forza 3 looks amazing, im always playing forza 2 so cant wait till number 3. you can shove ps3's gt5, its forza all the way! i mean for those of you that havent played forza, its not a racing game its a simulator. i mean you can do things like adjust tyre pressure, camber, spring boncyness lol etc etc epic game
Forza ftw ! 1 and 2 are amazing games.
Anyone got Forza 3 yet ?
Any good ?

no comes out on friday. demo is out now though
I was under the impression that 3 was a touch more arcadey this time round?
Hope it not arcadey. That would take the edge off it IMO .
The fact it like a simulator is why I like forza so much.
I got bored of Forza2 after about level 35 :(

no from what ive read and videos ive watched on it, its even more realistic than forza 2, one example is they've made tyre flex and deformation in the corners.

I loved the endurance races TBH, ive only got 2 left to compelete, its the rest of the game that gets boring & repetitive :(

I loved Forza, until i got bored of racing the same 5 tracks, and my xbox broke
Now I have a PS3 with GT5 prologue and a G25 wheel, and my god thats good. Cannot wait for the full game.
Gotta say I've played Forza 3 demo and it is very good, the graphics are pretty awesome and no it hasn't lost the simulation aspect. If only it supported a G25 wheel it would be great. But then that would take sales away from the "Official Xbox Wheel" wouldn't it. Robbing bar-stewards.

yeh mines pre orderd, i watched an iterview a small while ago and apprarently forza 2 was 80% realistic and 20% arcade, but to make it fun for everyone (get more sales) they have made it 60% realistic and 40% arcade which is poo! we should all do some races tho!
cant wait!! going to try the demo now!!
i completed forza 2 on the xbox, but me god i nearly killed me self, i actually sold it and then bought it again to finish it.
it is an immense game, just a bit to long IMO.
sold the xbox now, and i have a ps3. and GT5 is nothing to shout about, its a game which is a few years old. the full version best be bloody good.

whats the g25 wheel? is that the logitech with force feedback? i really want one with both force feedback steering wheel and pedals but with a H box instead of a sequential!!
ive got to admit, forza looks fooking mint, just a shame its on the tw@t box!
and they are taking the epic piss with GT5 now, supposed to be out this month i think? oh wait no its been put back AGAIN to march 2010, wounded
ive got forza3 its amazing i really enjoyed forza2 but then my pal managed to get me no3 and i cant stop playing it.

It's the Logitech wheel with the alluminuim steering wheel and the clutch pedal and H-gate shifter. IIRC its on offer at 50 quid less than usual on Play.com atm, cause the new one is coming out, which apparently isnt all that much better.
Well worth the cash, even at full 150 quid rrp.

there's a particular steering wheel you can buy for the 360 that has 3 pedals. forza 3 lets you use the clutch pedal too :d but the steering wheel/pedals are expensive. would be worth it though, its the only game i know that lets you use the clutch

there is another racing that lets u use the cluthc for sure, but as far as i know there is no 3 pedal set ups for the ps3, meaning the clutch is actually L1, which is abit pepto bismol imo
i would love a racing game with a clutch,
im getting a lob on
*Jumps to end of thread*
My mate was telling me that the Ltd. Ed. of F3 come with a memory stick and something else, both quite handy compared to just the ghey 'special' tin case you sometimes get 'limited' games in lol
The demo owns! Can't wait for a blast on the full game. Now...for a functioning 360... lol
from what i can work out you get
15 limited edition cars
vip status when playing online
2mb memory stick
keyring
all comes in a fancy case. if i had more money at the mo i would probably have bought it just cos im gay lol

I picked up Forza2 a week or so ago in a little preparation for the arrival of the 3rd edition.
How easy is it to set-up a private race online ?
Think we should have a PNG race sometime on it !! I suck mind lol
^^^I'd be up for that!!Don't think its to hard..
I've got a list of games I desperately want:
Forza 3
FM 2010
COD MW2
Pro Ev 10
Alas, zero bean-age....

ah, just realised - if you set difficulty to manual/clutch, you use the LB as clutch. been playing it for ages, what a game!
played the demo..... not interested till its in the bargin bin... the PGR drift kudos is an instant downer
see this is where you xboxer's lose out to GT on the ps3
When it ever gets released :(

even having an xbox
i thought gt4 was best game ever, but i honestly dont think gt5 is that much better than forza 3 that you have to wait 3 years for it.
I played F3 all day yesterday at my mates. Got his driver/car levels right up lol. The RWD/AWD cars are amazing. I didn't like the feel of the only FWD I used, Focus RS (improved with mods, but still crap) although the game engine/AI//graphics are immense!
Gotta love those JDM y0 windy mountain tracks! I will have to get another 360 now. This thing PWNs!

Ad on telly looks good enough.
The Ferrari 430 parked at the roadside with the door open, cool or what!
Haven't seen the advert personally. All I know is at the start of a race or when you pan around your own car it even has the beam patterns on the headlight lenses. Impressed is not the word. lol
One other very cool thing is when buying a car a couple of the manufacturers offer stock cars. You can tell that the 'head lamps' are just vinyl stickers as with the real NASCAR's these days. It reminds me of older games when they would attempt to create realistic looking lights and fail lol
Oh yeah, you can have an Evo RS200 also! IMO the greatest machine ever made! So. Much. WANT.

i switched so A is my clutch, that way i can use clutch and change gears with same finger.
found it to hard driving with ABS off using my middle finger on the brakes really gently not to lock up with the wheels and using index finger for the clutch, my fingers all have same power level at one time so i cant modulate it.

Old thread I knoww...but!!
Owning a ps3, I've been looking at screenshots of this game, and it's heavily tempting to buy a god damn ****e box just to play it. Is the customising as in depth as it seems, regarding wheels, tuning and paint etc?
Main question, how good is it?! <- from an unbiased opinion

In my opinion the tuning and customisation is second to none. I love how you can hear the throttle bodies, and the way the car pops and bangs, it is so realistic.
aint played it for a while into fifa at the mo,will have a go tonight,thats if the missus goes to bed early,cant take no more of emmerdale and corrie lol
