    Inside Sim Racing Special Report E3

    Shaun, Darin and Jessica visited the E3 expo and did an extensive report featuring various racing games:

    - RACE On (PC)
    - Forza 3 (Xbox 360)
    - Gran Turismo 5 (PSP)

    Ofcourse the fans are looking out for the Forza 3 game and Shaun and Darin find it fantastic again but I have to be a little more sceptical based on what they show us. The response of the wheel seems terribly slow as you can see 10 minutes into the show, and if thats that the final version of the game I don't think many simracers, that want to drive the game with a wheel will be interested in it. Maybe I am wrong and it is just the TV recording that causes the slowmotion in the response. Judge it yourself, what do you think?

    SRT already said it's bad synchro between monitor and camera. It's not lag.

    I'm sure about that as my Fanatec has no lag at all

    And think yourself, would driving with terrible lag not be very very very very hard? If that was the case he would've made much more mistakes.

    I have no clue, first need to have the game to make a proper judgement.

    But how can a game like need for speed be up there on the same level like the real sims around here, like they say...

    And about Forza, i don't even listen anymore...

    You guys know about the poll that was around on the net, not in this forum, a poll that was totally bribed by Forza makers by promising a special car to all who will vote for Forza 3???... Common now...

    Have you seen how they talked about it on E3??? Makes me puke.
    Microsoft people always go for the money, not the passion nor vision... That's wy here in Belgium Bill Gates will allways have a pie into his face...

    What i want to say is that i checked all episodes and i have the feeling they're biased,... or bribed with the same stupid promise: an R8 in a special racing liverie exlusive on Forza3, pathetic!:thinking:
