GT4 vs Forza 2 Video: Car physic Comparison
2007-12-28 16:42:00 This video goes into detail with a comparison of car physics in GT4 vs Forza 2, this is quite impressive and I was not even aware gamers really cared about things in this much detail. For me the graphics in GT4 are much better, but Forza 2 is better for customization, damage, smoke effects and skid ...

Forza 2 DLC on Friday
2007-12-03 09:46:00 Nothing like posting news for yourself - am I the only one that still plays this? Anyway I can now enjoy 11 new cars (400 points) and 1 new track (100 points). The track did feature in Forza 1. No news yet as to which one it is - I’m hoping Road America (there is a hint it could be because RA is mentioned in the credits) but it could anything from Tokyo, Blue Mountain, Alpine Raceway anyway for the full news check out the weekly pitpass at forzamotorsport.net

Forza 2 to cause frustration for holiday Xbox 360 buyers?
2007-10-13 04:31:00 With the announcement from Microsoft this week on packing in two free games to those who purchase an Xbox 360 this holiday season, many gamers may experience firsthand the unresolved problems of one of the titles. Along with Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Microsoft Game Studios' acclaimed racer Forza Motorsport 2 will be bundled into every Xbox 360 console and Xbox 360 Elite by the end of October. That's where the problem may lie for many who will take advantage of this holiday season's bundles. At the official Forzamotorsport.net Forums, over 350 gamers have complained about Xbox 360s freezing or dying after playing Forza 2. The game's developer, Turn 10 Studios, insists that "faulty Xbox 360s are more vulnerable" to Forza 2. That, however, was months ago. Gamers continue to plead with Turn 10 to address the freezing issue, but it seems that they are being given the cold-shoulder. This is where the decision to include Forza Motorsport 2 in the holiday bundles co...

‘Twisters’ 500,000 Credit Forza 2 Challenge
2007-07-05 16:34:00 Icon suggested a challenge Twisters lap event for the Snippets meet this weekend. Challenge is I set a lap time at a circuit of my choice and using a car of my choice - with any upgrades I choose then you have to beat it using the same car. Well I accept my end of the challenge - do you? The circuit of choice is Sebring International Raceway. The car is a Ferrari 430 with no upgrades. Once my lap time is set I will gift the car to Icon so he can take it along to the meet. The thing is what’s the point of a challenge without any prize - none! So I’ll chuck in a prize. Everyone that beats my time will receive the Ferrari 430 as a gift car. Now to add some real incentive to beat my time and to add some competition amongst you guys I’m going to put up a prize fund of 500,000 credits. The driver with the fastest lap will win 250,000; the remaining 250,000 credits will then be shared on a percentage basis. So for example, if 3 of you beat my time and say driver 1 i...

BUZZ: Racism is everywhere. Even Forza 2.
2007-07-04 05:47:00 This 1957 Mercedes 300SL is just one of several vehicles emblazoned with user-designed hate speech available for purchase through Forza 2's online auction mode.The debate around an appropriate reaction is pretty evenly split between three points of view:This kind of stuff shouldn't make it to auction and the user responsible should be banned.Yeah it's offensive but the user is entitled to their opinion. If you don't like it, don't buy it.Who cares? I'm not pro-Nazi but that's a nice paint-job.I've been arguing the first case and I'd like to paraphrase some of my comments over at Joystiq to explain why.Put yourself in the shoes of a Jewish person who's ancestors have been executed during the holocaust. The car would make you feel physically sick with disgust and outrage. Why should such people have to experience that just so some idiot with nothing to contribute to the world can voice his valueless hate speech?Others have argued that the car should remain on auction because...

