Microsoft Game Studios has spent the last several months telling you all about the incredibly deep and realistic features included in the game and soon you’ll be able to take the game for a test drive on Xbox Live Marketplace – the rumors this week of a downloadable demo are true and the details on timing will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
From true Force Feedback to online tournaments, from Xbox Live Auction House to the unmatched Livery editor, Forza Motorsport 2 will truly set a new standard for the racing genre. According to Game Director Dan Greenawalt, “Soon, gamers will get a taste of the raw horsepower the Xbox 360 game engine has provided as we redefine what it means to be a racing simulator with Forza Motorsport 2. Whether it’s the hundreds of thousands of physics parameters captured from countless man hours taking track measurements and capturing car data to harnessing the power of the industry’s most advanced the neural-network search algorithms, non-linear and linear math models as well as AI simulation systems from our Microsoft Research Labs, we’ve turned mountains of real world raw data into a living, breathing racing simulator where the only difference between the game and reality is that you’re not risking life and limb when you hit a wall at 200 mph.”
This week the aftermarket production cars in the game are being unveiled, with rare models including the Tommy Kaira Skyline from Nissan and the VeilSide Supra Fortune from Toyota.
