lol, fair enough

I now have a $100,000,000 garage...

More than a third of that is in 5 or 6 cars I reckon.

[J - Rad]

Is there any Enduro races in Forza 4? I'm level 27ish and these small 2-5 lap races are killing me. Need something longer!

[scandyflick]

Haven't come across any yet. But I haven't ventured out of world tour.

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

the whole rivals racing idea is bloody genious. theres that and online multiplayer to keep me occupied well until gt6 comes out, a good 5 years or so?

[kawasakirider]

In forza 3 they had a 50 lap Tsukuba race. I would assume there would be some enduro's in 4.

Played some split screen at my mates today.

I like the new cars and tracks.

The level of detail in auto vista mode is insane, seriously looks almost real. Very impressive.

We tried putting steering on 'simulation', but it's pretty hard with a control pad. Makes drifting a lot harder, snaps back much quicker. I'm guessing that it's designed for a steering wheel, because we both hated it using the pad.

Favourite car so far: Aston Martin One-77. Goes just as hard as it sounds, drifts like a mad thing, looks sweet

Things I don't like:

STILL no replay mode in split screen, seriously, WTF?

Multiplayer always 'defaults' to retarded easy settings which you have to change every time you start it up. Why can't you save profiles?

Overall though, it's a worthy upgrade and I'll definitely be buying it

[DivHunter]

Sounds like you are not loading a profile before going into split screen as I have never had to change the settings unless I wanted to chuck traction control back on.

[DivHunter]

So I did a challenge race, stock car only, not realising it is standing lap only...on someone else's profile. Now I can't beat myself.

just got up to level 40 now own almost every nissan lol

^Funny!

Sorry, thats my immaturity done for today, lol.

[boiracer]

so you guys are already cleaning up the whole game? and a serious lack of long races??? or am i just reading into it?

all driving games need a steering wheel. i dont know how anyone can compare driving games without it.

my brother bought a fanatec turbo s wheel, broken out of the box works randomly if you turn it off and on like 100 times, played it for all of about 5 mins and it was set on 240 degree's, couldn't set it to 900 (using the glitch way so there isn't counter steering aids) so still can't say how the physics are with the wheel

he might get it replaced but atm just looking to get his money back

[boiracer]

wow man, that does suck the fanatec looks quite god, esp the uber top of the line Turbo one. hopefully thats just a dud.

but the 240 degree thing sounds a bit odd

anyone out there playing this on a wheel??

that works *

I am looking a possibly buying an xbox just for this still cant decide yet

I actually did. A couple of friends were talking about it and I thought it's about time I owned a console that wasn't an Atari.

4Gb 360 $200, speed wheel + game $110 and a 250Gb aftermarket HDD $50. Not too shabby to get into it!

[M.C Ren]

i have never played forza so i cant really compare, i have been a gt fan all my life and i hate xbox and their stupid controlls so i will also never be a forza man, im sure forza would be fun, and possibly more entertaining as a day to day game, but in the terms of driving i think the gt series at the moment would be hard to beat.

im not sure how many settings and what settings can be done on forza and i have seen alot of people say that gt5's settings dont work on the cars, but that is absolut bolloks, if i purchase a car and fully modify it, take it to a track as it is, there is atleast 10sec in alterations that can be done.

from the videos i have seen, the graphics are a little ordinary, and it is a proven fact that forzas lap times with the same car, tyres track ect are 5 -8 seconds quicker then gt5 and also about the same 5-8 sec faster then real life. i also think the physics int gt5 are very good, nothing can be like real life but revs over bumps and all that stuff are there, id like to know if lowering the pressure of tyres in forza actually decreases tyre wear very very fast around the track, because if it doesnt then its a bullshit option.

the damage on the cars in gt5 doesnt show very well sure, but its new and needs perfecting, forza crash's dont look amazing and real either.

i also saw a list of cars for forza a few pages back

2 rx7s

1 gto

standard 32 33 34 gtr v specs

4 standard sti's

4 evos

no nismos

there are heaps of interesting cars missing

i have a fully modded

89 rx7

92 rx7

99 rx7 bathurst

00 rx7 rz

02 rx7 spirit r

thats just rx7s, lets not get into the 12 different year and model gtrs with different max powers at different rpms, im not even including race cars, then theres evo 1 - x, about 15 stis

i do like the sound of some of the cars in forza, its cool to hear something different, i also must agree for the first month of gt5 it was a little painful, but once you get going, the different cars and different options gets me on there pretty often

iv won every race and ive had most cars, the fun for me is racing against my ghost and perfecting my laptimes

i can see how forza would be fun, but from all the videos i have seen it is simply too arcadie compared to gt5, arcadie wins with %90 of the public, but for the true driving experience i beleive gt5 is the winner

its like the age old fifa vs pro evolution, fifa sells bucket loads more... but what do the footballers play???

[3PointJ]

but what do the footballers play???

Real Football...
