“Right now, we’re just heading into finalising the game ahead to certification, which is making sure we’re complying with [Microsoft's rules] on the box. There’s about five or so weeks until we submit the finished game. People are really stunned by what we’ve been able to achieve with an engine that shipped in the box twice previously.” – Turn 10 director Dan Greenawalt, speaking to CVG, on Forza 4 about to turn gold master.

By far the most significant racing release of 2009 was Turn 10′s Forza Motorsport 3. Thanks to both the studio’s delivery of a superb package and GT5′s belligerent absence, the 360 sim has become an immediate essential in the genre, racking up 13 million hours of Live play it just over three months.

We were lucky enough to grab some time with the game’s director, Dan Greenawalt, on the title itself, the IP’s future, Gran Turismo 5 and plenty more.

Turn 10′s Dan Greenawalt has chatted a bit about what sorts of games the developer would make should it deviate away from racing.

Speaking with Joystiq, Greenawalt states that while the teams likes other games, for the time being, cars are where it’s at for ‘em.

“You know, we’ve actually looked at quite a few things. This team’s got a ton of passion for real cars and we’ve also got a ton of passion for games,” he said. “I can’t seem to stop playing Arkham Asylum right now. And a lot of us lost ourselves in Fallout 3 before that. Obviously we’re a studio of huge gamers; we also love cars.

“I think in truth, if we were going to deviate from kind of real-world license racing genre, I think at that point the sky is the limit on what we would do. Would we go towards a more open-world game? Would we go towards an action game? I don’t know but I think in a lot of ways if we deviate from our core passion – which is the licensed cars that we see in our parking lots and we drove as kids and we want to drive – once we go away from that I think we just become passionate gamers and high caliber developers and we’d want to look at making just a different kind of genre entirely.

“I’m not saying that’s actually what we’ve been planning. Right now we’ve been shipping this game and we’ll look into what we’ll do next. But the truth is, there’s been no investigation along those lines.”

Forza 3′s almost as good as it possibly can be, franchise director Dan Greenawalt has told VideoGamer.

“Basically we’ve proven ourselves, that we can deliver a simulator no-one else can touch. For this version we made improvements but we’re actually running out of improvements to make because no-one else is doing the stuff we’re doing.

“I’ve made my job much, much, much harder. And that was the goal, right? In this version we’re saying we’ll perfect the racing game and start taking it beyond. What other racing game features do I want to do? Yeah there are a couple of little things, very small. They’re not easy, but they’re small.”

It’s out later this year. More through there.
