Hmmm there was a number to call if that shit happened, if he calls it all will be well, the did it to me and my reach legendary edition, wasn't impressed but they sorted it quickly, they don't over sell them their card management system just doesn't update if you change card details so the order fails.

That's an awesome Dudley paint job.
Ok, I put my name on the list. I haven't been part of a "club" since the GAF Rallisport Challenge days on XSN Sports. (i wish MS would bring that back).
I'm a Forza noob. The last Forza I seriously played was the original. I did buy Forza 3 a couple days ago so I could level up to get the bonuses and the unicorn. My times are not extremely competitive but I run a lot of clean races and found that I was often in the top 30% of the Forza leaderboards. I don't own a wheel but I did pick up the speed wheel (it works amazingly well). I'll be picking up my LCE tomorrow and expect to put a lot of time into it...
...but I'll admit, once Skyrim and MW3 hit, my Forza time will drop like a rock.

Amazon has already shipped my LE with RDD, be here tomorrow! Woohoo!

This reminds me a lot of that. I was in leagues, stayed up til the wee hours of the mornings to put hell into the lives of the Brits (so kill me), and I think the highest i ranked was #2. Did you ever play with the likes of Shepstyle, tHe rK, Thi3rdtime? My tag was Dead Pool. I'm hoping I can be even half as good as i was there.
....the days of Brno, Mugello, Suzuka.....oh man, bringin back memories.
Edit: I was thinking we have before, because ever since I've joined your name looked so damn familiar.
SarBear said:
yeah! - what was the name of that community? great bunch of guys - it was sooo awesome playing like 30+ laps and trying to keep up with the fastest guys. i definitely remember Shepstyle and your tag sounds familiar as well.

Same here. If anyone wants to trade the 1M code from Best Buy for the WRX STI, send me a PM.

Really sucks that wheel support is limited to Fanatec. I got the G27 last year so I have no reason to upgrade anytime soon. I would buy a x360 just to play this game but I am not going to bother if I can't use my fucking wheel (why would you?). Grrr, is there some work around to get Logitech wheels working on x360 or am I pretty much screwed? Next generation I will be buying the most cross platform wheel possible.

Oh come on!! An Evo VI, Evo X, Hatch STi and 22B to choose from? How is that even fair???
So which one guys? 22B or Evo VI?

Oh, the good old days! Oh how I LONG for a quality MotoGP game on the xbox again...(sigh)

put my name on the lists yay
Amazon charged me for my LE (only $60 though... I wonder if they're going to stick me with the standard edition. I pre-ordered months ago, like the first day the LE was announced)
Also - I have an STi code that I am looking to trade for a BMW 1M code.

Your screwed.gutterboy44 said:
Thats why I waited before buying a wheel. Wasn't going to shell out the $ if it didn't work on everything.

Modern racing games have got much better and catering to the controller crowd, but using a wheel is at least 70% of the experience for me. I am driving a car, not controlling a FPS character. I wish at the very least a friend had a wheel and a copy of Forza 4 so I could give it a shot. Never particularly impressed by the previous showings but 4 looks like it made some good steps forward.
Eidt: I got the G27 for very cheap with a one time Logitech coupon. I wouldn't have been buying a new wheel if it wasn't for that deal so the Fanatec wasn't an option.

Can't wait to go crazy with this game tomorrow. I played a little bit of the demo, just enough to get a taste of the racing action to come and my god it was amazing. Almost tempted to call in tomorrow haha.
Ditto. It's just sitting there, tempting me.sneaky77 said:
Glad I checked into the thread in the middle of a busy day at work and saw that I needed to sign up on the google doc. I need to be accepted because I'll be the guy anyone can beat. I make others feel good about themselves.

Is the Alfa car from gamestop any good?

Dude:
A. You're a bastard for getting the game early.
B. Fucking awesome video. Thanks so much for taking the time to put this together. It sounded incredible even through my crappy laptop speaker, so fuck knows how long my walls will last once I pump the full game through my amp.
Quick question: is the muffling effect of the cockpit view a little less than it was in FM3? Seems that way. The sounds were beautifully detailed, raw and raspy in your video.
Fuck, post my copy already GAME you SHITS!
Edit: Holy quadruplefuck! They listened! Just had an email from GAME saying it's been shipped. Lordy Lord. Wonder if that means it's actually in the postal system or just sitting in their dispatch area..?

I know it is such a small thing, but I am constantly annoyed by the lack of a matte paint option. I mean, it is even a choice as a stock paint for some cars! Ugh, I just want to be able to create a decent looking dry carbon vinyl and I hate how shiny all the paints are. The same thing goes for the inability to get "true" white rims. These things have been asked for constantly since F3 and I don't understand why they aren't in. Obviously the game can do matte colors!
I am loving this game like crazy, I just am frustrated by what seems like such an obvious oversight.
Yup, that was the one I picked. I mean, it is Bunta's car!

You know, I couldn't recall the name of the damn website if it killed me. I do remember not wanting to get TOO involved in all the politics of it, because i just wanted to race and didn't want to build any animosity between me and another member. As a matter of fact, it took them a few weeks to even get me to consider joining (truth me told i was so fucking scared of having to race for something important). I just remembered my mates, and raced beside/around them accordingly.
I can't tell you how many damn races Shep and I had where we were +10" on the pack, and neck and neck with each other for 7-8 laps straight. I wonder if i can find records of the old scoreboards from back then. I remember I completely blazed Sachsenring and Valencia....although I'm sure glitches murdered those times.

The improvement of sounds is still the biggest thing I noticed from the demo. Amazing.

Very impressed with the sound design. I want to drive that Ferrari 333...oh man.

Here is a quick picture I took of the 22B with some basic mods.
Some of those people appear to be lurkers or banned Members. I am fairly certain those will be removed. Plus you always have more people wanting into these things at first and by the first week probably half of them will be gone or inactive.
