Can we have 22 car races yet?

There's so much power at their disposal, you'll have 100 car races and we'll be sitting in virtual traffic jams reminiscing about the days when only six cars were allowed on the track.

That's what the tweet said

That's also what EA said on stage, and they backtracked later. Assume it's bullshots until proven otherwise.

Box looks better then the console

That is what I thought!

Forza Motorsport 5 will run at 60 frames per second, Microsoft Studios corporate vice president Phil Spencer has told Edge magazine.

Confirmation of the smooth frame rate will come as a great relief to series fans who have been left wondering since the game's announcement last month.

Official word came as the Microsoft Studios chief revealed there will be no minimum performance requirements (such as resolution or frame rate) set for games released on Xbox One.

"There were games that shipped on 360 that were less than 720p," said Spencer. "It's important we give creators the best tools to create the best experience possible and I don't think that platform holders can dictate what the internal frame buffer size should be.

"Forza 5 runs at 60 frames per second, but other people will make different trade-offs. I think it's important - maybe because I'm a studio guy - that you give freedom to the creator because today, through lighting techniques and post effects, resolution is not the thing that maximises beauty."

Spencer concluded: "Some of the most beautiful games of this generation are not dictated by how many pixels they're pushing to the screen. Motion blur, antialiasing, lighting: all of these things come into play. We just give developers the tools and let them make the right creative decisions."

I hope they haven't got exclusive rights to the P1, I want to see it in GT6 too!

Resolution is one of the most important measures for image fidelity.

Reading between the lines, does that mean its not native 1080p? Could just be that it wasn't brought up, but the talk of trade offs and there being no minimum performance requirements seems to be suggestive.

It doesn't say, but it implies it for sure.

About 8 mins in it's confirmed to be running at 60FPS @1080P.

1080p and 60fps :datass:

And some people said that wouldn't happen :lol:

Ill be reserving judgement until Ive seen it, as will every other sane and logical person, I assume.

Pretty much. This is the absolutely only thing that makes the Xbox One interesting to me in the slightest, so am very much holding out for a lot more information.

1080p and 60FPS is good to hear but have they made any mention about whether they'll be increasing the amount of cars during a race and weather effects?

It really is about time we got weather and time effects. I hope Im wrong, but I feel that if they had these effects they would have been teased in a 2 second clip in the first trailer to get the crowd whooping and hollering.

Theres still E3, but if they omit these then its a massive blow. They can move forward with vista mode etc as much as they like, but they really need to get gooseberry fool like this sorted.

There isn't a "Judgement" to make, it's either 1080p& 60fps or it isn't, I don't see why they would say it is if it isn't. It's a great sign for the machine if we are getting launch games like that.

Yes there is. What if other effects take a hit? What if all the textures are stretched or too low res? etc etc etc etc
