The excellent looking Forza Motorsport 3 has a bunch of new features including its own movie-making tool, but it won't be adding a few things that fans were hoping would make the cut.
Turn 10 has confirmed that Forza Motorsport 3 will not including nighttime races, weather effects, or rally car racing. Good thing it'll pack in over 400 cars and 100 tracks & variations.
What features would you like to see in Forza 3?

They could have at least added the weather effects... awwwwwwwww.

So, basically everything that Gran Turismo 5 will have, Forza 3 won't.

I think those additions would have put them over the top. It sucks that they dropped all that stuff. Hey, screw it, I'll still buy it.
Bossierbob
well it looks like they are finally adding proper physics, so you'll will be able to roll the cars, but i want the ability to make a proper drag car that will do a wheelie

So much for this being the best racing game this gen.

My hope for the game is its got some of my favorite tracks from real life are in the game, also i would love to make drag cars like Bossierbob said, but add a drag track that way you can do actuall drag races on a real ddrag course

How can they say its a realistic racer when you have no weather effect?

Adding weather effects should't have been that hard. That doesn't mean it'll be a bad racing game or anything but it would've been nice to have a couple extra things in it like weather and night tracks.

The forza guys put up a big front, but they arnt revolutionizing the wheel like they put on
I'm still excited for the game but I think it's gonna suffer from the same thing that Fable 1 had
lots of hype and promising everything under the sun, but just not living up to what it was sold as

i think theres stil time for forza 4 and grand turismo 6 thids gen.
That kinda sux, i mean gran turismo FOUR had niht time and rally and i think weather (well some of the drivers ed challenges had wet roads)

Welp looks like I'm gonna have to stick with GT5, which is what I was planning on doing in the first place.

I love forza series but they do tend to disappoint a lot, i remember the awesome forza 2 trailer a few years ago that had the corvette wheel being ripped off, i wanted to have that happen in the game, but sadly nothing, i do like gt but i prefer forza becuase of the damage effects that it did have
capt_armchair
im glad forza isn't going to have rally racing in it. if i want to play rally racing ill go buy a rally game.

Why cant you have both? Like every other racing game?
I still don't understand why Forza Motorsport 2 was such a big hit. Yes, I am I Sony fanboy, but just hear me out. I got Forza 2 for free with my XBox 360 Elite (along with Marvel Ultimate Alliance), I started to play, and right off the bat the controls felt terrible, slow, and unrealistic. So I though, well, maybe I just have to get used to them. So I played some more races, I played against friends, my brothers, and still the controls felt terrible. I cant say anything about Forza 3 yet, but taking out features is never a good thing. Plus, just for kicks ... Gran Turismo for the PLAYSTATION PORTABLE has DOUBLE the amount of cars!

this game will never compare to Gran Turismo 5, i just bought Gt5 Prolouge and its already better than this from what i have seen, heard, and played at conferences/expo's and Gt5 is suppose to be even better than the prolouge with over 1000+ cars and more modes, and it already has night-time tracks, weather effects and rally racing. cant wait til 2010!! ill probally pick this up anyway just to see if it even lives up to half the hype it geting lol

Gran Turismo is so very overrated. The game does absolutely nothing that hasn't already been done. They are also greedy thieves for charging everyone $30 for a damn demo. They take forever to release each one, an all they have going for them is good graphics. The controls are almost always awful. I haven't played Forza so I can't give an opinion on it. Who knows, my friend may convince me to get Gran Turismo 5, but I know I wont like it, and I love Racing Sims.

Initially, that sounds kind of boring, but with 400 cars and supposedly much better physics all around (not t mention all the user modifications that can be done), I do not think that it will be missed. That is until we see how much of that stuff GT5 has that Forza 3 won't (or vice versa?). Either way, we won't know till we play it.

I'm sorry. GT is the only racing simulator.
drich8103
is it me or does forza 3 just look and sound like an arcade racing game. This in no way can compete with the realness fell of GT 5, the only driving simulator.
