Burnout 3 looks AWESOME. I saw it in the store yesterday and I'm not much of a racing fan(i suk at em), but I might have to pick this one up.Originally Posted by severd hed
But I read an article in XBN about FORZA and I will say that it is shaping up to be a GTA killer!

I am not hyped becuase there are already like 50,000 racing games on xbox.....
XBN gave Burnout 3...a 10 out of 10 and said it's "the BEST arcade racer ever made."
it is...i agree. i picked up several games in the last few days.my intention was to play them all last night. but i started playing burnout 3 and couldnt quit. I am not a big fan of racing games..but i cant put this one down.
I may not have much to say about this because I'm not too much of a "Racing" kind of guy. Sure I like to burn out in my own car, but I'm not about to go out & buy the Latest & Greatest racer just because.
I mean, I bought PGR2 when it dropped down to $29.99, but I'm not plaing it like it's going out of style.
They say that this is suppose to be the answer to PGR2 so I might buy it; after the price drop.
From the videos i have seen the game seems far from a sim... It appears to be very arcady and if that's the case it's going to be a huge letdown IMO...

As stated, "the BEST arcade racer ever made."
But I think the physics are still going to be pretty solid.
I am looking forward to the game and every preview I read on the game ups the anticipation that much more.
Yeah, and 49,998 of them suck. None of them offer in depth tuning of your car. There has not been a single game on Xbox to appeal to the Gram Turismo demograph of tuners. So...who cares?
Please for the love of God tell me how you people discern this? From a promo trailer? Are you new? Haven't you been around long enough to know that trailers do not accurately represent gameplay? OF COURSE IT'S HYPED TO LOOK ACTION PACKED! HOW EXCITING WOULD A TRAILER OF A GUY STARING AT HIS CAR WONDERING WHAT MODEL OF TIRE WILL GIVE HIM THE BEST WET/DRY PERFORMANCE? OR WHAT EXHAUST WILL GIVE HIM THE BIGGEST BOOST TO HIS HORSEPOWER? It would suck. Besides, you can't say how the game plays by looking at it. Get a pro driver on Turismo and he'll make it look like an arcade game, but he'll be doing a heck of a lot more. The rendering of what the car does is simply a representation of the forces exerted on it by the driver, hence, GT can look like NFS.
AND SPEAKING OF NEW....READ THE DAMN THREADS DUMBASS. THAT COMMENT WAS ABOUT BO3 NOT FORZA.
Sometimes I wonder why I start threads at all, they get eaten up in no time by people who do nothing but complain about games they've never played, or don't read the thread at all and just post mindless drivel. Then there's the few who actually comment on the thread. I appreciate those people. In future, I'm going to post my threads using language and/or propositions in easy to understand low comprehension level required language...
SO LET'S TRY THIS AGAIN....
IF THERE WERE A CAR GAME, COMING TO XBOX, DEVELOPED BY A HUGE STUDIO WITH TONS OF MONEY; IF IT HAD HIGHLY DETAILED AND REALISTIC DRIVING PHYSICS, AND A SELECTION OF OVER 200 CARS FROM 60 COMPANIES, IF YOU COULD CUSTOMIZE THAT CAR FROM YOUR SPARKPLUGS UP TO YOUR CUSTOM COAT (SO MUCH SO THAT IT WOULD BE UNLIKELY TO FIND 2 IDENTICAL CARS), THEN COULD TAKE THAT CAR ON XBOXLIVE AND RACE AGAINST OTHERS IN THEIR CUSTOM CARS, ON SUPER DETAILED REAL LIFE TRACKS...WOULD YOU BE EXCITED?
IF THE ANSWER IS 'YES' THEN YOU SHOULD BE BLOWING A GASKET OVER FORZA, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE TOLD US IT WILL BE, THEREFORE, THAT IS ALL WE KNOW.
Thank you for your patience.
Yeah, me too.
Especially if you're going whine and cry about what's posted.
Here's a thought...perhaps I am frustrated because it amazes me how ignorant people who populate a video game site, can be so ignorant about video games. The level of stupidity I have witnessed rivals George W. Bush, and that's saying something. Why are people incapable of sticking to subject, making relevant and well thought out points. I've stuck my foot in my mouth here before but I've been quick to own up to it, but now I'm starting to wonder why bother?
Hey, man. I resent that! I'm in support of Bush; just not on Women.
At least he's not like the other's posting on this thread without a backbone.
Great posts FB-Gollum!!!
CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME! I remember putting entirely way to many hours into GT 1 & 2. I know I'll be doing the same with Forza.
lol, yeah and if he had his way we'd all be paying $4 a gallon for virtual gas used in Forza.
ps I am in support of bush on women. Breasts too
How don't care what game it is I cannot get excited when the game is so far out. I usually start getting excited about a week before. Even for Halo 2 it will work that way. Interested? Yes, and follow the updates and all, but excited and silly about it, no.
Gollum, where have you read it's going to have 200 cars?? That seems a little generous since we've only seen like 20 in screen shots and videos.
It was in an interview I believe, I'll try to track it down and edit when I find the source, if I can't find it, I'll post "oops I am an idiot, sorry".
I was gonna pick this up, Burnout 3 set some rules and regulations though, see
As it stands now, Forza Motorsport is in development with Microsoft Games Studios and is slated for a fall release (hopefully November 16, 2004). Players have the chance to strap into more than 150 cars (Microsoft continues to change the actual number to this date) from 60 of the top manufacturers in the world. Gamers can customize their car from the spoilers, hoods, and fenders, to the engine, suspension, brakes and the engine itself. And happily, you'll be able to crash and damage these cars, each with drivers in them, and take them onto Xbox Live to vie against seven other players (eight altogether).
If you got to IGN and serach for Forza, you'll find that there is 3 updated list of cars.
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
I heard that car count doesn't include the same make with different variations. You know how GT3 has hundreds of cars, but a lot of them at like Mustang SVT, Mustang SVT-R or whatever and they count each veriation as a car. Anyone know if this is the case?
ps I heard over 200 cars on a video at EB games.
