You raged on and on when he did it, so now you're going to do it - and it's okay or funny? Just trying to understand the rules on how that works.

Not like it matters all that much to me personally. I like when GOOD looking pictures are posted.

You've posted MORE than the next two biggest posters in this thread combined - often upset at what people are saying, and sometimes complaining - but often arguing out of contempt. Now it's all jokes though.

If anyone is feeding the thread, it's you. That was just posted. The amount of times you've defensively and disjointedly responded to this thread outnumbers the entire post count of some hdd members.

Mischaracterizing the argument still. It's a simple, and obvious form of deflection.

You're serious when you think you're winning, and "only joking" when you know your posts look poor.

Off-topic, trying to elevate the discussion you're running from to a personal level.

I like gran turismo a lot more even though I own Xbox 360, I tried Forza and just don't like the levels and features. Turismo is a lot more organized.

[miDnIghtEr]

LMAO, i can just imagine the ranting and raving going on from the third highest poster in this thread.... who ironically won't be buying this game, because he has no 360.

anyways... WI 2.0....

a new Forza 3 steering wheel? i sure hope it's good so mikey can try out some Forza this time around...

Los Angeles, CA) – June 1, 2009 – Fanatec®, a leading brand of high-end input devices for game consoles and PCs, today announced that its lineup of Porsche® 911 Turbo S Racing Wheels for Xbox® 360™, which are offered in three different versions (911 Turbo S Edition, Clubsport Edition, and Pure Edition), will be fully supported by Microsoft for its soon to be released Xbox 360 title, Forza Motorsport 3. During this year’s E3 Expo (June 2-4, 2009) in Los Angeles, CA, the wheels will be featured in the Microsoft booth (booth # 1523, South Hall) on Forza racing pods throughout the show.

The wheels, which will be playable for the first time at the E3 Expo, introduce new features to the Xbox 360. Developed by Fanatec in collaboration with Turn 10 Studios, a Redmond, Washington-based video game developer, these features are set to provide the ultimate simracing experience on the Xbox 360 and include the following: a 900° steering rotation, clutch, sequential shifter,6+1 H-pattern shifter, and force feedback effects, which are automatically detected by the game.

“For Xbox 360 fans seeking the ultimate driving experience, nothing brings the Forza Motorsport 3 experience to life better than the new racing wheels from Fanatec,” said Dan Greenawalt, game director, Turn 10.

Key features for all wheels include :

* Official licensed for Xbox 360 (fully compatible with PC and other platforms as well)
* Backwards compatible with existing games on the Xbox 360 Wireless connection with Xbox 360 and wireless connection through RF dongle to PC (new and improved technology) – Optional cable connection to PC and other platforms
* Hand stitched leather wheel rim with large diameter
* 3 Force Feedback motors and smooth belt drive - deliver sensational realism
* Two gear sticks included: 6+1 speed and sequential

For detailed information, images and pricing on all three wheels, go to www.FANATEC.com.

If you managed to pull in the reigns and hold off on Fanatec's wireless Porsche 911 Turbo Racing Wheel back in April, you can get a beautiful alternative right about now with even more utility. Today, the outfit has introduced the limited edition Porsche 911 Turbo S Racing Wheel for Xbox 360 -- which, contrary to its name, actually plays nice with the PlayStation 3 and PC. Of note, there are three variants from which to choose: a 911 Turbo S Edition, Clubsport Edition, and Pure Edition, all of which are licensed by Porsche Lizenz- und Handelsgesellschaft mbH and feature a 900° steering angle. You'll also find a 6+1 shifter, and if you opt for the Clubsport Edition, you'll get high-end pedals that are actually crafted from aluminum and feature a load cell pressure sensor for the brake. The pain? $250, $400 and $150 in order of mention, 90% of which is totally paying for that logo in the middle.

Cost is kinda high tho.

i will certainly compare reviews to my logitech wheel, however it's pretty obvious that the logo is inflating the cost.
the construction of the wheel looks shoddy though, especially the "leather". perhaps it's a mock-up.
not sure why this company gets a license to release a 3rd party wheel, but logitech gets the finger.

perhaps you'll play forza this time around too?

