just felt like seeing if anyone would discuss it since theres no topic in here and it should be out by the time gt5 is

I'm definately interested in it, though I can't stand Forza 2 after 15 minutes of playing

what was wrong with forza 2? i havent really played it but i don't think it could be that bad

Meh, I don't know, it feels really dull to me heh. I just like to have a cockpit view in racing games, so I can see all the gagues working, gears being changed etc. Plus I much prefer Ridge Racer 6

Sure may not be realistic, but I can feel as though I am going as fast as my music in stunning visuals. Same goes for ITC.

FORZA 3 has SUV's in it now... possibly taking some ideas from the older NFS games like NFSU2?

I really dont like this game, as for ive never ever played an Xbox game i liked, just seems o be a shitty platform, bad accesories, bad games, dunno how this one will be, but last time i played forza 1, i was gonna break the demo machine in the store so no one else would suffer.

Lol, i love the forza series. I was a huge Gran Turismo Fanboy until i played 2, the game is astounding in my opinion. Forza 3 can only be better.

Kaido is my arcade fun
LFS is my sim

Best 2 games ive ever played, and i think it will be hard for a game to top them

If you want to try another hardcore sim, you can try iracing, which some ppl claim is better than LFS. but the monthly fee is stupit.

driftoner · **Posted:** Sat Jun 13, 2009 8:32 am

waahh, monthly fee?? i'll just hack it lol.

i was ment to try Rfactor, but its a GB to DL like wtf??

Just another interview video, similar to the last one. However they cover a few other small details that were missed in the one above.

Go on the official website, download the demo (its only a couple of MB i think.) and then crack it, what i do. Wipes the floor with LFS imho.

For Rfactor Lite?

I wasnt sure if i should, just incase it sucked lol.

Rfactor looks pretty good graphic wise. I'm not even going to attempt to set it up on my old computer though. either it wont work at all or massive slowdown.

driftoner · **Posted:** Fri Jun 26, 2009 8:08 am

I might try Rfacotr lite and the oversteer mod, apparently Rfactor Lite with the Oversteer mod (more cars and tracks, doesnt change the physics) is all yuo need to have fun for years lol.

MrORLY · **Posted:** Sat Jun 27, 2009 4:12 am

I have rFactor, OS and the Historic Rally cars mod = absolute win, specially on pike peak.

driftoner · **Posted:** Sat Jun 27, 2009 6:47 am

I was downloading rfactor lite, then it stayed at 99% for like 10 minutes then said the download failed!!!

Ill download the full version when my nets uncapped lol.

honestly, I DO like forza 3. It's got the best physics I ever experienced in a racing game.
it's got a couple of flaws, sure (like the "genuine" idea of having a pack of 8 race cars racing on a touge at the same time, try making it through without being rammed like crazy), but the game is awesome. I think my favorite part is that even the slowest cars have some sense of speed to them, which is a first for me in a simulation.
But yeah, it can't replace TXRD2 though

i'm sure that if i got forza 3 and a decent force feedback wheel, i'll like it. Playing online, nice car customization, some nice courses, atleast reasonable physics(i know it's not terrible and even hard core sim racers have said it feels good). Xbox needs a reasonable force feedback wheel that doesn't suck up batteries like all wireless things though. and it'll be awhile till i feel like spending so much for one

probably not as much as TXRD2, since only C1GP seems like it might be able to rival that for my favorite(still waiting for that in the mail). TXRD3 will probably be the only thing that could replace TXRD2, unless someone else makes a really good touge game, which is unlikely.

I still haven't bought the game (because my 360 crapped itself... for the 3rd time)
But I checked out some drifting video's of Fujimi Kaido on youtube, and man that track is *wide*!
Compared to TXRD2 the course is literally 3 times as wide.
There doesn't seem to be much of a challenge, because if you f-up there's still plenty of road to correct whatever mess you've gotten yourself into.
Meh, maybe I'll buy the game when it's in the bargain bin.. and my 360 is fixed

well the old part is damn wide I agree (the one from forza 1) , but some of the new parts are really narrow. sure does't beat some of the short courses in TXRD2 though...
