Don't Believe Forza 3 Bullshots, The Game Has Series Issues (56k warning)

To be fair and balanced yes it is true Gran Turismo has it's share of bull shots. However, Gran Turismo realtime gameplay always manages to look 85-90% as good as the photomode pics and the cars keep all their features and detail when you race them. Maybe the AA is turned down during gameplay but that's about it.

On the other hand Turn 10 is hustling Forza fans. Their bullshots look NOTHING like the real time gameplay. The cars lose parts, polygons, resolution and texture quality in real time gameplay. Whole features go missing, from parts on the cars to details in the track. The cars look maybe 40-50% as good in real time as they do in bull shots and photomode pics.

What happened was Turn 10 created car models somewhat near to that of GT5, stuck 8 of them on screen at 720p (compared to GT5's 16 @1080p ) and the 360 spased out and spit it out. So just like how you have to turn the graphics down on that high end game on your PC to get it to run properly Turn 10 has done the same with 360.

This is unfair to the consumer, because on PC you can get a better PC and match the great screenshots developers show, but there's NO WAY you get graphics of the quality in the bullshots of Forza 3 for the 360.

This is false advertising

Screen caps!?!?!?!?!? lol!.

And we all know that those GT5 shots are in-game, right? You know, with 48X anti aliasing and 96X anisotropic filtering...

I don't care about photos, the video I saw of someone racing was freaking hot.

If you want people to believe you. Try not to make your screenshots the dodgiest pictures possible on forza 3, we know your a sony fanboy but come on seriously? You expect us to believe you with those screenshots? Ha!

lol, that ferrari is only doing 2mph at 6000rpm, how unrealistic.InsaneBasura

look at that blury ass road texture, now when its gettin closer to release its swhoing its true colors becuz they know they cant lie any longer. the car is a preprogrammed illusion. that model is swapped in for photomode. the skybox doesnt have any clouds, ive never seen a cloudless sky in reality, so its faked.

If you think that the Xbox 360 or the PS3 is capable of producing such graphics, then you should really wake up, buddy.

good question is where did you get those 'screen caps'?dotWithShoes

Doesn't matter where I got them from, it's obvious in bull shots and showroom pics the graphics are turned to "HIGH" but in realtime when it actually matters they are turned to "LOW"

This is unfair to the consumer because they will never be able to see the graphics Turn 10 is throwing everywhere in real time except for maybe photomode pics and showrooms.

The yellow lamborghini pic is real time.

First off all, the textures look weird because of motion blurr, and the shot isn't fakes only added AA/DOF, which is already 4X(AA) ingame.

did you take a photo of a forza youtube running on a an ipod with a gameboy camera?

Those shots you provided are horrible quality

Using screen caps from an off screen source? Fail

ThatsSimtastic

Agreed, this thread is an instant-fail.

Could you have found worse shots to make your point? Come back when you get direct feed, HD shots of gameplay that support your point.

Lulz.

Look at all those low res textures and blur. OH MY GAWD. See? Forza sucks and has crappy graphics! This screen is fact and i probably won't be saying how i got this. :P

It's a little sad that someone would be skewed enough to do this. With offscreen shots. Lol.

The first picture is of the first split secound of a replay, when not everything has loaded yet.

I guess the TC doesn't understand what photomode is.

People like that are what make me lose faith in humanity.

People who can't recognize bullshots are funny. So how does it feel Neo? Seeing the world with your own eyes for the first time. jk.

Anyways, I've seen the gameplay videos, it looks sick. Of course it doesn't look like photomode, but that doesn't mean it looks like crap by any means.

huh..i didnt know serious was spelt series. Of course the game doesnt look like the opening credits its not in game.

forza3>gt5videogamesetras

hahahahahaha please tell me your joking

Nice try OP, but sorry. Fail.

lol, at all the forza fanboys

Well the great thing is that FM3 is gonna be here is out soon now, and if the dev and recent rumors are to be believed, we may see GT5 this year too. So speculation at this point is almost moot. The truth about both games is gonna be there for all to see before long.

I think FM3 is gonna look great.... way better than TC's shots show. I think GT5 is gonna look great too, and I'm gonna end up buying it day 1. The hype on both games in here is out of control. I'd be shocked if either game ships with the graphics SW is expecting at this point...

Forza and GT5 both look great only fanboys argue about the graphics of the two games. What people should argue about if they must is what do the games offer and gameplay. Some of the things like damage,customization,A.I. or other things that set them apart is what should be debated. As for myself Forza would offer me more.CanYouDiglt

GT also has damages. But I think it's only on like 300 cars or something. Would be better if it had damages on all vehicles.

You can't show the truth about a game's graphics with photos.

I was expecting a gameplay video or something, not screencaps. What a waste of time.
