I like these games much more than games Gran Turismo. I find those boring.
Same with me. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate GT4 for the achievement it is - but I didn't have nearly the fun playing it as I did this game and PGR2. On the fun note, I should still say that Burnout 3 is one of the funnest all around racers there is also.

that is the diffrence though, The people that get bored of GT4 are USUALLY the people that like an arcade style racer like Forza/PGR2..

When someone that is good at racing games picks this one up, let me know. I need tutoring when it comes to the finer aspects of tuning.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

what the hell is the bi thing about the Delorean?! the car s a overweight, Under powered car. The Volvo V6 was plagued with issues, and the overall weight of the car was Huge for its size..

the only thing going for it, as it was in a movie, and that it had Gulwing doors.

Hvae you been able to make the 'download car setup' option work? To me, that is a totally wasted feature because you can't tell what upgrades are installed on the car whose setup you are downloading to begin with. Someone mentioned that you can get past this problem by buying every possible option for the car, and that if you do this it will automatically install and adjust the right upgrades, but this doesn't work either.

Wasted feature that could have really helped tuning newbs like myself.

Yeah i noticed that.. its 'faster' and such, but the car handles generally the same..

I heard that with discussions on Xbox live. Some pretty good racers told me that the modifications are, at best, going to only have a moderate effect on your car...
