Default Forza III demo is OUT

Big graphical upgrade, the in car shots look fantastic.

I love the new circuit, but I don't think it would get FIA certification.

Oh and I've already landed in the top 6% in the leader boards....

shit, took 2 hours 20 min. to download. automatic, manual, and manual with clutch shifting options. graphics much better. scenery much better.simulation much better. theres a re-wind button if you mess up a turn. not a fan but well see. not a fan of the gauges but a new in car view which i like. demo makes me want to buy it.

I'm loving the demo, The flying lizard Porsche was a blast to drive...and it will be at petit le mans this weekend

I also really like the rewind feature, it was cool to retry a corner if you went into it too hot.

The demo is great. Not sure what i completely think. The handling almost seems a little dumbed down to me. Ill have to go play it some more right now. I will definately be buying the game. looking forward to the veyron and the 458 italia

I played Forza 1 and racing games arent for me anymore. The last racing game I played before that was GT3.

Its eye candy though

Its not going to be - which is bullshit. Turn 10 said they were having "glitches" and couldn't get it to work - funny because they sure figured it out in a ton of other, older games (GT5, TDU unlimited, etc).
