Modus, are you willing to remake your rocket knight avatar/artwork on to a car in forza 3? I would love that 
To clarify:
Forza 1 - 30fps
Forza 2 - 60fps race, 30fps replay & menus
Forza 3 - 60fps race, 30fps replay, no idea what the menu runs at, 30 I think from the demo.

Dunno but if it's from a leaked pirate copy I would say no just because the pirates are jerks and should not be involved.SuperÑ said:

As for the tracks... you should already know Sidewinder. Benchmark High Speed Ring is the other (mostly just tracks for messing around on, not proper circuits).

Have any of you uber-talented painters uploaded your wares to the Storefront yet? Took a look last night on my review copy and couldn't see any...

A little help from someone with the game?
When in Season Play, does hitting Y (see pic) give a list of opponents their PI numbers? Even if you haven't yet started that event?
I know the matrix view has an "opponents" button (Y), so I'm hoping "series standings" is essentially the same thing.

Well, Turn 10 made the game way too good and I am going to be buying a 360 just for Forza. I don't think I will be getting a wheel anytime soon though. I have a G25 for PS3 and PC racers and will in no way be able to swing the Fanatec Turbo S anytime soon.
The thing that put me over the edge is the number of tracks that I haven't/can't race on in any other games, and when I saw a Porsche 944 Turbo in the youtube video scrolling through all the cars.
My first car was a Guards Red 88 944 N/A then 2 years later I got an Alpine White 86 Turbo. I had that car through my last 2 years of high school and though college. I sold it and bought a 08 Accord Sedan V6 for commuting last year. I miss my Turbo every day but can't wait to build up a monster in FM3!

Same here, except Pendulum and maybe The Hives. I say 'maybe' because there's so many bands called The <something> these days that i lose track!DodgerSan said:
I enjoyed the soundtrack in Forza 2, but after going through the youtube links i tihnk i'll definitely be leaving the music off during races (which i always do anyway, gotta hear them engines roar!). I loved the menu music in the demo though. Can anyone with the full game say whether all the menu music in the full game is a similar style to the demo?
Yeah, I recognized The Hives, Fratellis, and Alkaline Trio. Everyone else was new to me.Rizob said:
Another question about music - can you set up custom playlists with your own music within the game. I know I can play my music through the Xbox media player, but I'd rather experience the atmospheric menu music and then just have my music replace the tracks that come on during races.

Rizob said:
I only know of Pendulum and Hives myself. But racing games end up introducing me to alot of new bands I never heard of.
It sounds like they just don't have a "Partially Shipped" status that they can use. Feel free to email them, however. They were very responsive when I needed to cancel and then re-create an order a while back.XiaNaphryz said:
I just checked my order, made on June 18th, and it's still sitting at "Paid". (Or, "Pending", depending on what page you look at.)
A brief update on my Obutto cockpit. It arrived last week in fine shape. It's beefier than I had imagined. Very sturdy, and neatly welded. The seat is remarkably "authentic". Similar to the real racing seats in my car, just a bit flimsier. I took several pictures during the unpacking and assembly process, but I'm not sure anyone would be interested in seeing them. It looks like an Obutto cockpit.

i absolutely would. more impressions after extended use as well (maybe in the cokcpit thread so its easier to follow). i will likely get the obutto cockpit to replace my rennsport stand in a few years (when i can leave it out and always set up)
woot! tommorow I'm taking a small trip (~90km) to get my cookie!!
I've learned for sure that one of the biggest retail chains in Greece just had 83 copies shipped to one of their big out-of-city warehouses.
so guess where I'm heading to!
I will also inform my Greek pips if we got shafted by microsoft on live DLC content and VIP status thingy in the L.E. or not.

If live is available on Greece you will be fine.. if it's not then probably no dlc

Like I said, not proper circuits. :lolchespace said:It'll be important for stock car racing.

Really? I was under the assumption that Forza 2 was at 30fps during a race. I was somewhat questioning it given that it did appear to be 60fps. The GT and Eurogamer reviews seem to indicate that F3 had a framerate bump as well, but I must have confused them comparing it to NFS:Shift rather than Forza 2.
live is not officially available yet, (its already been 7 years of ball-scratching) since microsoft is the biggest asshole in the world.sneaky77 said:
but it's not so simple. tommorow I will know if those scratch-me cards with the goodies are included in my Greek L.E.,
and on 23rd when hopefully my UK L.E. arrives, I will know if the content is region blocked.
MICROSOFT YOU ASSHOLE YOU!!
cant wait for tommorow!

SOOOO glad they added a change car option from the event menu. REALLY hated having to back out of everything just to do that for different events in Forza 2.

Sometimes I wonder why I am trying for that 1mil online achievement again for forza 2, I just got kicked out of a game because my lap time was too good and the host was worried LOL :lol
Can't wait for forza 3's matchmaking.

I'm pretty sure I'm importing this from the US as Brazilian Microsoft is bound to fuck up just like they did in Gears2 by not including A FUCKING KEYp3tran said:woot! tommorow I'm taking a small trip (~90km) to get my cookie!!

I know that's the case. But they know people are on live and don't care since they could block it if they wanted. These damn discs ares printed on the same place, it's probably more complicated for them to split into key and no-key versions than doing only key versions.
Plus: it says on the local boxart, in plain fucking Portuguese, that you can play on live. And even the Brazilian xbox website shows 1-8 players.
Pathetic.

If anyone happens to work at the head office of Blockbuster UK, can you please send out an email / fax to branches stating that they are to sell F3 a week early?
That's all I ask. TIA.

A friend of mine already has the game, his friend works for some magazine or something.
I am jealous as fuck I mean, it's only a little more than a week before it's released, but shit, that's long still.

I'm not a big car sim fan as I prefer bikes but I'm really looking forward to this (mainly for the decal editor :lol ).
Quick question - is there a limit to how many created/downloaded designs you can have are you only limited by HDD space?

I love seeing these awesome reviews!
Not sure if you can answer this, but when did you guys decide to put the 2002 Trans Am in the game? I remember asking you maybe in july or august but you said there was no plans to put it in the game. I was pleasantly surprised to see that car list the other day. The only car that I've ever asked for in these racing games, finally came true.

Yea, while the Trans Am is nice, I'm still waiting on the damn M6.

ralph lauren for sure. a wal-martie will do in a pinch, but really, you get what you pay for and after just a few harry laps around the 'ring and you'll be stretching out that faux-leather. plus, chicks dig RL. you wouldnt believe the chicks i've pulled sporting that thing, the ms wheel, and forza 2.

Chicks dig the Brooks Brothers Genuine Alligator Dress Belt
if you're not paying over $800 for your belt to go along with that $50 wheel, they'll know. And it holds the MS Wheel so snugly to your thighs it's almost like having sex with an alligator. You could go with the tabbed version, but $1000 seems like overkill.
