    At the end of the day I'm sure it's a good game, but not sure it's enough to make me buy an X360.
    Welll Madduck the most die hard Forza fan is not 100% impressed with the demo at least plus what about gt5? are you going to buy both a ps3 and 360 or can you only afford or want just one of the other? Maybe best to wait until all cards are laid on the table ie gt5 released and see which one rocks your boat

    Alright, enough's enough! How did you get that time!?!

    I tried and tried to get under the 1:06 mark, couldn't do it. On a few occasions I'd get clear of my ghost car, but nerves would get the better of me and I'd slip up somewhere.

    Any tips for a Madduck wannabe? I play on advanced (ABS on but everything else off), but to get a 1:04 it seems like I need a faster car hehehe.

    Worst thing is, one of my mates on my Xbox Live friends list has now beaten my best time by a few tenths! Bah!

    Re: The Forza 3 Thread

    Wow the track selections are a bit shocking. half of them are either tracks designed by a 2 year old who scribbled on a blank piece of paper or ones where they just drew primitive shapes of tracks ie triangles, circles and rectangles!!

    jesus

    Here is a video of the tracks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFGTl...layer_embedded

    And only 24 actual tracks? http://uk.gamespot.com/xbox360/drivi...422&pid=948030

    Are you guys satisfied with 24 tracks and half of them being tracks designed in a triangle, circle and rectangle?

    edit: here is the car list video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLwGu...layer_embedded

    ill put down some thoughts tonight, maybe even have another go

    @ j.o.s.h. - no, nowhere near enough tracks, at the very least we should have had blue mountain and alpine ring back. pay-for dlc no doubt counting ribbons as tracks is pathetic erally

    Re: The Forza 3 Thread

    I won't deny I'm a little dissapointed in the track list, Le Mans however was probably highest on my wanted list so I can forgive Turn 10 for the rest of them However counting the same track in reverse as a different track is pretty misleading as far as I'm concerned, it's the same bloody track.

    I'm a bit anal when it comes to driving games - fictional tracks of any type are of no interest to me - but I have to say some of the scenic rally tracks in there look fabulous and look like a lot of tarmac for the money regrdless of how many mirror tracks are in there.

    In the meantime you'll find me hotlapping the old La Sarthe circuit in my Porsche 962c - heaven

    fujimi kaido full track 16km looks like it will be fun another nurburgring awesome.

    the 1/4 mile drag would be cool if we can race for pink slips (wanders off to bic his head to look more like vin diesel) "you owe me ten second car"

    i already did that on forza2, bit of a yawner for people following the series. we have the rs200 i suppose, but its still a case of being able to count the interesting new cars on one hand :/ turn10 arse so bloody lazy
