No nightvision goggles???

Can't say I like the custom R8 design. I wonder how much this CE will set us back moneywise.
If I can get it cheap I might consider this version otherwise normal version for me.

like I always say, you people don't need to grab all "lmiited, lol" versions. Only buy the ones that are 10 bucks more than the standard and offer someting substancial.
Last one I recall, was Bioshock that offered a Big Daddy Statue for just a little more money, and thats it, all other games collector's editions were just rip-offs.

Am I the only one pissed that these 5 cars are limited edition only? They just HAD to pick the best sports cars available. What's also great is that we'll have them on a normal version as well (since they somehow have to be use able online), we just can't drive them. Nice, I'm cancelling my preorder...
Can someone officially state that these are in-game screenshots? The resolution is incredibly high. Is Forza 3 a native 1080p game?
lol

Is it only the decals that are limited edition, or the cars as well. If it's the decals, then I couldn't give a shit. I can make my own and better.

Can't see why not, it'll be a bloody GAME or HMV exclusive, mind you!

Oh, and if there's a Alfa 159 in the game, cue the James Bond chase with a DBS in tow!

Yeah, 720p 4xAA. Screens look good, just wish they would use ingame and not bullshot ultra res screens

These are screenshots are from photomode. They've implemented a new Photomode that can render in 1080p (like HALO 3).

Again, these are photomode screenshots, not promo shots!!! Nobody want's photomode screenshots with aliasing and a low resolution. Photomode screenshots have to look like porn.

True, these screens are 100% bullshots, NO "console game" has that much of anti aliasing, that also gose for NGS2.

and you know whats so funny, this guy from GS "BlimBlim" said that NGS 2 are bullshots, but this are not LOL, yeah right.

Hey "MR.BlimBlim", both games (Forza3 and NGS2) use bullshots screens.

Opposite feelings for me. With this many cars already on the disc it just makes any extras totally pointless. Sure, they're decent... but we've got tonnes already. Screw paying for more when you're spoiled for choice as it is.

You just quoted someone who said they're bullshots... telling him exactly what he just said.

So the ingame resolution will be 720p without AA if I understand correctly.
No, the game will have AA, although it won't be this high.

And these are in-game shots, just not gameplay shots. Photo mode is a part of the game.

For an approximation of what the gameplay will look like, pick any gameplay clip released so far and go to the stills gallery here at Gamersyde (or just watch the video, duh). Unfortunately, all we have at the moment are off-screen recordings, no direct feed gameplay videos have been released so far.
