Nice pics. God those 1Ms are so awesome. Lol.
For those getting a bit excited by the images and running out to buy an xbox, it's worth noting, before getting carried away by the thread, that these are heavily resampled pictures. Gameplay isn't going to look anywhere near as good. Not unless we're now running 8k resolutions and no one has told me
Still a stunning game though for sure, but a bit of expectation management is in order before rushing out to buy a console off the back of some slightly misrepresentative screen caps.
The in-game screen caps are representative-ish. LOL! They simply switch to high-LOD models in camera mode and then apply the various shader effects on top to simulate the motion blur, DoF, vignetting and so forth. The tech used to produce the 'photos' could arguably be used in realtime in-game (at least to some degree) but I'm not sure I'd want to play with so much blur, bokeh, etc. Ow my eyes... LOL!Nice pics. God those 1Ms are so awesome. Lol.

It's not too bad really. Sure, there's some shimmering on high frequency texture details and suchlike but I don't think it's half as bad as media reports suggest. Graphically, for a launch title, I think it is nicely done. Gameplay-wise... I'm not convinced. As much as it pains me I personally feel this is the weakest Forza yet. Certainly not a bad game, but somehow... unpolished and a bit clunky. And for the first time in my life a game that has caused me to have rage fits due to the f**king stupid behaviour of the drivatards! I've given up trying to race 'clean' as it's virtually impossible to do so unless you turn the AI down to 'dumbass' level.I've not had my hands on the game in person but the general comments seem to be it's a bit of a jaggy/AA fest in motion.
Exactly, which is why I said...lol Andy! The amount of sampling they put in the photos would bring the console to a crawl, you knows it .
The effects used for the screen caps aren't all that far removed from ones that are already used in the game, just with a LOT more passes and more complex implementations.The in-game screen caps are representative-ish.

I uploaded mine to SkyDrive directly from the console, and then downloaded the movie file to my PC from SkyDrive. Then uploaded that to YouTube.How did you get it on youtube? Is there a way we can view the Upload Studio videos online ? I tried to find mine but couldnt find it!
