[Official] Forza 3


Recommended Posts

Just played a few games and never really experienced any massive lag. I had one race where my car would just go into a death spin. I was quite surprised how clean it was, no one took people out on purpose. Still a little of barging happened but nothing to bad.

I did an R3 race and took my little 955BHP skyline out and it was a little unfair but like most of the stupidly quick tuned cars, they can't go round corners that great.

Verrry nice :)

wait a minute... what environment is that car in? Have I missed something where you can take photos in different environments? :s

As far as I heard, there is a drag track that is very wide (for 8 cars), and has warehouses you can drive in and out of.

Ken Block style? :laugh:

I wish I had more time for this game, only managed to install it and do the first calendar event.

Now it's just sitting there with uncharted2 and PES :(

U2 should take about 10 hours I guess if you rush through, certainly worth playing!

F3 is still tempting me but the expense of a new console is a bit of a put off. :(

Season wise haven?t done drag yet but I did tried it in event mode (was messing around and got 200mph achievement thru i:p:p). I?m pretty sure GT5 is going to be on the same par if not more. Where F3 lacks in tech detail (unlike GT5) it makes up in decals etc.

To be honest I think GT5 will be (just) below par, Forza 3 has set the bar pretty high and even as a huge GT fan I have to admit Polyphony have really lost the plot with GT5 (half arsed damage model just to name one thing), maybe I'm completely wrong and the final product blows us away but can't say it looks that way right now (I still plan to buy it of ca:)e :) ). That is my 2 cents, take with a grain of salt.

I noticed today why some people were upset about Turn 10 misleading people with shots.

Supposedly this is from gameplay and I'll be perfectly honest the game doesn't look anything like this in-game.

I'm having a blast, don't get me wrong, but I am a bit dissapointed that the final game doesn't look like they kept showing. It seems indeed very misleading.

In terms of what it doesn't look like the game? The angle or what? Graphics wise, mine looks like that. There still a lot of jaggies everywhere etc. Only problem I've noticed with the game is the shadows on cars. They disappear a lot. Especially when you see in the rear view mirror, no shadows!

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