Also, your pseudo-ignore scheme is hilarious. "you're on ignore!!(except for the fact that I'll read your responses whenever I can peek, and then I'll talk about you in my posts, wondering what you're saying)"....

That tactic is pretty childish, but expected

thanks for posting that pic... mine wouldn't show up on the post. i agree.. too much money for them, and i don't use a wheel anyways... but for the people who love to use them... looks like a solid one. anyhoo...

surfin, reno and a couple others will be on Forza 2 tonight if you want to play with us again... anyone else is welcome to join also. time to dust off the ol game. says on xbox.com that we haven't played since the last time we were online playing together. as the kids say... Holla!

It's a cool looking wheel but the GT3 version is, personally, way better. But I'd opt for the G25 Logitech wheel over this which I'm hoping MS opens up their compatibility list... I know I said this before but doesn't MS own Logitech now?!! I'd only opt for the new, soon to be released, G26 (?) wheel since it takes the G25 and made it better

wow... uhmm.. ok.

Here see if this helps

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sarcasm

You posted that same video 3 times saying it looks fantastic and kept complaining that nobody was commenting on it......then when people did coment on it (and the various screen caps) and point out that no actually the graphics aren't that good.....the textures are lousy and their are many graphics glitches.....you start telling us that it's not finished yet so why are we commenting on the graphics........

I was sacrcastically saying you didnt want us to comment on the pictures.....that's why "didn't" was in italics you know.......to draw attention to the irony of you posting all those pictures and videos and then getting defensive when people point out to you that GT5:P released over a year ago looks better.

No 1080p doesnt make a bad game good or a good game bad......but it does make a game look better than the same game at 720p

Oh but I keep forgetting the rules.......if Forza cant do it but GT can it's not important..........if Forza can do it and GT cant it's the single most important feature in a racing game evvveeeeerrrrrrrr.......

And the day that Sucker Punch choose to describe inFAMOUS as the Definitive (tm) superhero game of this generation you will have a point. But they didn't......so you don't.

Or maybe you don't think that the Definitive (tm) racing game of this generation should have better graphics than a "glorified demo" released over a year ago?

WHO SAID THIS? is this just you making more shit up in your head? yep.. yep it is. because that's your posting style. you start coming up with all this shit in your own head, and start posting it like it's fact. like someone said it.

note to mods.. when can you start getting infractions for talking shit like that? you know.. the kind where you constantly start making stuff up, then posting it like it's fact without quotes or anything like that? can i start doing this too? ok.. let's give it a try.

so we have here for the sony fanboys...

1. sonyfanboys are rattled because they still don't have a finished full GT game in the year 2009 3 years after their console came out.

2. sony fanboys don't care about damage, and don't want damage. they don't hit walls, don't hit cars and drive perfect.

3. sony fanboys are saying that they love and rather have time taken off instead of damage, because like they said.. damage doesn't occur when they race...

4. sony fanboys are all about the grass graphics on racing games. nothing else matters.

5. ya.. well the ps2 outsells 360 in japan!!!!

hey.. xbots... what else can we just make up and post as a fact?

Wow!!!! Midnight........you sound a little........Oh what's the word?

Rattled

Just to clarify.

GT5:P does not take time off. If you hit another car or the barriers or take a short cut across the grass, then it limits the speed you can travel at for 5,10 or 15 seconds depending on the severity of the collision etc.

I actually think this is a good idea since it encourages you to have to keep a clean racing line.

Does Forza penalise you for cutting across the grass? Or are you alowed to take these "shortcuts"? (just curious I havent seen that in any of the videos posted)

In Forza 2 there's a small turn on Road Atlanta that if you go too fast you'll either wipe out because your on the edge of tarmac, dirt and tarmac again with the bumps on the road OR if you cut through the grass taking the turn too fast but missing the dirt T10 threw in a feature to slow the car significantly as it's a clear 'cheat'. I know this one by heart because for awhile I was too aggressive on this turn. On PC racing sim (forgot which one and which mod download), it's a corner I did by accident many times without being penalized. Not sure if the newer mod versions threw in coding to penalize the driver. Also, if you are at high speed and bump a wall, depending on the angle of impact you'll either graze off it with minor damage or it'll spin you out like it would in real life.

Nope, cant take shortcuts.
