I wouldn't hold my breath. Forza 2 doesn't look to improve and add upon the original enough to get it another AAA score. Gamespot is really harsh on sequals.Wasdie
At the very WORST I see 9.0 for forza, wont get any lower than that. Value will score 10 while everything else but sound will score a 9 and sound will score a 8 in my opinion.

You don't seem to have a lot of time with Gamespots reviews. A good example is Star Wars Battlefront 2, it had better everything, everything. Major improvements everywhere. Where you went there was so much improvements it was amazing. Yet it only scored a few points higher. For a sequal to be good it really needs to do everything the original did then beat it in nearly every category. It will be difficutl because Forza was so good in the first place, then add a generation gap with new expectations. It isn't going to happen.Â

Auction house+better customization tools will get the game AAA. Battlefront 2 pretty much just upgraded the gameplay, the auction house is going to be amazing.Its not a racer sim really. Its realistic but it seems a lot more fun than GT. The game is going to get AAA...that much is certain.Mancow_wrestler
Sure looks like one. And GT is just as bad. I prefer the arcade type racers. Like Motorstorm or Burnout. Now those are some good racers.

Im with ya on that but this looks like its going to be so much better than GT. Damage being one of the things.Â
I wouldnt knock the PS3 so soon.....
Having 3 AAA exclusives in a year and a half isnt that impressive.....the PS3 could easily knock that out by this Xmas with releases of Lair, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid 4, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ratchet & Clank, Tekken 6, Warhawk in 2007 and Gran Turismo 5, Final Fantasy XIII, SOCOM 4, LittleBigPlanet, White Knight Story etc in 2008.
Im not saying it WILL happen...but alot of lemmings are being very near-sighted. The PS3 could easily destroy that number a year and a half into its life.
None. By the time Forza comes out, the 360 will have 3 AAA exclusives. PDZ,Gears and Forza. Im not even counting games like Rainbow six, oblivion etc beause those are multiplat, im talking strickly exclusives. We all know forza will be AAA. Im a PS360 owner but goodness, when will the first AAA PS3 title come out, im just like any other PS3 owner and anxiously awaiting that one stand out AAA title. And the whole "360 has been out a year longer" excuse does not matter becasue PDZ was AAA and that was a launch game. I honestly think PS3 will see its first AAA title by end of July with Lair, Right now Lair is looking AAA, so keeping my fingers crossed for that one. BrutonNYCPDZ is a joke. Anyone with half a brain knows that is not a AAA game.

It clearly was, and you know it. Now, whether or not you feel it deserved that score is purly subjective. People who don't agree with you aren't automatically less intelligent. (I gave it an 8.4 by the way).

Agreed, the game gets worse by the day. :lol:
PS3+Wii, hell even the PSP could even get 3 AAAe's in a year and a half. The line-up for both looks more interesting and varied compared to the 360's to me, but that's just my opinion. n___nÂ

you won't find a bigger forza fan that me, but i'm afraid you're absolutely correct.
it had better have a pretty big "wow" factor for them to top a 9.2
not sure thats gonna happen, unfortunately...
imo, the raise to 60fps should almost guarantee it, but that's just me...

I'd count Rainbow Six Vegas and GRAW,
Because the 360 will have the better version
and the PS3 will end up with 1 year old bad ports and score lower then AAA
it really depends on if the reviewer wants to compair it to forza, or rate it on it's own standards.
8-9 graphics - tends to look a bit saturated for a sim, and some textures look blurry (which shouldn't count because they look great in motion).
Â
9 gamplay - AI in forza was great and I think most would be happy with that type for forza 2, and the forza team has done well in making game aspects fun for the most part.
9 sound - really this is a bogus catagory since it's only marketed down for really bad bugs.
10 value - really what game is going to provide you with more stuff to do, online/offline you'll probably play this game for the next 5 years. The only thing that could hurt this score is a lack of tracks/cars which doesn't seem to be happening.
??? tilt - best racing sim yet, but not much to say since there's not much to compare it to.

Well, I think it is a better AAA game than your beloved GTA. PDZ at least changed the formula a bit by having different secondary functions on the weapons than the original. And it was a good game.
