I got Forza 3 and It's nice having a Fox in game. I bought the '93 cobra R and painted it like my car and threw a twin turbo'd Ford GT motor in it lol.

Glad to see the Foxes starting to get some decent play time.

I bought a PS3 so I could have it the day GT5 came out. I want to drive on the Top Gear Test Track!!!! Still waiting...patiently. The Forza series is badass, but I'm not going to go out and buy a 360 just for that.

For you MW2 guys....I don't know how you can play FPS games on a console. If I don't have a mouse/keyboard, I will completely suck monkey nuggets. And since IW decided to royally **** up WM2 on the PC side (no dedicated servers and stupid console type match making) I will not be buying it at all. Up yours, IW!

It definitely alters your playing style. You develop techniques that you wouldn't have playing with a mouse because aiming is so much more difficult.

I'm a big HALO player- any ODSTs out there, my gamer tag is NIKwithoutaC.

Picked up F3 over the weekend. I havn't gotten in much playing time but of course buying a Fox bod was first order of business. I dropped in the Cammer motor (among other things) and man does that thing sound sweet. These are the only pics I've taken so far.

Forza 3 is pretty kickass, so far its the best racing game ive ever played. The whole feel of the game is great. I bought a 93 cobra R, i wish they were only 14k in real life...

Cammer motor+ twin race turbos + suspension and welds is how I'm rolling. It's so much easier in the game

its a great game, but not as realistic as it claims to be
the stock 93cobra only runs mid 15s

My 843hp ws6 trans am only went 11.42 at like 140, the drag racing is a little off as there's no good way to launch but, the game as a whole is ridiculously realistic.

I have played a lot of racing simulators and Forza3 is by far the best. Between the physics engine, graphics, and sounds, not much else could be better. I recently picked up a racing wheel (the M$ one) and it has added another dynamic to the game and has probably made it more fun, although I will say it takes a bit to get used to it.

Gamertag on 360: THZDynomutt

Got the cobra R put a cammer and 490 gears in it and run 11.86 with a big 'ol burn out. Use it every race I can and usually lap the whole field before it's over. Very easy to tune and save tunes for the car, so I have a tune for the road racing circuits, the oval tracks (big and small), and a drag setup. I have always liked Forza, and 3 is definatly the best of all racing games.




That ET is with a manual trans using the clutch. You can use three different settings, auto, semi-manual which you shift but don't use a clutch, and manual, which uses the left bumper button for the clutch and X and B buttons shift up and down.

i just got excited for nothing lol. it sounds like its gonna be completely bada$$ which is no suprise cuz the old grand turismo's were the best car games at the time of release. i cannot wait, as of now i only have COD and some drifting game that is pretty fun with a new edge, and 2 S197s one being a saleen. its called hot import nights.
