That game sucks ***. You get more money for making your car look as gay as possible. NFS Most Wanted is 10 times better and Forza 2 is blow both of those away.

I've been stuck in PGR3 land... pisses me off that I can't tune the car like in GT3 though. What kind of stuff can you do to the car in F2? Suspension settings? Engine combos obviously but what types? How granular can you control it, or is it just an updated version of GT3 with a different name.

yeah i bought NFS Most Wanted and it came with NFSU 1 and 2. but i cant afford an XBox 360 so right now its the best game i can find. and honestly you can make some pretty cool loking cars. i race with either a GTO or Mustang (usually the Mustang) and i just have a Celica and Audi A3 for the ratings.

R3d, you can do a whole lotta **** in Forza 2. Engine swaps, drivetrain swaps, tuning every aspect of the suspension. Adjusting caster/camber, dampers, ride height, downforce, brakes, roll bars, and many others. You can even bring up this telemetry thing while your driving and it shows you the caster/camber while your driving, how much power your making at what rpms, and a lot more, and then you can go tune the car based on this information. They now even have different makes of tires that have different ratings based on grip, life, and responsiveness. You can put wider tires on as well. There is so much in this damn game it's ridiculous. Not to mention how addictive it is. I love PGR3, but this takes the cake.

I'll tell you right now that GT has nothing on Forza.

I don't have Forza 2 but in Forza (1) you can do stuff like..

-Front/reare tire pressure adjustment
-Gear ratio adjustments, F.D./1/2/3/4/5 for speed/accel
-Caster/Camber adjustment
-Anti-roll (soft/stiff for front and back)
-Springs, soft/stiff for front and back, ride hight (front/bacK)
-Bump/rebound damping
-Downforce on front and rear (if you have an adjustable body kit thingy)


And then as far as upgrades go you got your
-Engine tuning
-intake/exhaust
-Fuel/ignition system
-Turbocharger
-Supercharger
-intercooler
-engine swap
-Suspension
-Brakes
-Transmission
-Clutch/flywheel
-Weight reduction
-tires
-Differential
-Roll cage

and then you got the appearance stuff

Don't do PS3. My friend has one and he has been playing his Xbox 360 way more. What kind of games would you be playing anyways?
