Forza 2 Demo

The Forza 2 demo is available on the Marketplace. This is one of the games I am looking forward to. I've had my fill of Gran Turismo and their indestructible cars and invisible walls.

My impressions of the demo? The game runs smooth, controls realistic (which I like), and looks . . . umm, not as good as I hoped.

I'll cut the game some slack since it is a demo after all and does not represent final code, but I am a bit underwhelmed visually so far. The tracks don't look as realistic as I would like and the cars suffer from some serious jagginess, making them standout from their surroundings and making them look "tacked on" to the scene. Kinda like a bad blue screen effect. I really hope they fix that.

I still plan on picking up the final retail copy, I just hope it has an extra layer of visual polish to it.
