WOW! Look at the cars reflecting each other. Woot!

xrobbanx6278d ago

Sure does and its seems to be in a very high resolution

Deceased6278d ago

What a turnaround from the last screenshot, I am going to pick this game up as well. Watch out GT:HD. LOL

TheMART6278d ago

Oh yeahs Forza 2 it'll be great again. Nice screenshots!!! And they got the grass and curbstones better also this time

Shadow Flare6278d ago

I'll start of saying i think does screens look very good. I do think they look nice. But i gotta give the other end of the arguement. And I'm purely saying this as a comparison between Gran Turismo and Forza. I still think Forza 2 looks great

Forza has always had this certain look about it that never quite looks...real. Bear with me, i'll explain.

Yes, the graphics look good. But the cars never look like, there ACTUALLY there. With Gran Turismo 4, Polyphony Digital actually touched down the sharpness on the cars, because they wanted to make the cars look like they were actually driving on the track. And the end effect was fantastic. Even with Forza 2, yeah the cars look great, but does it look like something you'd see if you popped your head out the bedroom window? Like every Xbox 360 racer, the vehicles are VERY shiny, VERY sharp, and because of that, they never look like they are really there on the track.

Compare this picture from GTHD with ANY of the pictures of Forza 2 and you'll notice the difference:

The car actually looks like its there.

And look at image 5 of the Forza 2 images, geez

But I'm purely saying this as a comparison between Gran Turismo and Forza. I still think Forza 2 looks great

TR0N6278d ago

with you, GT looks more "photo-realistic" but i would say that overall Forza is the better game.

Shadow Flare6278d ago

Well neither games are released yet so we don't know what game will be better

However, I'm fairly confident Forza 2 will be a better game than GTHD. Purely because GTHD is not a proper game, it's more of a quick fix of Gran Turismo for PS3.

The real test will be when Gran Turismo 5 is released and personally, i think GT5 will slaughter Forza 2.

GT5 also has car damage. And when Polyphony Digital want to do something, they want to do it perfectly. So expect the car damage to be incredible in GT5. Unlike the forza series which has crap car damage, just as the excuse so they can say, "This game has car damage". In Forza, you go like 150mph into a wall, and the front bumper snaps off. *Clap* *Clap* well done guys

It's Gran Turismo 5 for me

Deceased6278d ago

That screenshot you have a link for looks awesome, I hope it looks like that in real time.

cosmoracer6277d ago

I am a big xbox fan, but I gotta say, GT looks sooo much better. It's not just the cars. It almost looks like PS3 is using photos and overlaying them on polygons. Also, look a the roads. Every inch looks better on GT. Also, the terain on GT looks seemless.

However, on the PS3 has anyone else noticed that they heavily use motion blur whenever there is quick movements on the screen? I think it is some technique to avoid a drop in framerate. It definately looks better than a drop in framerate, however, it doesn't look quite right either.

Ive played all GT games 3 and 4 and i won,t be getting gt hd why just because it will have a little better graphics over the ps2 version, its best if you say GT5 V Forza 2 or 3 - but not gt hd lol.

Anyway forza 2 is a must buy for me.

IM OUT.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?

DrDoomer2d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog1d 22h ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned2d ago

I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*

Husker42c2d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb1d 20h ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

DeusFever2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.

Abnor_Mal2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.

The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.

darthv721d 14h ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman1d 21h ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos1d 6h ago (Edited 1d 6h ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows1d 4h ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
