AggressorBLUE Member Registered: 12/15/09 Posts: 1315 Loc: South East PA	http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/115/1157128p1.html This is a good sign indeed. The days of head-gear less head tracking are nigh! Also, a trailer, that doesn't tell us much other than that Forza 4 will have cars: http://www.ign.com/videos/2010/12/13/forza-motorsport-4-trailer?objectid=77615&show=HD _________________________ My Rig:AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition OCed@3.8 GHz/GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5 AM3 AMD 890FX Mobo\ MSi AMD 6950 2GB \ 8 Gigs of G.skills Ram\Storage: WD Black 750 GB HDD\All held together by: Coolermaster HAF 932 case Other Assets Deployed: HOTAS: Logitech G940 CH FighterStick/Pro-Throttle/Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals Wheel: Fanatec 911 Turbo S w/ Playseats Racing Seat.

Raw Kryptonite Beat the Kobayashi Maru Hotshot Registered: 04/04/08 Posts: 7071 Loc: MS	I wonder how this head tracking will work with the supposed 10' minimum distance for Kinect to work? I use my 360 at my desk just like my pc for racers and flight games...about 2.5-3' away. Don't have Kinect, but if headtracking comes into play and that's a usable distance, I might consider it. On their comment on the look-to-apex, I agree. I've never been able to do that and it's disorienting. Will try it with Shift 2 of course, but I'll probably end up with the regular cockpit view if you can't turn that off. _________________________ •XBL/Xfire: Raw Kryptonite •Logitech G27 Nixim •360 Wheel •AMD FX-4170 •Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 •16 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz PC3-12800 •MSI 990FXA-GD65 Mobo •X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro/Logitech Z-5500 •Win 7 64

AggressorBLUE Member Registered: 12/15/09 Posts: 1315 Loc: South East PA	This may actually push me to get kennect. Wouldn't surprise me if this "new" head tracking feature catches hold. Also, I'm pretty much done with FM3 skate (jump in once in a while, but not often). Want a few gift cars to move the early grind along a bit quicker? _________________________ My Rig:AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition OCed@3.8 GHz/GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5 AM3 AMD 890FX Mobo\ MSi AMD 6950 2GB \ 8 Gigs of G.skills Ram\Storage: WD Black 750 GB HDD\All held together by: Coolermaster HAF 932 case Other Assets Deployed: HOTAS: Logitech G940 CH FighterStick/Pro-Throttle/Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals Wheel: Fanatec 911 Turbo S w/ Playseats Racing Seat.
