I haven't played mine yet, I didn't realise it was here till I got in this morning or I'd have swung by the office last night to pick it up.

Not sure I'll be able to play it online either - I've got a debug console. Lonely gaming for me.

I'm just downloading update data for mine. Been a pretty arduous task so far, ballache attached to a debug console I guess. I've had to tweak a load of settings to get it online, based on directions from Sony.

Got a few minutes before I know if I can get on but my PSN username is alexgrantuk

its pretty good, handling is more realistic probably better with a steering wheel. the go carts are nuts. i have only really done the licences and a quick shot of the game.
i cant see where the 1000 cars are unless you have to download them or win them. but still will be a good game.

Massively disappointed in this, waited 3 years or so! The game uses the same
Engine as gt4 and is massively inferior to forza 3! I mean examples are that there's no clutch wtf! Also the fixed camera makes it feel like the track is moving not the car. The sensitivity of the controls is awful, who chooses to use x as a variable throttle? When modifying the cars it's too basic stage 1 and stage 2 malarky! Where's the brake upgrades, doubling the power and you can't even upgrade the brakes! :(

Apparently you can, but not until later in the game with more experience.

Same with the handling/physics, abit samey with lower power cars, but once you get to the 'proper' cars and fairly indepth gameplay the physics come into their own and are on another level. 

Wierd, but ... so im told. ;) ;D

i think your right cos if you go to tune when in the garage there is a part for brakes in there. i think you will unlock a few things later in the game, cos you have to unlock most of the cars. at the end of the day this game is not forza, some ways gt5 is better and some some ways forza is better.