Forza 2 Motorsport
2007-06-16 23:57:00 One of the late gems on the original Xbox was a racing title called Forza Motorsport. Dubbed by many as a Gran Turismo killer, the game delivered one of the best console racing experiences ever. Unlike the usual fare on the system (Project Gotham and its ilk), Forza brought in a realistic simulation racing title complete with damage, online play and both performance and aesthetic car customization. Forza was one of the top Xbox games by the end of the system’s life cycle, making Forza 2 was one of the top anticipated games for the Xbox 360.Forza Motorsport 2 brings the same, albeit refined experience to the Xbox 360. Forza 2 brings improvements and upgrades from the last installment in the series, causing the experience to ultimately feel familiar, yet new. However, many gamers will have to weigh in the improvements to see if Forza 2 is worth the price. This may seem like a strange thing to say, especially since this review ultimately scores it highly, and I will firmly hold my gr...

Forza 2 Review
2007-06-08 01:22:00 I started playing Forza 2 about 1 week ago and I have to say I may be a little bit addicted. From the millions of ways to customize your car, to the ever-so-heated races, I find it very hard to put the controller down. Here are some highlights: Same Console Multi-Player Woes: Though the game is oh-so fun, I wish they would do something about their same console multi-player race set-up. When racing multi-player on the same console, there is not a guest option allowing a friend to join you on a race through XBOX live. Many successful games have implemented this feature including Gears of War. It is nice option to have especially when you have a friend visiting. I do understand why XBOX does this. They want to get the most bang for their buck by pushing more people to sign-up for XBOX Live accounts. Of course, this wouldn’t be a big deal if you were able to add computer opponents to race against while off-line. However, if you race on the same console, you do not have that opti...

Holy crap the ultimate xbox360 forza 2 setup tripleHD + triple360 + ...
2007-05-27 04:37:00 All i can say is HELL YAZ, for those that don't know one of the new experiences that forza 2 adds is the ability to link together 3 xbox360's and 3 HDTV's for the ultimate HiDef racing experiences. These guys went all out, full 5.1 surround sound, and no, no discount furniture here either, full leather racing seat, the wicked forza 2 racing wheel, triple hidef monitors and well... The result is just astonishing, can you imagine a setup like this? I mean its running at 60fps, with 300+fps physics calculations full force feedback and all at a massive resolution? Yes ok sure its out of just about everyones price range, but if you have 3 HiDef monitors, and a 360, technically when the 360 price drop does come it won't be that bad :) HEHE But then again who the hell has 3 HiDef tv's especially 3 that are the same size or would look decent next to each other :( Source: GadgetScoop

Forza 2 brings the 360 Force Feedback wheel, at even better cost point!
2007-05-26 19:42:00 Well if your like me and dieing to get your Forza 2 on, and haven't picked up the wicked Microsoft driving wheel with full force feedback and rumble. Well nows the time to get it, yes the wheel worked with PGR3 and other racing games, but the fact is from the original Microsoft said the wheel was designed for forza 2. Apparently thee fact that the wheel works spectacularly with Forza 2, and its 300fps physics calculations and full force feedback implementation. Forza 2 is also bringing the Wireless wheel to alltime new low price points so that pretty much anyone can afford it right now. The MSRP is now $129.99 but that's not all 360Fanboy found prices for the wheel have dropped below $100 at both Best Buy and Future Shop, whilst PC Nation has it at $103.97. So if you didn't pick up the wheel months ago for pgr, now is the time to pick her up and rock some fully supported and designed for, Forza Motorsport 2 goodness! Source: XboxIC

Forza 2 Demo, to be the most wicked ever? 24 Cars!
2007-04-16 09:57:00 You know when you think of a game demo especially a car demo for a console or PC it's normally 1 maybe 2 cars that you get a choice of with 1 or 2 tracks. On top of that customization and just about every feature of the game is turned off. So what wicked features does the forza 2 team have in store for us to make it's demo the most wicked racing game demo to date? Turn 10's team revealed that the April demo is being developed alongside the actual game and will include 24 different cars from various car classes. What will be missing is any sort of online multiplayer or customization, features you'll only get with a $60 purchase. The Pit Pass also hints at in-game video footage that will be making its way through the inter-tubes sometime this week from two different media sources. And, for all you crazy car audio fans out there, you'll be pleased to know that Forza 2's dev team has gone above and beyond. Seriously, listen to this stuff from the game. Ok so it won't come w...
