You should put the score in the title.

Graphics got a 9.0.

Anyone want to dig up the 'Forza graphics suck' threads?

Well, it's certainly no Halo Wars, as per your sig, but... It'll probably be pretty good ;)

Very nice, I think I'll just wait to see how GT5 turns out before I buy either though.

I found it kind of funny that IGN talked about GT5 in the review. "Turn 10 has thrown down the gauntlet and it will be a real challenge for Polyphony Digital to deliver a superior racer with Gran Turismo 5. After all, this is the best racing game of this generation. Good luck topping it. "

This is just boss. Now we just have to wait and see what GS gives it. Hopefully now that they've got some of the big reviews out of the way (Uncharted 2, Demon's Souls etc) they might review this before it comes out.

Hopefully I'll be able to afford this, though I'm saving my money for other games. Also, it would appear the graphics received a 9. Hmmm, I could've sworn I've seen people saying this game had horrible graphics.

Once again Forza and Turn 10 doesn't disappoint, unlike GT, hasn't been a great GT game since 05 :P, sorry just had to say that.

thats a great score... Forza3 will be another great racing game and surely a must have title for all racing fans who own a 360..

No big surprise here. I'm pretty sure all but the most crazy fanboys knew full well Forza 3 was gonna be a AAA game. It always has been and I'm guessing it always will be. Turn 10 is just far too talented to make anything but the best sim racers on any console.

GT5 has a lot to prove. Lets hope it does and we get two amazing sims.

At this point it seems impossible to talk about one without talking about the other.

O and fyi, don't look at the team xbox review or gamespy review, one is basically an ooo and ahhh review when the reviewer doesn't know much (as evidenced by him mentioning he didn't use the auto brake like he was proud), and the gamespy reviewer is basically mad that it isn't as arcade feeling as NFS shift, so he rated it just under that.

Didn't IGN give NFS: Shift a 9 or something? And GS gave the very same game a 7.0.. or something. Forza 3 is obviously in a different league, but to say that it is a locked AAA.. kinda pushin' it. We can still hope, though.

You and I both know it was not getting a ten in that. The reveiw stated that "The lighting isn't perfect, and neither are some of the damage effects." Which is fair. ....... But it got a 10 in Lasting Appeal and the only issue with the gameplay was the it was too easy on easy and normal and that it was too hard on hard.

Yeah congrats the the dev for making a very nice game. I have this sneeking suspision that gran tourismo 5 will not score as high. I dunno why but its just a feeling i have... Even though i dont really care - i hate driving games :P
