It's actually hats to say because I haven't played it on so long, and I remember being blown away at the time so my expectations are high... So it looks great, but that's kinda how I remember it, so I'm not blown away or anything.

My Forza 6 preorder is auto-updating, so maybe it's downloading this 12.67 GB demo itself.

Forza 6 demo is up, quick play this morning. It looks fabulous, silky smooth with the great texture detail we've seen in the caps, AA seems to be the same as Forza 5(2xAA). Quick things I noticed, rumble trigger activity seems more subdued, the tyre and breaking sounds sound even better with far better use of surround channels, I've had AI overcook turns so the drivatar system is still there and working well.

Demo is a separate download madmya, you need to grab it from the store.

I'll be downloading the Forza 6 demo tonight.

Can't wait to see it look just as good as this!

Spent more time with the demo, loving the high AF in this, the road textures look really sharp. The indie race is the most intense sensation of speed I've experienced wow! The wet weather racing is like nothing else we've seen, the 3d puddles give that real sense of racing in the rain, the way the car hydroplanes over them, sensational. :up:

The road textures looked very flat to me, very sharp but smooth looking rather than chunky bitumen.

The puddles really fuck you up, there is one on particular which is all the way across the road at the start of a turn, makes you over shoot the corner!

Forza 6 demo is what I expected Forza 5 to have been.

I can forgive console gaming for a while now. Thanks M$, you're good guys.

The water puddles will be fun in multiplayer (pushing people into puddles and causing them to spin out or overshoot a corner) but I found the puddles to be more like something that should be in Horizon rather than vanilla Forza. Surely the drainage on tracks can't be that appalling, and in any case a race would be red flagged at that point.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, no race would go ahead in such dangerous conditions... The amount of water laying about is ridiculous, they really over did it

Thanks for showing the great AF the game has. :up:

Every racing game so far on consoles has lacked good AF which for a genre that has you staring at off angle surfaces the majority of the time is sorely needed. Game looks sharp and you can appreciate that sharpness with the silky smooth 60fps. :D

Not hard when the textures on the tiles is shit. Looks like vasaline smudged by the passenger wheel. And where's the spectators? Track looks bland as fuck, something you were quick to criticise DC for. :lol:

The blue building in the background looks like a cardboard box in Metal Gear. Is Big Boss under there somewhere?

2D windows are the new 2D rims.

There'll be better looking racing games. I'd rather the extra CPU power goes towards physics. Those damn puddles... they fuck you up.

Candy, don't mention the lack of deformation in the puddles or people will really have a go at you.

Sorry candy, project cars tracks look far worse than forza. The track detail in that game is terrible by comparison.

DC had no AF which made things look far worse imo (1080p means nothing when everything is blurred to shit in front of you), as for spectators they're on the other side of the track in the stadiums, the game has plenty of spectators there, 3d ones, cry more. :lol:
