Great vid Jube. Sure it will be helpful to tonnes of people. Especially one's as noobie as me. Though saying that, I did make a pretty cool Nightmare Before Christmas car in Forza 2!

"Great" news all Finnish Forza fans. Local importer has f* things up and Forza3 is coming late in finnish shops. Just hear from my old truthful gameshop (not going say name becouse they "sometimes" broke streetdays with me). The importer hasent got any copys from realested date, just great. Rumor was that they have got very small amont (couple copy) those and they are going only owners/workers, and not to retail sale.

Eu version release date is 23day, but not in Finland.
So maybe finnish fans can get game in next month? If not going to order from somewhere like play or hut,etc (as those dont shipped LE versio I need to wait).

I think combining the Custom Livery and Screenshot thread would be a good idea as they'll be killing two birds with one stone. (ie. showing off your custom livery by screenshot)

I think we should keep this thread for game/car/dlc discussion.

Anyone keeping Forza 2 for anything?

There's really nothing that would bring me back to this game...

I was a fool selling forza 1, and my forza 2 LE is staying on my shelf. The outer plastic sleeve is a bit scratched from being in my backpack a few times and it's value is not much at all now.

Probably good idea. Also rules out the possibility of either thread dying because of attention going solely to one of the two.

It's not really a value, I just don't see a reason to keep a game if I don't play it. Especially in the case of Forza 3. Has all the cars I want to drive plus so much more, and I think it'd be a hard game to go back to anyway.

I really don't understand this whole VIP nonsense. Can someone explain? I'm under the impression that it's going to cost MS points.

If you order the LCE, you're a VIP. VIPs get extra cars with the LCE, as well as free stuff at various times. I think that covers it.

Will we need a gold account to continue to receive VIP cars in the coming months? I think mine runs out around Christmas.

Che did say, I believe, that while not confirmed, there will probably be a way in which non-VIP members could access the VIP content at some future stage. I'm pretty sure that means non VIP members will have to pay some space bucks for that content.

I would assume it's like most DLC - silver will suffice.

As strange as this may sound... I'd happily pay for another car porn screensaver style screen. The one in the game now looks fantastic but I'd love to see some of the cars in different locations / lighting.

They're working now... I downloaded mine Tuesday night.

The card says that you're supposed to get a theme, but I couldn't find it. Cars and tracks came down just fine, though, which is the important bit.

Think I will savour the moment and take a few pics as I open it, slowly, with love.

It's great and all to see so many people enjoying the game early (legitimately!), but it's also reminding me how fucking far away the 27th seems-- relatively speaking, of course-- for those of us in North America.

Forzarthritis is a terrible affliction, I tell you, and I'm already feeling the onset of symptoms...

Please see a physician if you have an erection that lasts longer than four hours.

Ill capture it lol.


Heres the video tutorial, its a beginners tutorial. If you're capable of making characters in forza you won't get anything out of this video except maybe seeing the canvas in forza 3. If you guys who never used the livery watch it let me know how easy/hard it is to follow so i can make tweaks in my next video pls. :)

:lol Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly mind some of these symptoms, but they may make walking around campus for the next 7 days just a little awkward.
