Driving without assists might be fun if you're on your own in a free session, but when it comes to racing online with powerful cars, you generally need traction control on to be competitive.

No you don't, you just need to have throttle control. Driving without traction control is faster.
More fun too

Just watched the vid - awesome

Looks a nice track!

I'm gonna go home on my dinner break and download it. It's a 7 mile drive, hopefully I can get a lap in before I need to come back. Maybe with some heroic driving on the way

I remember doing this for FM2 demo too.

Gold only

Good job I saved a trial for an emergency such as this.

EDIT: What a con. My 48 hour Xbox live "Gold" trial as it says on the card, only ups my account level to Xbox live "gameplay". Maybe i'll have to look into a cheap 3 month code or something. Actually, scratch that. I'll take my HDD to my brothers and download it there.

Probably a good idea to keep it separate.

First race impressions, Menu's are gorgeous, model looks awesome in there, nice upgrade in game graphics not mind blowing though, replays much improved, feels like fm2 with a bit more weight to the cars, sounds pretty nice.

Disable notifications because it becomes a complete slide show when someone signs in.

But whatever.

Woo I added it to the queue from work using xbox.com and got someone at home to turn the console on. Should have it by home time.

How cool is that?

GreenMint · 24 Sep 2009 at 13:13

That blackjack video was insanely good, brightened up my lunch hour

Xbox will be going on the second I get back in and that demo is coming down

GreenMint · 24 Sep 2009 at 18:38

Wow, absolutely LOVING this

Feels like Forza 2 and just so much more! More in touch, more real, more fun and looks stunning

4 weeks...wow, long, but so not!

Hopefully I won't encounter that goit who REVERSED into me at the start of a cat & mouse session.

GreenMint · 24 Sep 2009 at 19:06

Oh hai!

I can has Range Rover?

Ampeg · 24 Sep 2009 at 19:08

Heh, in my first online race the guy infront of me reversed at the start and my car wasnt competitve enough to catch the field up. In my second race I was so comprehensively taken out on the first corner that my top speed was limited to around fourty mph for the whole race! Once id found some good people to play with I played F2 to death.

I was excited enough about 3, now Ive played the demo I just cant wait to get online with the game.
