**GAME OVER!** New video made by BLKJ SideFx (Turn 10) and a couple other BLKJ guys. They brought back Fujimi Maido which they had left out of FM2. Just look at how sick this looks. It’s all game play replay footage edited together also, no CG or pre-rendered crap. JEZUZ! BLKJ ftw! haha ---

[http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/19573.cfm](http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/19573.cfm) Japan release date set, hopefully US date isn’t too far off, or the date is an International release date… 950 cars or at least variations sounds pretty pimpin’, more so all in 1080P 😃 ---

The FM3 demo was a huge letdown, 1 mediocre track, and only a few cars. I was hoping for at least more than one track… In other news, the physics feel a bit refined from FM2, but otherwise gameplay is blissfully similar. Handling etc feels the same. Graphics are stunning. I can’t wait to see some of the real world tracks. I played it back to back with FM2, and it makes FM2 look like GT1… The level of detail is at a whole new level. ---

^ If you have a PC and you want a quality simulator, go with one of the options that Mike suggested. It really is the better option. ---

I really really want to try iracing, i probably will over winter when i wont be driving my 240 lol… ill need something to keep me busy. The surface realism and supposedly perfect track recreation + supposed level of realism/physics has me convinced. I just wish they had a 240sx LOL. ---

PC will always have the best graphics and usually golden games that bring next gen stuff, that is if you got the powerful hardware to back it up…like I do;) lmao…hahah! Live for Speed needs a graphics update! I used to play RACER…www.racer.nl and they got a community at racesimcentral as well, love the open development of cars and tracks. ---

ive had live for speed since the early alpha… its improved much but honestly its out of date by today’s standards in every respect sim-wise and graphic-wise. Just recently they had a slight physics update (different tyre model and math, etc…) but meh… the graphics are definetely out dated BUT they did slightly update it since the first few versions. OH AND for those that care, a while back some guys came out with illegal mods which add new cars INCLUDING the s13, s14 and s15, not on the official site… but its been moded finally in this respect. ---
