Found some old screenshots from my Forza 2 days while digging around the hard drive. Those graphics still hold up, even though the game is from 2 generations 8 years ago.

DISCUSSION (23)

One generation, 360 remember.

This is what a Forza game from 2 gens ago looks like.

Car models still look nicer than some of the ones in GT6...

In fairness to GT6. The Xbox was a lot more powerful than the PS2.

Car models from PS2 shouldn’t be in a newish game though... A friend laughed that Forza 6 “only” has 450 cars. AT LEAST THE CARS DON’T LOOK LIKE THEY’RE MADE OF CARDBOARD.

You’re totally right, for some reason I though I was playing it on the original XBox.

The one thing I miss about Froza 2 is my 999 VW Beetle.

Ahh, the P3/4 around Mugello: So. Many. Hours.

Everytime someone mentions Forza, somebody else brings up GT6 for some reason.

Because I’m still bitter I was dumb enough to buy GT6.

You might be slightly too serious about that.

Meh I played it and hated it, then sold it. Not super serious about it, but I like to mouth off about it still.

If you are still sour after nearly two years you are wayy too serious.

If someone charged you Ł40 for something you already own you’d be upset too.

I was. Slightly. Particularly since they removed Shuffle races and the online is even worse than GT5. But then I learned to not give a shit and did something else.

I stopped giving shits when I sold it and switched to Forza. Still enjoy ranting about it on the internet.

Who doesn’t love ranting about things they don’t own on the internet?

It’s only second to warning people to get off my lawn in my list of favourite things.

Forza 6 still uses some models from the original Forza game...just spruced up a bit.

I highly doubt that but I’ll be interested in seeing your evidence.

Some of the models are older but I’m fairly sure they don’t go that far back.

They actually go back to Forza 3. Everything from Forza 2 was burned to the ground, hence my skepticism that Forza 6 uses Forza 1 models.

Yeah I really doubt they’d go as far back as Forza 1. Especially with how good the game looks now.

I still play Forza 4 all of the time, even though I have an Xbox One. Even though it’s last gen it still holds up nicely. Plus it is the last game in the series that has Fujimi Kaido as a track! Not ready to give that up...
