In the last pitpass we are offered a few new screenshots of the much awaited Forza Motorsport 2 and except for the slight aliasing it's pretty impressive. No video to enjoy yet but Che claims it's coming on Monday on the press site that got the exclusive. To ease the wait, we are given some info about the upcoming demo (FFB support, some of the 24 available cars...) and a few details about the sound in the game including a real life vs in-game comparative.

It looks great! Just keeps getting better and better. Also, I'd highly recommend listening to this:

Yeah. New 720p gameplay videos next week.

On a completely unrelated note; I'd like to see GTHD do THAT at 60FPS.

"One final thing to note about the press side of things is that we're also sending out official preview builds next week to get lucky editors playing the game, posting their hands-on impressions, grabbing photo mode screens, capturing video, and generally going nuts with media. "

Blim Blim i hope you are on the list, video galore then

the AA is terrible (look at the cars), almost the same like PGR3.

Forza was never about the graphics... Still, these images look nice.

I agree about the AA. It looks like another case of HDR reflections and AA incompatibility.

But apart from that the game looks gorgeous!

4xAA doesn't eliminate jaggies completely, especially if the images have been resized in any way.

Exactly im sick of some on here thinking every game should have 8XAA, the truth is in motion you will not notice

Baah, why are everyone so graphic fixedly? I mean... I can't remember I was talking about "8xAA", "HDR reflections" and so on - when I played games a few years ago. Sure, graphics are an important aspect of games, but still... these days everyone even knows every little word for the techs :p

Why not "this game looks great" or "this game looks crappy".. Why complain at "4xAA" and shit? :p

Exellent screens and a good read on the forza site. Seems one of the things that are really getting a major overhaul is the sounds. I hope we will be getting the best sounding race game ever with Forza2. Sounds is one of the things that has always been the achielles heel of racing games - But Forza2 could show how it's meant to be.

I'm loving pic 4, the other pics are OK, just photomode tricks. Monday, Monday... hopefully not a Too Human fiasco.

wow it looks pretty amazing, shame about the aliasing but most games look aliased in screenshots so you won't even notice it in motion @ 60fps!

Not 'amazing' in my opinion. I think that's way too generous. It looks about average in terms of what we've seen Xbox 360 do.
