Forza Motorsport

Man, we are only 2-3 weeks away from the release of this title. Will it be the Gran Tursimo killer its hyped up to be??? Well we all shall see in early May.

I can't wait for this game!!!!!!!! It comes out on my birthday (May 4th). So while I'll probably get lots of geriactric pills and a few packs of depends since I am getting sooo old (33...LOL!), this will definitely be on my birthday wish list. (Hint! Hint! To my wife!)

Who else is picking this one up?

[Sam-XBA]

i believe it will be a GT killer, im really hyped for it... graphicallybetter than GT, and more of a sim than anything ekse!!

[CrazyCougar]

Yeah I have seen several side by side photo comparisons of both games at the same exact spot on Laguna Seca. And I have to say that even the unfinished version of Forza looks better than GT4. And I have always been a Gran Turismo fan. So I definitely cant wait for this one.

[mattgame]

I hope so because GT4 was overhyped. I need it to kick GT4's ass!

[CarGuy]

It wont be hard for it to be a GT killer in my book. I bought GT4 and I've barely played it..

[Exprit]

I'm also really looking forward to this one !!!

Bye bye Gran Turismo ! :rofl:

If you read this month's "Popular Science" they compare FM to the real thing. They get 2 professional drivers and get them to play the game, then take out the real life cars on the real life track. The results were amazing. The game is amazing. Apparently teh one guy set a new best score (best as in better than the dev's had managed) on his 2nd run. Becaus eh edidn't need to learn he could just drive.

Wow - there's so many people with birthdays in May... - Mine's the 3rd of may - same day as James Brown's - the "Godfather of Soul", and I swear, i've got a friend for more than half the days in may that have a birthday in May.

[Fanobills]

I really like this game - the demo that I tried didn't really do it any justice - I decided to rent it, and now I'm hooked.

My one gripe is that you can't really mess with the exteriors of certain cars (like the Lotuses - I wanted to make my Lotus Exige look like the Lotus Sport Exige Race car).

BTW, if you supe up the Lotus Exige and Elise, they are some serious @$$ kickers.

This is my favorite racer period, and prolly second only to halo 1 in xbox games.
