It's Microsoft's turn to show off a bit with these new images of Forza Motorsport 3. If watching impressive screens never gets old, let's hope we can soon see some direct feed videos made in Turn 10.
Update: 10 images added.

Hopefully they don't look "sub-par" in 250 km/h, which is what matters (and the gameplay videos looks fine).

The cars look excellent, but they environment is kind of boring. And they blur everything out. The road looks fine, but it's the grass. It sticks out like a sore thumb :(

honestly you're missing the point of racing games if you're looking at the backgrounds. all that matters is the cars. this is not a 'sunday afternoon cruise' game.

oh, not again, bullshot screens!

and why those cars look like they were made from plastic?

and like i said in the past posts

Forza 3: No weather, night racing, or rally

http://www.gamezine.co.uk/news/game-types/driving-and-racing/forza-3-no-weather-night-racing-or-rally-$1310204.htm

No weather, No night racing = NO buy.

every realistic game in this gen has day and night, and changing weather, how come this game hasn't?

E3 screens look better than these. IMO from screen to screen this game looks worse.

BTW People who say/said that F3 cars look better or look almost like GT cars are simply blind.

jUST STUNNING, def on par with GT5 and after such a quick turn around in dev time, this will sell loads.

I don't know but the first word was "plastic" which came to my mind when I looked those pictures. And as fablo already said no weather, no night racing and no rally means no buy for me too. It's kind of shame because I was going to buy this for breakfast before GT5.

Forza is meant to be a sim. If you've played Forza 2 without any assists you know there are many times where it's hard enough and you have to play some racings over and over again (same track, same condition), just to look where it's best to throttle down/speed up and how best to take bends. This shouldn't be an excuse, but i think it would be to hard if you are even confronted with weather effects (real simulated physics, not just gfx).

They don't look worse, but they seem's to be from photomode without any adjustments. For example, you really good see that exposure time is very long, because of the blured wheels.

Looks great but there's something about it that looks fake, not sure what though. Still, can't wait to play it!

You're clearly looking at different pictures if you think those backgrounds look sub-par.
