forza 2 is an awesome game...just like as it is advertised!
 
i love my 360.

my preference is first person shooter army type games, but i like tons of other types.

if you havent played it already, gears of war is a must have for 360 owners. its like, contra on steroids.

rainbow 6 vegas is amazing as well...as is guitar hero 2. they will both suck your life out from you.

ill be picking up bioshock tomorrow, and have halo 3 on reserve.

yeah ive played GOW on my friends 360...beat it in 2 nights..at this point since i know the game it isnt on my must have list at the moment...but it is an amazing game tho!

i got an Elite when they first came out. its sat unused for about 2 months now. too busy with work to even care about it.

well certainly dont sell it..somewhere down the road itll get used and ull kick urself for not playing with it sooner :p
 
Awesome! I just renewed my xbox live gold subscription, so I'm gonna be back to gaming in my free time. Would have bought an Elite...but HDMI isn't that important to me as my TV has a VGA port and I run it at 1080p through that and I have my regular 360 hooked up through windows media center pc, and have an external USB harddrive on the 360 so I can store whatever I want, and access anything on any of the computers on my wireless or wired networks :)


Forza is awesome, but eventually you get to a point where you have to run super long, very boring races and it's not advantageous to run the races on easier settings because then you can't afford the cars you need for other races (like ferrari races, blah blah blah). The R class cars are AWESOME though, love my porsches too hehe...

making my way through the races i quickly realized that this could be a potential reality. thanks for letting me know :nice:
 
i will say though. the paint shop where you can just about do ANYHTING you want takes a loooong time. especially if its your first time.

this took me 45 min just to add simple decals(manufacturer and vinyls on the hood) and yellow paint:

Awesome man :nice: . Forza 2 is a pretty sweet game but I kinda got tired of it after a while. I am like that with all racing games. :shrug: . Get me playing a shooter that you can go on live and play, for example COD 4, and I can play non stop and not get tired. :D

i know what you mean. most online racing games have so many different things you can do besides just plain racing. an example would be "Last man standing" or "Cat and Mouse"...there are ways to mix up racing games to make them a little more enjoyable

first person shooters are also a favorite of mine also but for some reason this time around i opted for forza:shrug:

Thats for kids on PGR games. You will end up booted and "avoided" quickstyle if you tried that with Forza 2.
