Virtua_LM has released new previews of another stunning track creation for rFactor, showing us new shots of the Japanese Fuji Speedway in late 80s specification. Located near the famous Mount Fuji in Oyama, Japan, Fuji Speedway was opened in 1963. The track was a popular venue for sports car races as the track was part of the FIA World Sports Car Championship for Group C prototypes from 1982 to 1988. Even though the track was slowed down with two chicanes during the 80s, speeds on the track remained very high thanks to the 1.5 kilometer main straght - The longest in motorsports. [nggallery ...

Introduced in 2009, the R15 is Audi’s second Diesel prototype for the Le Mans 24 Hours.

The R15 features several revolutionary aerodynamic elements, some of which caused a big controversy in the sports car world as competitors Peugeot ...

Watched this video straight after the latest Shift one. Shift smokes it on graphics and looks.

Fake looking graphics shouldn’t be your number 1 priority when your making a race sim.

Again, the track surface in FM3 is far too smooth, which negatively effects the immersion of the cockpit view which gives the impression the car is floating above the track, resulting in a dull driving experience.
Also the sense of speed from the cockpit view is poor and it really needs a virtual rear view mirror to make the view suitable for racing.
NFS shift has much bumpier tracks and the cockpit view and the sensation of driving is in another league compared to FM3 and GT5 which are primarily car colleting games rather than a satisfying driving/racing game.

I agree, the cockpit view in both Forza 3 and GT5/prologue looks too tame and sterile and GT5 Prologue feels as sterile as it looks. It will be interesting to see how Forza 3 will feel, I thought Forza 2 was quite fun but I have only played it with a regular gamepad.
Btw, according to gamereactor.se there will be a Forza 3 demo released on the 24th of September.

the field of view in Forza 3 doesn’t seem comfortable enough, it was too close to the dashboard. they force you to build triple screen + 3 x360 if you want to see side mirror, kind a lame. and of course you can’t adjust it

Who told you the FOV was no adjustable, or are you just guessing?

I agree.
But me making a mention of them doesn’t make it my number one priority.
Not sure why you thought it did.
I don’t make race sims either.
