I still haven’t come close to filling my HDD, and since my Xbox is wirelessly connected to my computers at home, there is know reason to complain about it.

True. While bigger would definately be better… the 360 is still worlds better than the PS3.

The lack of rumble in the controllers alone is enough to make me not want to buy a PS3. ☹ How the hell am I supposed to play any driving games without any feedback?

I think i forgot to mention that gamestop is offering a deal right now where you trade your PS2,a controller and a memory card in and you get $100 off a PS3 (20 & 60).Saw the poster at easter hills mall.

I know, I’m seriously thinking getting one instead of a PS3. I love PGR3, though I hated Forza, and it’s got Halo 3 and MotoGP. I just wish F1 2006 was on 360 ☹

Do they have Nurburgring on GTHD? It plays a significant role in my choices on this, that is a track where you HAVE to feel the bumps.

Enjoy playing with the stupid 360 controller, unless they have written in G25 support.
Plus no mods, which means no Watkins Glen, no Mosport, no Road America, no Suzuka, no Daytona, no Sears Point, no Laguna Seca, no Barber Motorsports Park, no VIR, no Nurburgring, no LeMans, and on and on and on…

I know it won’t be anywhere near as good as the PC version. Its still nice to see a true quality race simulator come to the system. I’m sure this iteration of Forza will be better than the first but SimBin is still better than MS at this.

and on…
thousands of add-on skins, custom leagues, for GTR2(PC) for free \> no add on capability or self modification for Xbox 360.
Ability to create your own 3D models and import into PC version \> unpossible with Xbox 360.
GTR2 for PC= $20
GTR2 for X360 = ~ $60, maybe more?
Graphics on GTR2(PC) \> GTR2 for Xbox.
and on and on…

You sure they won’t “dumb down” the physics to appease the masses? The sim is better than Forza, but will your average console consumer be able to deal with a true full sim?

No its very limited. There is one track and 8 or 10 cars.
