BTW... the headset is not necessary to play on Live! but it certainly makes it more fun... Last night about 11:30 we switched in to full laugh riot mode discussing the encroachment of role playing elements in to driving games...
About that time I tried to out break a faster car going in to a hairpin, failed, tagged his passenger door and spun into the weeds. He said "Ha! I foiled your +5 carbon fiber brakes by defending with my +8 reinforced door panel!"
Some of you may get this. You're probably better off if you don't.

Depends... when's the Open House at the tailchaser household? :afro:Originally Posted by tailchaser
May 30th is my birthday and the wife has clear instructions that it what I want.
I would like to include a specific steering wheel for her to get me but I'm worried about the lack of forced feedback. Would I just be wasting money with an X-box steering wheel?
Right now I'm playing Project Gotham Racing 2. That game will still be fun for 4 player action.
4 player? Meh. Get online. It is your birthday, after all...

That X-box is already the time sucking machine from Hell. (Or heaven, depends on who you talk to.) I can't justify the time I'd spend playing video games if at any time I could pick it up and play against other people.
I held out on X-box live when they released Halo 2, I'm going to try to stay stong for this game to. I think it might be tougher.
Well, work... ah,er,um..."intervened", and I wasn't able to pick up the XBox at lunch. And now I'm in Chicago for the rest of the week. And then there's this. Should I wait 6 months for the XBox 360? Decisions, decisions...Originally Posted by Kestrel

I doubt we'll see Forza 2 until this time next year at the earliest... Though I would love to be proven wrong. The XBox 360 just begs for an incredibly detailed racing simulator with the multi-core processor.Originally Posted by Kestrel
In the meantime, you can have a heck of a lot of fun blasting around courses in your Ferrari 355 (with your own custom Kestrel Racing paint scheme, of course), trading paint with Porsche GT2s along the way...
Last night I was racing in my 355 on the game's "Roval" course. I had started near the back of the grid and spent the first lap working past traffic. I needed to get around my teammate's GT3 quickly so that I could catch the 355 ahead of him and draft around the oval. He heard me coming as we approached turn 2, and took the defensive line. No problem, I thought, as the balance of the Ferrari let me carry more speed through the turns 2/3 complex. So, I took the outside line on 2 to set up inside on 3. Gee... guess what happens next? Teammate doesn't quite get the speed bled for his inside defensive line and tries to mate with my Ferrari through turn 2. As we exited turn 3 side by side, I backed off the gas for a split second so I could track right for a high speed left hand sweeper leading to a "Ferrari Straight". I tucked in behind the GT3 and got back on the gas. Moments before I was ready to initiate my turn, I saw brake lights on the Porsche. Yipes! I tapped the brakes and turned hard left. Too soon... The 355 vaulted off the inside curbing and careened into the side of the Porsche. I saw it spinning in my mirror as I flew down the straight in search of 1st place.
Human competition rocks, btw...

Where do I get the Xbox/Forza? At Best Buy, all they seemed to have was the Xbox / Crimson Tide or some such rubbish...Originally Posted by tailchaser

THE GAME IS MINE!
All I had to do was spend my entire weekend building a new stair and I got it as "my reward".
Now to find time to play it.
any body have any TCB X-boxes?

Opened the game last night and put a solid 4 hours of racing down.
Unbelievably awesome.
I don't even know where to begin.
A physics engine to match no other.
I actually saw a TV commercial for this game last night.... *sigh*... while I don't want to buy yet another game system..........

E-bay yourself a cheap used one.
You will not be dissapointed.
You probably won't find cheap ones here until the 360 comes out... and that's ONLY if the 360 is backwards compatible.
