Some people do seem to get a tad obsessional about jaggies, personally if it's a fun game, I don't care in the slightest.
Have to download Dirt later on, looks worth a go

Anyone getting this tomorrow? The pokemon person in me wants it for car colllecting and decorating. However I was playing the demo and the sound kept annoying me. The car sounds are great, when you put it on the rear view camera. But you can't drive that way I want to love it so much because it has an AE86 and other fun cars. Game don't do 10 day returns anymore do they?

I love the idea behind it, but the racing in the demo just irritated me

My first picture from Forza. It was the final turn on my 3rd race, and came from 2nd with a beautiful inside slide in my Supra 2.0 GT. It was a more powerful car ahead of me (Nissan Silva I think) so had to rely on cornering to win. Well happy with the photo mode, though I'm sure Pete could do better here

No HDR feature I've seen some stunning designs from this game. They seem impossibly made though.

I went to Game, £40 for the normal ed. Went to Gamestation. £40. Went to trade in Splinter DA. £6 for that. £6?! No ta. Figured I might as well try and finish it than claim £6 back. I think what sold it to me was a quick go on the demo pod, in New York. Wow thats quite stunning. They also gave me one of the pre-order car codes for the Nissan 350Z. So I figure that was worth the trip.

I wasn't planning on buying it until I got back from Le Mans but I needed some lunch and after an altercation with a woman in the carpark who seemed intent on driving into my car I though I deserved a reward for not punching her side window in.
