Just finished some races and played with the Zonda C in rivals mode:
+ The car sounds seem to be much improved. The 458 especially really caught my attention. The shifts, revs, everything is miles better than they ever were in Forza 3.
+ The new tire data is amazing. I play with everything turned off (except for braking line) and the very first turn I made my car lost grip immediately. In Forza 3, you car was predictable, but in this Forza 4 with this new tire data, it makes sim racing much better. I can also tell this game is going to be amazing for those whole like to drift! I'm not much of a drifter though.
+ As others have stated, menus are very sleek and clean looking.
+ I absolutely love how the pushed the in car camera view back a bit. I can now see out of my rear view mirror. I also like the little refinements they made to the hands and the way the steering wheel turns. The dash and interior look top notch as well.
+ The car sounds in general are amazing.
+ The in game audio actually has some decent music to listen to while driving. I'll turn it off in the full game as I like to hear the sound of my engine, but they're miles better than Forza 3's in game music...
I might post a video of a few laps from rivals mode using the Zonda C, I got some pretty good lap times.
Overall, I cannot wait for this game to drop!

Anyone not happy with a game like this i don't know what they'll be happy with %^&*( i
In 1080p this game is beautifully realistic and the cars look better than GT5 I Can agree that Forza 3 looked kinda "sketch" but not this.
Lighting
DAMAGE!(just for fun I went on and tried wrecking some cars i know very unsim like of me, but it was very impressive)
The cockpit view looks BETTER than both NEED For Speed shift 2 AND GT5 . It just is positioned perfectly. I felt finally like I WAS driving these cars...
Car contrl is suberb as well. It's like a mix between GT5 AND Dirt3. And thats a BIG compliment because both of those game combined make the perfect combo, because of their strengths and thats what Forza 4 has those games strengths
Didn't think Turn 10 could turn their series around. Racing game have been LACKLUSTER lately and have become common fodder. good to see Forza 4 break free from that stigmata.

You would assume gamepad input is part of game design 101 but so many racing games fail for no other reason than poor, disconnected, twitchy controls it makes you wonder what secret Turn 10 has.

I love the way this demo plays, if you up the difficulty you really have to focus on the road.
I can see now cockpit view is my definite camera view and I love Ferrari's. That burnt orange color is beautiful...
Playing on Samsung D7000 LED put the picture mode on Natural and it looks so real.
This game is going to be a beat next week when I get it..

Never owned a sim racing game before, and honestly was never a fan (limited time with Gran Turismo). Saying all that, I think this demo just sold the game to me (that and watching a lot of Top Gear recently).

I managed to shave more seconds off with the Zonda in Rivals.
01:44.915 and in the top 3% (with the Xbox wheel).
I couldn't drive this good in the previous three Forza's. They must have done something right with this game.

I'm loving the hard A.I difficulty. Managed to get first place for the first time today, thought I'd post the video.
This A.I difficulty requires real skill in terms of passing other cars. Speed and braking play a huge factor. I had to get really aggressive towards the end of the race to catch up to the first place car which was way ahead of every other car... I got a little too aggressive at the end lol.

Yes, the sense of speed is a lot better compared to Forza 3. Maybe it's the tire data they collected from Pirelli or something, but something has changed.

-This is a fun game, but it isn't "that" different from Forza 3. GT4 - GT5 is a much bigger upgrade than Forza 3-4.
- Graphics are nice, but the photorealism is just not there. I don't know what it is, but you can tell right away that it's a video game. I love the game and don't care so much about graphics, but I really would have to say GT5 still has the title of best graphics on a console racer. Good thing Forza 4 kills it in fun-factor.
- This is a must buy for anyone who loved 3, or didn't play 4. To those who moderately enjoyed 3, I don't see this game as a must buy.
