Not entirely impressed, v gud car physics but graphics not "photo-realistic" at all. Gd smaller features tho, including the detail gone into spectators and the glowing brake-discs

Do they still have the lines on the road to tell you how much to brake?

Yeah the brake lines are there, but you can turn them off if you want.  I hated the demo and def. won't be buying the game.

I didn't play the demo yet , but if the graphics are as horrible as everyone say they are , Im ready to bet it's because it's a old build of the game .

i think they should have put in a career race rather than arcade exabition mode.  the demo dosn't show of forza's strenghts,  what seperates forza from the rest of the racers.

I am new to these types of games, but i decided to try it out and I enjoyed it for the most part. But one question, how do you turn corners without sliding across the freaking map. I brake and all but I dunno.

If you've never played a simulation racing game before Forza is a good place to start.  Turn on the racing line, and it will tell you when to brake, when to coast, and when to accelerate.  The general idea is to brake before the turn, coast into it, and accelerate out of it all while going from the outside, to the inside, and back to the outside.

Back to the topic, I thought the demo was a good display of the racing and AI.  I thought the graphics were fine, but im not too picky about that stuff.  I wish the demo would have include the livery editor and a few career races, because like someone said thats what seperates Forza from the rest.

I think it is more of the same from the first game and that is a good thing.  The first game was so well done that all they could improve on would be more cars, to choose from and have in the race.  Also, the graphics look great.  Is the game running at 60fps?  It definitely looks faster than the first game.

I exchanged my PS3 for the 360 in February, it's been great since, but honestly... THE GRAN TURISMO HD!!! demo is better than this Forza demo which is an already complete build of the game, the graphics are off! the physics were decent, but 2nd to GTHD, the damage was awkward, DID ANYONE NOTICE THE CAR LOOKS CELL SHADED when its damaged!! I was laughing!!! Every1, including all us X360 owners know the best Racing game console is PS3, heck I had SOOO much fun with the Motorstorm demo when it released!! I love the BMW M3 though!!; )  im looking forward to Dirt, that 1 looks better, OF COURSE!! i cant forget the real game will have great features to back up what looks to me, a lastgen mediocre game!

Sooooo, why you have a XBOX 360 right now?
I didint notice nothing, and until May 29 the best racing simulator in the world is Forza Motorsport in the XBOX.

Then people will be wanting to transfer their earnings and customized cars. Turn 10 explicitly stated that they did not want to include any of this because it would be wasted time. They want people to start the game fresh without any qualms to the car they left behind in the demo.

I have not played a whole lot of other simulation racers, but I have put in some time with GT4. It feels fine to me. Also, you have to realize that damage really isn't anything more than cosmetic in the demo. I have no idea why they made that decision, but it's there. As for the people who say the graphics suck, well, I have no response. I'm still playing on an SDTV =(.

In any case, it's a simulation racer, and I'm getting it over any other racing game for the 360.

A bit of a loss for me, as I was really looking forward to it, but now I'm confused whether I should get it or not. The reviews and opinions of the people will decide.

Remember demos are usually not the final build... It could be the demo the press has been playing for months.

i think a few people thought a final product (like me!) the career mode and the mode where damage actually affects performance will be where its at - not 4getting online! also, graphics may also be improved by final version

I loved the Demo and I will definetly be picking up this game, I thought the Graphics were pretty average but it runs silky smooth at the 60FPS and the gameplay is perfect. Definetly going to be a lot of fun with the racing wheel!

After playing the demo I'm not sure whatther I'll get this game.  I'm new to sim racers and therer's definitely a learning curve, which turned me away.  However once I really get the hang of the game I think I'll have more fun, it's good to have a challenge sometimes.  I'll admit that the environmental graphics were a little disappointing but to all of the people wondering:  They're not "bad" at all, they're as good as a simulation needs to be so it can achieve maximum framrate.  I was pretty impressed with the amount of info the game keeps track of relating to the physics of your car though I would have liked to play with the customization a bit.  Like I said before I'm still on the fence with this game, I'll have to play it more to help make my decision.

Yes... it may be an early build though. Needless to say, I'm not buying it until I find out. If I want great Forza gameplay, I'll pop in Forza 1. The graphics in this demo are on par with PGR3, which is nice but it's also disappointing because I expected more from this game. Especially because of how good the first one looked.

But yeah... here's to hoping it's an early build.

the graphics are not terrible at all, but the certainly not 'photo-realistics' as advertised
