This games looks great. I think it has come a long way since it first showing and looks awesome.

Up there? Hell, that second shot is above and beyond anything in GT3. Easily. Is that Big Ben in the background?

*now officially wants this game*

I\'m not a big racing fan so I don\'t see myself buying this but those models look VERY good. They don\'t have that smushed effect I saw in so many GT3 shots. Could be a killer app if done right.

Doesn\'t look any better than GT3, and infact it looks worse considering GT3\'s realtime reflectiongs and lighting are far superior. All IMO.

Still this looks great. If I purchase an Xbox, I\'ll likely pick this up. You can never have too many racers.

I\'m not being defensive of GT3, I\'m just wonder what you mean by saying "They don\'t have that smushed effect I saw in so many GT3 shots."  Please explain.

A lot of the cars looked like they were smushed versions of their real world counter parts. It might have been camera angles and such; but a couple of the shots just didn\'t look right. Example:

Audi S4
GT3 Version(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fps2media.ign.com%2Fmedia%2Fpreviews%2Fimage%2Fgt36%2Fgt_13.jpg&hash=986123a944d10726b71bd94c5f70ab27d2562d4d)

Real thing(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.audiusa.com%2Fart%2Fs4%2Fqtvr_image.jpg&hash=3e87a136a81cc3b27854b83209fb10b901a83441)

Although the GT3 shot looks gorgeous it looks odd. Although it could just be me.

Oh.  I see.  I was never really into cars, so I didn\'t notice. :)

Although the screens of Gotham look great, I don\'t see as much reflection in the cars like the screens  they showed when the game was first shown. It might just be the cars but I think they should reflect a bit more to look as cool as GT3, IMO :D .

Considering those are most probably replay shots I would say they look about the same as GT3. I like the added character models they got in there. The only way to tell if it actually looks better than GT3 is to see real ingame shots and to see the environmental effects but I would say it has an amazingly great chance of surpassing GT3 if it hasn\'t already. I\'m not much of a racing game fan so I can\'t say I would get it but just the though of games this good on XBOX gets me really excited. Can someone provide real playing pics?

When I attended the MS Expo event in June , this was one of the games they showed being play lived and I must say it was simply gorgeous. The cities was detail, there was steam / mist coming off the road and every building had indivual lights. I am not a big racing fan either, but I was totally impressed by it.

I still won\'t pick it up because I don\'t care for racing games for the most part and I hated Metropolis Street Racer (by the same makers).

Hmmm i thought about this game, and i came to this conclusion:
This game better be 2 X as good as GT3 graphically speaking of course. The way everybody talks about the XBox\'s polygon/texture compresion powers it should look way better, ;) Will it play better the GT3, who knows, lets wait and see. Judging from the shots, this game does not looking better or worse then GT3, ...

I dont think it wil play better than gt3 cause i remember MSR being a real pain in the ass and i personally dont feel they have the ability to pull off a game of GT3s caliber.

\'\'This game better be 2 X as good as GT3 graphically speaking of course. The way everybody talks about the XBox\'s polygon/texture compresion powers it should look way better,"

Yeah and just how long was GT3 in development?
I think this game looks great, i was a little bit disappointed in GT3 to tell you the truth, i thought the graphics were nice, but not that great,i mean when you was up close things looked smooth and really nice, but when you looked into the distance, all you could see was jaggies, and at times you carnt see which way the turning was next, did anyone else have that trouble?
Dont get me wrong i think GT3 is a great game, but not as good as everyone was making out it to be(graphics wise anyway)!

Gothem looks great

There are some real graphical gems showing up on the XBox. Imagine what it will be lik efor the 2nd gen of Xbox games after devs have had full kits for a year
