatever.

I gave up.

My thumbs hurt.

[Fries]

Demo is so fun. So excited for the release! FUCK YOU NEED FOR SPEED:SHIT!

[Z33dori]

Yes sir it is.

When I get home today, I'm gonna try to get into the 60's or 50's.

[kouki fanatic]

i loved it, with the manual/clutch. u can actually heel-toe downshift lol. and about the guys hand not shifting in the cockpit view: i think theyll fix it in the actual game rather than the demo

[cali_love]

AHH why the fuck did buy a ps3

no it's not gonna be in the game. They said they were having trouble getting him to not drag his hand through the wheel, and so they just cut it. there just wasn't enough time b/c they absolutely had to make the made dead line.

jobs were on the line with this game after all the fiasco w/ FM2.

[ZX88]

drifting no assist with the wheel is tuff.

ps.

flipping cars is awesome.

It was confirmed months ago no shift animations in cockpit. That would require delaying the game.........

Their not going to add something into the game if its half assed.

[Z33dori]

just sharing some photos from the other boards... incase some of you haven't seen them









so we know the R33 is drift able.... so i'm really hoping that we can RWD swap the R32.... and keep the RB in it

[JayDee M Rolly]

i really hope the cars go lower, i remember watching that hypebeast video with project awesomejack and some of the cars where still riding high

[wtb24o]

so we know the R33 is drift able.... so i'm really hoping that we can RWD swap the R32.... and keep the RB in it

adjust it so the torque is applied 100% to the rear like in forza 2?

Even then it still wasn't 100% in the first one. Supposedly in the new one it will be a true 100%.... Hopefully.

And yes, JC, it's going to be a long month. :/

[Z33dori]

this time they actually have separate drive-train swaps. So it should be possible, since they made the 22B rwd then i would at least think they would have a RWD swap for all popular RWD swapped drifto mobiles.

Rolly, i'm pretty sure we will never get back the awesomeness of forza one where the s14s sideskirt was almost touching at a stopped position..... god i can't believe how much fun that game still is.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Hell, I'm playing Forza 2 right now. It's still a blast. Granted, I'm only playing it to get my last achievement, haha. Still need $500,000 more online credits.

[4DOOR_LIFE]

those screen shots look awesome. especially those Work Equip 01s on that corolla! ! oh snap i just noticed, that corolla has a body kit ! ! ! hip hip hooray! ! i sure hope they added more kits to other cars rather than keep the ones they originally had in forza 2. this is going to be one awesome birthday for me, since it comes out the day of.

oh yeah, to anyone who hasnt added me on 360. do so

I hope they have kits people actually run on there cars. BN, version select, origin, etc. forza two had alot of the same kits as forza 1. cool to see the s13is in the game again. wtf is with the s15 where is the inter cooler there is just generic black texture.

Wow I just got done playing the demo and this game is sickk. They definitely upped the graphics in my book, and the physics are really nice. The clutch add on is pretty cool even though its hard to use.
check out the team black jack drifting video on the new map.

look at 1:50 s14 interior crazy!!
On the other note I also recently tried GT5 prologue and wow that game is horrible. The physics on that feel like I'm playing an arcade game, and pretty much all the cars feel the same. I don't get what all the hype is about that game the graphics are also very weak on it.

[BoostedCoupe]

I love how the drifting physics on the game are the exact same as the racing physics. Games that have a drift "mode" sucks, just have one physic like forza and be done makes the game so much better. Is there anyword that a 180 will be in the game for sure? i seen a couple of car list that had a 98 180sx listed. From the pics posted above it looks like the wheels fit better to. I cant wait until the 27th

[JayDee M Rolly]

wow you guys dont know your sims. "drift mode" does not change the physics on GT5. also the Forza 3 demo has a drift mode as well so stfu fanboys and dont base this game just from the demo and the video.

jc, the awesomeness i miss the most from forza 1 was the RB26 RWD swap. mmmmmm

[kouki fanatic]

can we drift with the other cars, or does it have to be the ferrari cuz it rear wheel?

[Z33dori]

the porsche is fun once u get into the hang of it
