There’s no question that the pinnacle of racing video games is still Gran Turismo 5, but its Xbox counterpart, Forza 4, is giving the long-standing champion a serious run for its pixels.
The latest edition of the Forza franchise promises to be slicker and more awesome than its predecessors with Microsoft offering a few new additions and surprises, the most important being the inclusion of their breathtaking new tie-in: the Kinect.
The Kinect system allows gamers to be able to play games without the use of any controllers. As a system that takes into account the player’s movements, the integration of Kinect to Forza 4 allows gamers to race their cars simply by putting their hands in the "10 and 2 o’clock positions" and navigating the steering wheel as such. All the movements - be it bobs, weaves, or side glances - is captured by Kinect. In addition to that, the whole system integration also allows for us to take walking tours of our cars, including opening the doors and hopping inside.
Needless to say, the whole Kinect-factor for Forza 4 is a huge bonus for the game as it continues its ascent to the top of the auto racing video game ladder.
Check out another video after the jump.
