[Official] Forza 3


Recommended Posts

What icons? lol Also has anyone got the theme that was meant to be included with the LE?

I was wondering the same about the Theme, I was thinking maybe we can download it on marketplace when they release it.

Same, I don't see anything VIP :/

on www.forzamotorsport.net if you login, you have a VIP logo next to your gametag.

It's nice to see the old tracks all updated.

and Maple Valley still scares me, beautifull track, but oh so unforgiving, especially if you happen to be in a RWD Muscle car.

it's a fun track to do suicides on ;). Did I mention I only drift? lol.

One thing annoys me about FM3 - how come all the cars have the exact same brake squeal sound when pulling up to the grid before the race starts :p

Nah that engine rev thing where the screen shakes for a second is the most annoying thing :p

Ok I need some Forza 3 peeps to friend me up, I fancy getting together a party and racing a bit. I'm by no means a noob racer (although I haven't leveled up much in career yet).

Would be cool if we got some Neowin races together...

Send me a request, Gamertag: Mr Edwardo (yes, with a space :p )

See y'all on the track!

I added you

GT = Pheis

Unbelievable. Once again, Forza is shat upon, because all of a sudden on launch day the anti-aliasing disappears and textures and colours take on a more cartoon, saturated look. 60fps is fantastic and on Forza is really necessary... but don't make the demo and the screens pretty until race day. Totally dishonest and bullsh*t, and this is the second time.

What ?

The textures and colours are the same, and the AA+filtering of the photomode shots where pretty obvious. Especially since before launch they showed us pictures and videos form both photomode as well as a few from live races. and the game looks exactly the same as the demo.

As for colors changing, I suspect that has more to do with you seeing the screenshots and video's on a good monitor, and then playing the game on either a cheap tv or a badly set up tv. The type and set up of the tv can make huge differences in the quality of the images it produces.

Yep, in fact I totally take back everything I said. It responded very very nicely to TV setting/HDMI Reference Level fiddling in the end. I was more than a bit impatient, I fiddle way too much with TV settings and probably changed them a lot since playing the demo. It now looks as stunning as I could ever have expected, very nice game.

    • Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
