Re: Virtual tuning on a IROC Z... (Forza 3)

I'll start by saying I'm a PC gamer, and don't care for any of the new consoles at all. That said, the more I see this game, the more and more I want it; I'm at the point where I'm seriously considering getting a used 360 just for this game (I still play GT4 on my PS2).

It seems like it'd be such a waste, but.. painting, engine swaps, and a TON of F-bodies... grr decisions

Re: Virtual tuning on a IROC Z... (Forza 3)

i just wanna say its totally worth it : ) I went out and bought a 360 just because. I just used my bros before and played forza 2 and always used to just drive the 4th gen. But then they came out with this and i couldnt resist the temptation to play with my car in a video game.

GT4 at least has the Iroc-Z concept which is actually barely known about.

That's what makes it so awsome to use for the online racing! Not many people knew it was in the game so they all think you are either a hacker or you're just really really good. I kick azz in all racing... real or virtual, car truck or bike. Once I get behind the wheel (or handle bars) I just kick azz.

I don't care what other games come out... I'm pretty much always going to favor GT just because they have the most cars, the most tracks, the best graphics, the most realistic feedback from the car, the best sounds, simply the best everything. If I have to wait a few extra months so be it. They have always delivered a truly jaw dropping product in the past and they will continue to do so. The only thing keeping me from going insane are the long breaks from school that are coming up. Some quality time with the car takes my mind off the game.

Hey guys, anyone interested in getting together for a group shot with our cars?

We can send Friend requests to one another, set up a private race and then pose somewhere in the race.

Anyone game?

Re: Virtual tuning on a IROC Z... (Forza 3)

I got Forza 3 the other day and I love it, the first car I bought was an IROC, did all the suspension, tyres etc and dropped in the NASCAR motor for 900hp.... it is a beast. Unfortunately if you actually want to use it, it is necessary to put that stupid rear wing on it. I also found that the brakes are not really up to the job of reigning in 900 rampaging horses.

My tag is CrazyBlownV8 if anyone is up for a race.
