Downloaded straight to my iPhone by 1am last night, rapido. Quality looks pretty darn good on the screen, never seen a movie on it before.
Might save it for a train journey or something one day, heard it was utter poo but probably good for a 90 minute laugh.
Only if for whatever reason, GAME are cheaper than an online store in the first place...which I've rarely found to be the case. Amazon (who are annihilating the likes of Play and Game with their pricing lately) are usually at least £5 cheaper per game anyway.
We bought an Arcade, used it for 2 days before we had to buy a hard-drive. Many things (that they don't even mention on the game boxes sometimes) are completely unusable without an HD. Forza 3 for example, has loads of content (cars and tracks) on an additional disk which has to be installed...
It's a crummy deal, but worth using if you do ever buy something in there. Over many years (my card is beyond ancient) I collected enough to pick up GTA4 for the 360 for free last week, bonus :)
Started using manual recently although it's not gaining me a great deal of time. I just need to accept the fact that I'm not very quick ;)
I assume we aren't making any mods/adjustments to the car whatsoever?
Will give this a go shortly. I switched off ABS about two weeks ago and will never go back, the trigger has just enough travel to make it fantastically progressive and far more rewarding/enjoyable than just mashing the brakes with ABS.
Having tried a few racers since playing Forza 3 a lot, I'm amazed at how dull other games feel now. It may not be strictly 'simulation', but whatever they've done makes driving with a pad feel completely natural, and you get similar characteristics to what you would expect in real life...the...
You can't go too far wrong with Mario & Sonic at the Olympics (Summer or Winter)
...and Mario Kart is up everybody's street, seriously. Popped over to my folks after work today and my sister, 3 year old nephew and mum were playing it together. It's easily the most played game in the family.
Any tips on which settings to use to blur the car but get a sharp background like this? I've been experimenting for ages but haven't stumbled across it yet.
I don't mean this as a technical question, more of a 'how the heck do you manage it?' type thing?
I've had Forza 3 for a month now and still haven't managed to play a single game online, it's impossible. I've tried several times, once the doorbell rang whilst I was in the lobby, I've had...
I don't really get the negativity (the reviews were ok, 7s and 8s mainly) the original was fairly hardcore, this is more of the same. No point in it being a CoD clone, it's a completely different game and requires a patient, methodical approach.
In an odd way it reminds me of RACE Pro...
Not sure if anyone's been keeping an eye on this, but the Hot Holiday DLC is out at some point tomorrow, confirmed so far...

The official Forza forum is good value, love how trivial the moaning is. You can tell the basic game mechanics are spot on when people start moaning that there is no gearshift animation or that the Veyron spoiler doesn't pop up. Nice to haves, sure, but people moan like it's a dealbreaker!
The...
Played this a lot lately due to shingles, so a few more pics...
The FXX and F50 GT are incredible, R3 and R2 are waaaay too easy with those cars. The 911s are more fun when you get to the silly fast stuff, very twitchy.
Yup they've confirmed it's going to be 2010 model road and race cars and will be 400 points. I think the RS250 might make an appearance.
Any ideas if it will ever be possible to unlock the VIP cars if you never bought the special edition? Pain in the butt them being sat there without even the...
Downloaded it, gave it an idea of the tracks I wanted then immediately went to minimize it. FAIL. Nice, but fairly useless if you actually want to use your 360.
The Hyundai pack has the epic Pikes Peak FWD record holder car in it, a nice add-on for free even if it is a marketing tool.
Only the F458 is confirmed so far for the Dec 8th pack iirc, Audi S4 will be available free to Gold Members on the same day.
Any tips for a good car to run in the R3...
The HDMI thing is a myth, apart from the Hard Drive they are pretty much equal. Oddly enough, HD gaming out of the box is no longer possible as no console now comes packaged with a required lead to jump straight into HD.
Only the Elite and Arcade now exists, but to muddy the waters some stores...
I don't think things have moved on, we've just lost an entire genre, same goes point and click adventures, not bettered, just pretty much gone.
I can't wait, seems like a very 'pure' game.
Just buy them in the Upgrade section, no need to be online. Worth noting that most alloys are lighter than the OEM ones, and will therefore boost your cars PI, so if your car is already on the upper limit of a class some nice new alloys will probably push it up to the bottom of the next class.
Just a subtle reference from one of my favourite films (Clerks), I always use it when designing stuff or anything like that...and every single one of my cars is painted in my favourite colours, primer grey and red :)
Great app, started my 3 month trial today but £6 a month is pretty good tbh.
Never going to happen for movies if you think about it, Apple sell/rent movies from iTunes + a whole world of rights issues would open up if they even thought about it.
Newbie question alert...
Where are the replays? After a race I get no option to review the race, can't find any mention of it in the manual and Google isn't helping me either.
What am I missing by not installing disc 2? Got a Cup spec 360 today so only 256 mighty bites to play with until I pick up a hard drive.
Loving it anyhow, my first experience of high-def gaming and it sure is preeedy.
Very odd time to release an F1 game if true, hope they give us the 2010 line-up as well as 2009. Not only for the different teams but also to make sure Canada is included.
