Forza Motorsport Showdown on SPEED

http://www.speedtv.com/articles/auto...festyle/33715/

Anyone else see this? It looks like it will be pretty nuts, kinda like their own version of One Lap of America.

Quote:

Each episode follows a diverse group of racers through a rigorous roster of competitive motor sports disciplines – drifting, road racing, autocross and drag racing – in a $100,000 winner-take-all format. Forza Motorsport Showdown, inspired by the realism of the on-line, multi-player vehicle customization and tuning features within the game, puts contestants to the ultimate test of high-performance driving and mechanical skills.

Re: Forza Motorsport Showdown on SPEED

Having played both Gran Turismo 3, Gran Turismo 4, and Forza a whole hell of a lot, I would have to say overall both of them are pretty damn good interpretations of how a car is in real life, pending tire choice. I would say once you get into the "Racing" tires, the realism kind of goes downhill in GT3/4.

Also, oversteer mechanics seem to be off in both games, with either being too twitchy and throttle dependant, or not enoughso.
