[cray-]

fun fun fun...makes me less sad about not owning a ps2 and gt4. any else got it? car sound is awesome...widebody cusco wrx is noice....though it sounds better when a 2nd one pulls up beside u and u can really hear the burble as opposed to the incar sound. anyways...back to it...gotta figureo ut which button is for teh NAWWWWSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

[christuffa]

it out is it? or did u get warez?!

[cray-]

no comment.

oh and the Nurburgring Nordschleife is awesome!!!!!!!!11111

[christuffa]

ok. better check some websites ;-) for the release date then!

[christuffa]

yeh they did a good job of the burgerring in GT4 too. bit friggin long though! should get deaks to compare them to the real thing and see which is best.

[Karupt]

All I can say is... BEST GAME EVER!!!!111one :)

absolutely kills gt4 in every way, sorry to all the ps2 fanboys.. but this bad boy would be worth trading ur ps2 in on... glad I have both hehe

Oh I must live in the usa, since its not 'released' here yet :)

[bosc0]

can u also put a copy on my HDD K.... ;)

[christuffa]

hey cray/K, whats ur source? cannot find it in my video/game stores. ;-)

[Joel|RSLC|]

its out may 5, thanks for te review K, I'll be buying it now and be playing peeps on LIVE :D

[bosc0]

downloading it now :)
PS all u peeps that pay for xbox live are suckers.... i play online for free... xconnect is you're friend.

[Joel|RSLC|]

i challenge you to play xbox connect then play LIVE, I have played both and XBC sucks donkeys balls.

[DRMAT]

As somewhat of an XBOX errr... personal backup copy NOOB.... if i were to d/l and burn Forza to DVD do i still need the box chipped to play? Or is there some sort of software emulation you can put on?

Mat :shock:

[Karupt]

Dmat,

A you cant download it.. cos you're capped :P
B. you need a modded xbox to play a dl'd copy..

I do not condone it !!!11one

but damn... aboslutely nuts.. me and my mate played it yesterday, we're up to level 16 got quite a few nice cars in the garage, I must say damn the lancer evo FQ 330 with some work is a nice car, as is our 22b sti which weighs 1000kg :)

Its about time that a game actually captured the true nature of awd.. in gt3/4 all the awd cars were REALLY bad understeerers.. like unrealistically

forza is teh win !

[DRMAT]

A: Its a new month my friend! I'm free and uncapped once more! :D
B: DOH!

Mat :shock:

[christuffa]

guys,
where r u getting it from? i cant find it. is it on irc?

[DRMAT]

Try the bit torrent sites Chris like isohunt and torrentreactor. bit Torrent is the SHIZ!!

Mat :shock:

[christuffa]

thanks mat. forgot about isohunt. it wasnt on torrentreactor. should have my copy (backup of course) before tomorrow arvo! :-)

[Lib95TT]

Xlink Kai is better than XBconnect and if you have the latest XBMC dash you can use your xbox to browse for games.

I Halo2 alot there.

Dr Mat, goto www.xbox-scene.com read up on exploits.
then goto www.xbox-tribe.com and get the software to exploit your xbox.
basically a free chip. also known as soft mod.
You will need a few things though,
a memcard and a original copy of mechassault or splinter cell or james bond (cant remember the full name)

[bosc0]

seems Xlink Kai has Forza on its system already....

Who wants to have their ass handed to them online (not like that u dirty mofo's)?

Cool game, gotta love the sound of the turbo spooling :D

[Mickey]

Jake, can you please burn me a copy???

[bosc0]

sure thing.... i have one here with me....

but that would be piracy and i don't condone that :P

[Mickey]

hahaha

Fair enough I don't condone it either.
But I need a backup copy ;)

[Joel|RSLC|]

i picked up my copy yesterday, and I gotta say you can earn more cash online racing your mates than playing single player, i'm currently ranked number 33 in the world for the first hillclimb race for FR cars

this game is definately a keeper

[bosc0]

how easy is it to win cars... OMG, they give them away like off milk! :P

Drifting and burnout are sik bro!... even line lockers :P

[Az]

full house r34 v-spec II, 350km/h.. I would have expected more than that, but hey ive only played the game for 2hrs.

you're not wrong about throwing cars away bosco. :shock:

Joel, Ill race you punk :P

[Az]

bit pissed there's no option to put a 3.0L turbo H6 ito a sti spec-c. :cry:

[bosc0]

the game isnt called Forza "for nut cases" Motorsport is it tho :P :lol:

Who is up for an RSLC Forza online challenge this weekend? 8)

[Mr Gran Turismo]

So fellas how does it compare to GT4, thinking of getting an Xbox and Forza???


