Ridiculous to go to the point of three screens. But awesome none the less...

Yeah, 3 screens is a bit much, but it sure beats the 0 screens Sony's newest racer is running on.

If you read the article it actually says you can hook up even more screens for a 360 degree view or a 4th one for a rearview if you wanted too!

This game is going to rock, I can't wait. It is our Grand Turismo. A little more technically detailed and accurate, but with less cars. Great game nonetheless.

Damn, I only have 1 46" Sony rear projection LCD TV. What ever am I to do?

Just a quick "Did you Know?"...

Did you know that if you had 3 copies of GT4 and 3 PS2's and 3 Tv's you could also set up a tripple screen setup in your home? However getting the networking correct was anything but user friendly.

nothing against forza, I plan on buying it as well.
But while in college it was fun to borrow 3 projectors from the university library for some triple screen GT4 action.

Actually Ridge Racer 7 for PS3 uses one screen, as does gripshift. =p

Honestly, Joystiq needs to implement some sort of comment moderation system. The fanboyism is getting out of hand.

Incredible, I've been waiting for this game to come out for months, I don't mind waiting until May, especially if this game turns out to be as awesome as forza 1

keep up the good work turn10

Why would Joystiq block fanboy comments? They get credit for them and they spawn other fanboy comments. It is the way of the world. The only way you can help stop the spread of fanboyism is to not feed it. A lot of people ignore it and have nice discussions right in the midst of flamewars.

Wow, VF5, Forza 2, and Too Human all this summer. If they release some decent XBLA title to go with this'll be a good summer to have an Xbox. Of course I like to let off the gaming a little and go to the lake during the summer but still cool none the less.

@ Jake

I don't necessarily think they should block them. I'd just like to have some kind of marker so that I could tell if a comment was another fanboy rant without having to read through. The star system worked OK, I'd like to see it somehow combined with a system like Engadget's so could could see both the quality of the poster and the individual post.

How is making fun of a bullying and insulting company positioning me as a fanboy? Hell I don't own any next gen systems.

@ saneless

Because it adds nothing to any discussion about the actual article in question. There are a lot of people who come to this site that have very strong feelings about one particular console. Comments like yours only stir them up and derail the conversation from the actual topic.

As I mentioned before, I have no problem with people saying things like that. I just don't want to have to read through a bunch of mindless comments, that are wholly unrelated to the article, just to find the ones that are worth reading.

Fantastic. They CUT the amount of tracks from the original. It's a sequel for blimmin' sake. You are meant to add content, not take it away.

The major gripe about the original was the severe lack of tracks to race on. Excellent, so we now have to pay more to get a high-res version of the original game WITH less tracks?

@18

It isn't a hi-res version of Forza with several tracks removed. It is a hi-res sequel to Forza with all new tracks. The total number is lower than the original, but it is a different game. This isn't a GranTurismo HD thing. It is a new game.

It will have improved physics and graphics. It will have solid Live support and hopefully be better than the original in many other ways we don't know yet. If you like realistic racing games like Grand Turismo, then Forza2 will be well worth your money. It is even more realistic and more accurate in the technical details of tuning your car. It will have less tracks and cars to choose from, likely, but will be mostly superior to GranTurismo in most ways, just like Forza1 over GranTurismo.

Or, it could flop. You just never know.

You could do the same 3 screen setup with the first Forza. I cant wait for this to come out even though I'm still playing Forza 1 on my 360. And it still looks great.

I was hoping for a March release...

Oh well, the more tweaked the better! I can't wait to get some next-gen Forza on with the Wireless Steering Wheel :D

Having triple screen setup with 3 xbox was possible with Forza 1. So is not that ground breaking.

Also in the official page they said it will be download content available in the future, so new tracks and cars will be available.

I don't really think there are fewer tracks, I think there is more. I wouldn't count the autocross tracks from the original, some of those tracks were less then 100 feet long.

And this is the dawn of micro transactions. They are probably sitting on 3 or 4 original tracks as we speak.

"A final thought to keep in mind, and it's something I've already mentioned on the forums earlier this week, is that with reams of track reference data for much more than just these 12 environments, our track artists will continue to be working and cranking out content even after our game ships. In other words, expect downloadable content in the form of both tracks and cars in the months following FM2's release. Will it be free? We don't know and can't say for sure right now but whatever it ends up becoming, we at Turn 10 aim to do right by the community. Definitely no horse armor here, folks."

In other words....expect more than 12 tracks....
