Forza Motorsports 3....finallly some thirdgens!

Well i decided to post something about this new xbox game for the 360..
Title: "Forza Motorsports 3"
due out oct. 27 however last night i read, the date has been bumped to the 23 which is next friday!

The latest in the frachise saga now continues with over 50 different car manufactures and over 100 tracks across the world! The game itself is as close to reality as a game can get. Car physics, designs, performance, etc. is all there!
Bill has already told me the details about the game and there's a thread on History/restoration, we're all talking about the game...
The best part of this game is the introduction to a couple of 3rd gens cars! For the first time in consule gaming (at least to what i've played) a 1990 Iroc z and a 1987 GTA trans am will on hand and ready to be controlled to your demand!!! The screen shots are astounding and practically close to the real thing only in VR! The interior shots looks perfect to the real deal! It's uncanny!

So, I recommend anyone who has a xbox360 to get a copy of this game when it comes out and meet me at the VR drag strip or at Road America....i'll be waiting! (well need to find a suitable wheel first)...

I'm thinking maybe resurrecting the player challange series! What do you think? So until then guys and gals, reserve your copy or wait till it comes out oct. 23
I'll see ya all online and let's go racing!

Re: Forza Motorsports 3....finallly some thirdgens!

Well I've got my special edition package and i have to say for the most part this game rocks! I've already created a player's challenge series car and i also got my stock flame red metallic car! I haven't had much time for racing on the circuit but i'm itching to race those who are avalible from time to time...let me know guys! If you have the game....

Again, I'm interested to see if people who would like to group up online and come up with a player's challenge series format..although i would like to make a few "rule changes" because these cars in "vr" stock trim are pretty bad to drive around, especially the handling on these cars! Making fine tune adjustments with the suspension is probably the only thing i would change other then gearing...but i'm brainstorming this for now...
i'll get some photos up when i have the chance...