:)

[Karupt]

It kills gt4 for fun... and general playability.. albeit its not as realistic and simulator like.. I feel it takes the best parts of a sim and crosses them with an arcadey type racer...

absolutely stunning... and unlike gt4.. each engine sounds entirely different..

handling is very nice to say the least.. I cant wait to play it some more..

For those who dont own an xbox, seriously buy one.. mod it.. and you'll NEVER look back..

I barely even turn my ps2 on anymore..

[bosc0]

HERE! HERE!....... i was once a PS2 kinda guy, till i met my current modded xbawx.... It does everything and more :D

You can change the setting to SIMU on Forza, not sure if it will make that much diff tho.
Also, the track and car graphics are awesome! Decal application is ghey as tho :roll:

[Karupt]

I wish they removed the decal option, and instead added the ability of having flutter.. and I mean HUGE amounts of it..

I love how dirty the AI of the other drivers is... you'll early brake into a corner and BAM straight up you..

it teaches you to do offense and defense.. as I've fugged up a fair share of dirty drivers who end up having all their sh1t bent :)

[NRGIZE]

dam hope it comes on pc or is it already on it :shock:

[Karupt]

It will take a while if its going to pc dude...

Its gotta sell a fair few copies on xbox to make itself worthwhile.. however it was never as hyped up as gt4, so may not sell as well..

[EJ20TMAN]

however it was never as hyped up as gt4, so may not sell as well.. Word of mouth usually does more than advertising. IM looking into buying a XBOX and forza because of RSLC members comments. And im PS2 all the way baby

[DRMAT]

Anyone in Melb recommend someone to mod an xbox and fit a hard drive?

Mat :shock:

[bosc0]

Mat :shock:

yeah the guy that did mine was a champ... showed me exactly what he was doing and (shhhhhh) filled the HD with games... all 160gb :D
Ill get their web address over the weekend ;)

[Joel|RSLC|]

Pm me the address, I have 2 xboxes, will probably mod one and trade one in on the new xbox 360 at the end of the year

[Karupt]

mmm xbox 360 :)

I seriously reckon microsoft will outdo themselves with the 360 by trying so very hard to make sure it isn't the most moddable console of all time ... ala xbox :)

[bosc0]

can i please have one now :D

please...........

[Karupt]

Bosc0,

I'll swap ur left nut for it.. ?:)

My soobie runs.. HARHAR!

I am teh winz!!!111one

[bosc0]

ill swap my right, that makes a pair and an offer Microsoft can't refuse :D

[Karupt]

bosc0,

we're talking about swapping both ur ballini's now ?

done and done ! I'll just house jack you and steal the xb0w..

[bosc0]

nah man, one from each side of the Echuca..... bad mutha's!

who's up for some system link online forza this weekend? :D

[Karupt]

I'd like to... but Imma be driving my liberty... zoooo chaaaaa !

mmmm yes :)

[Lib95TT]

Hopefully get the game today and need a week to setup a car then maybe we can arrange some online RSLC event.
Anybody up for Virtual cruise/race on xlink.
Does the Headset work in Forza.

Karupt what was the problem with you car in the end.

[Karupt]

Lib95TT,

The first cause of problems was the alternator causing huge RF interference causing the ecu sensors to go haywire, got that sorted.. then from that it had fouled the plugs beyond belief..

however in its previous tune state it didn't have enough fuel at certain load points to clean them up.. so my tuner came out, adjusted mixtures.. we took it for a few hits and wolah ! she runs :)

[Lib95TT]

I had a corolla which had the mixtures really lean and did the same thing.
I was gonna mention it in your previous topic in Techinal but I thought you sorted it out with the alternator.

[Karupt]

THanks dude..

the mixtures were all over the scale..

it seems when microtech replaced my ecu, they gave mt the new LTX8S, and obviously the tune didnt entirely carry over...

[Az]
