I played forza last night and the car selection and most of the graphics blow gt4 out of the water. Can anyone give me a good reason why i shouldnt go sell all of my PS2 stuff to buy an xbox and forza?



keep this in mind, the only reason i bought a ps2 was for gt3 and 4, and those are the only games i play or own.

Never played Forza, but I've heard GT4 gameplay is much better.

ima go buy forza now

WHHHAAAAAA? That game sucks....the controls are ass, the graphics are not better than GT4. The cars are cool, and the abilty for engine swaps are cool. I wouldn't bother getting that game unless you already have an Xbox and never played GT4.





GT4>Forza.......

does it have a comso or 787b?

what controls? do you mean the controllers? you know a whole lot of companies make different controllers for the xbox, but i do agree that the stock big controllers suck. the smaller stock controller is not that bad. i kind of like the xbox triggers more for throttle and braking anyway.

No No.....I mean as in game playing...it sucks...the car's don't handle right...too arcadey...I can poweroversteer a FWD car? WTF? GAY......

well i didnt play it all that much, and try to stay away from fwd cars so i wouldnt know about that yet

If you want simulation and customization, stick with GT4. If you want near arcade-style and customization, go with Forza. I've played both and GT4 definitely stays with the simulation feel and Forza feels more like an arcade game.

haha, you guys just havnt tuned your cars yet, ive never been able to power oversteer my fwd cars i can use the brakes and get them sideways but i can do that in real life in my vw, when timed on a track with real drivers and in the game with same car same track same driver they were in like one tenth of the time they got on the track. so it is a good simulation and the controlls do feel like crap on a stock honda, but a stock honda feels like crap

I'm back to liking GT4 after finding the Suzuki gsxr concept car - Hayabusa power.

In one of the Suzuki championships I think, you'll know cause you get to race against them.



And by the way if you guys want realism, you need to check out http://liveforspeed.net - 10 times more realistic than gran tourismo. And yes I did bring it up again.

Thats from settings as well. Trust me, you can do plenty of power on oversteer in gt4 with the traction control and active stability turned way down or off.

I *think* he was being sarcastic... but yea, you can. Stock FC on the Chamanoix (or however u spell the damn thing) rally course is awesome

All I'm saying is, Forza is an ok game. The only way I would buy it would be if owned an Xbox and never played GT4 before. I don't own an Xbox and that mediocre Forza game alone isn't going to make me go out and get one.

i played my gt4 last night for the first time since i played forza and all i can say is that gt4 is not better than forza. the graphics on forza are as good, and the BGs are a lot better. im gonna play a little more forza and play with the mods and settings and if they are at least as good as gt4 i will switch to forza

ahhh...what do you know...you like FC's....hahaha

and FBs, and Fds





ahh what do you know, you like rx8s which are family cars that might as well be an suv, that might as well be a mini van

You're all freaks its nopistons.com not rx7.com

hey guys who know, how can you get mp3s to the xbox for playlists in games? i saw that you can rip CDs onto it but it is slow, im hoping theres a way to connect to my pc to transfer (maybe with a crossover cable since theres no usb)



also, will a plain cat 5 crossover cable work to link 2 xboxes or do i have to by the one from microsoft?

for you guys' info a crossover cable is what it needed to link the boxes, doesnt have to be the microsoft one.



got forza and i like it a lot, its a lot harder than gt4, but i dont know if thats bc ive been playing gran turismo games for about 7 years and theyre a lot different.

and if you have a hacked xbox then you can just link them and transfer ****.

can you network with a pc? im wanting to connect to my pc and set up a home network with my xbox being the other device. it seems like i may just be able to make the hd on the box a shared drive and put files in it, but i bet it wont be that easy
