Demo was good but I'll hold off until it's reduced price. Can't bring myself to pay $60 for a game with that season pass nonsense. I mean look at GT5. They waited a year before releasing DLC, which is how it should be. DLC should bring people BACK to the game, not milk them for all they're worth.

No. They released an unfinished game and is patching up wayyyyy after release. Come on.

Yeah, look at that "complete" game worth 60 bucks http://www.gametrailers.com/video/spec-2-0-gran-tu... . A year later and they are just now getting a blacked-out cockpit view for the bulk of the "1000" cars. 800 cars that were imported from LAST generation versions of the game- same textures and all, and Forza is the one "ripping" people off, lol...
Seriously, I don't hate GT, just the double-standards and blind fanboyism that comes with it. Forza 4 has 500 cars right out of the box that were made for the game- not ripped straight from a generation old version. There is more than enough content to warrant the price. It's great that you can have the option to expand the game or not.
The gap between GT5 and Forza is getting smaller. Turn 10 has done a great job. Personally...I prefer GT5. Nothing comes close driving Nurnburgring, Dynamic weather, time lapse and my G27.
And with Spa as DLC, GT5 is far from over.
I played the demo for some hours now, but without a wheel I really can't get into the car handling. (There is still that on/off switch when losing grip etc)
Normally I play racing games with my G25 but Microsoft just doesn't want to support it :(
Maybe I should think about getting a fanatec wheel, but until then it's a good thing I got GT5.2 and F1 2011 to keep me occupied.
Lack of grip seems better conveyed through stages of rumble. I can't recall much of that from F3? .Overal just a better sense of what the car is doing and a tighter response. F3 seems a bit light regards to under the bonnet stuff now when going back to that older model. Can't wait to try this tomorrow with that new fangled wireless speed wheel

It is better than having no interior view. You till have that feeling of inside the car.
If someone buys Forza4 a year later it is going to be much cheap and they will probably release ultimate edition like they did with Forza3 will all DLC on disk for 30-40$. Forza4 has only 5 new tracks with 3 track removed from Forza3 like NY.
GT has great physics hands down. But with that being said Forza 4 is such a richer experience. They have really improved in every department and jesus christ the sound, it's amazing. Racing the Radical is one of the best experiences I've had in the genere. All the cars sound great and the lighting is much more natural, the demo wasn't the best example.

Agreed. 1yr DLC is planned for 30$. Season pass need to die. Instead delay the game 6 months and put all DLC on disk.
Well if they would be a charity organisation of some sort and not a business to make money, then I could agree but that's not the case. Also nobody is forcing anyone to buy the season pass and just because people want to have things for free, doesn't make it so.
Every game has this DLC thing, what are you going to do, wait 6months after a game is released that you want, just to buy it cheaper with dlc?? if you want the game you will buy it day one! end off.
The game has got great ratings it is mainly becuase of the design choices. It is not having so much content or changes to Forza3 they just polished the game.

Whatever helps you sleep at night, man. Hell, the DEMO was a bit better than FM3. The new physics and feedback make it a different animal. Play them both with all assists off, and it's hard to go back to 3, actually. And it just the Demo!
