Even if that isn't the cover, it still looks hot!

Lack of pictures coupled with the "Skate Zilla High Definition" logo and heaps of mistakes on the front make me think it's a little fake.

I didn't particularly care for the first 2 games, but there's no doubt that MS need this to be as good as GT5, because that'll probably hit by the end of the year and they don't want to be left out in the cold while GT5 sells a whole bunch of consoles.

lol, thanks.

i cant wait for this game, if the rally and all that stuff thats rumoured to be in the final game is true, then it will be the ultimate racing game imo.

yeah, it doesnt look very professional. but then again, i dont really care about front covers anyway.

mcrow5 · 7th May 2009, 7:20 PM

did a search in google, and found this on a website.

looks like a legit logo for forza 3 there, and i must say, it looks awesome.

Rzeractor · 7th May 2009, 8:56 PM

There are actually alot of possible covers, because the guys over a Forzamotorsport.net were having a cover design thread a while back

I guess we will have to wait and see

I thought PD announced that they had to delay the release again? Sometime in 2010? Either way, Forza's biggest problem was the lack of tracks I thought. Everytime Laguna Seca came up I just sighed and rolled my eyes.

Agree 100%. The track variety was poor in relation to the rest of the game.

thats one of the reasons i got bored of forza 2, just the same track over and over. but the 100 tracks in forza 3 sounds awesome.

I hope for the love of JEFF that it has atleast 40 decent circuits.

Not 5 and 900 based on that bloody 'snake park' or whatever it was.

I hope they bring in Watkins Glen, Bathurst (even the knockoff from the original FM), Paul Ricard and bring back the PtP races!

Also proper practice sessions for people to just muck around in.

"oval"

I hope this means they will have proper setup options this time. It will be just plain old stupid if they have Oval racing but you can't set individual camber and suspension settings for each wheel.

stitch512 · 9th May 2009, 11:39 AM

One thing that I really want is the option for a qualifying session before a race. Mainly for online multiplayer.

rhysxanthis · 9th May 2009, 12:29 PM

This will be good, but I often don't have the time/patience to stuff around with all the upgrades...

I can't wait for the Formula 1 game in 2010

bangbang · 9th May 2009, 1:11 PM

I hope they fix the replay system aswell. Just watched a few of the ones I had saved and it's bloody stupid! Papyrus managed to do it right in NASCAR in 1994 so you'd think Take10 could do it now.

If you don't have any favourite cars just wait a week and someone will do a top car-upgrade list per class on GameFaqs.

I wouldn't hold out on the Codemasters F1 game if you're expecting a sim. If you just want an arcade racer it'll probably be good though.

+1, the replays in forza 2 are laughable, you do something cool, and you dont see shit, the only way to see what you did was to take a photo, but then its just not the same.

SupremeMoFo · 9th May 2009, 1:47 PM

Ooh I'm looking forward to this, I love my Forza 2.
