Is it really better than GT4? I can't imagine it being without the steering wheel.

not from an xbox, Forza, or GT4 fan pov I would have to say its a must buy for any racer. Very Sweet.

I don't give a flying fukc what "every paid by micro$haft reviewer" has to say about the game - it is an arcade racer with some fun aspects- but is far from "realistic" - it is no where near GT4 in graphics - and their verson of some imortant tracks have been optimized for insane arcade style racing speeds and laps.

Forza in NOT better than GT4 - other than AI (in some modes and on some tracks) it is just different.

I have tried Forza with the Fanatec wheel - compared to GT4 with the Logitech DFP it is quite pathetic - really.

And after having a go at GTR on the PC with the DFP even GT4 needs a littl work in some places.

And don't even get me started on the Froza version of the Northloop - what an arcade mode flatout racing joke.

Again - modded to allow insane arcade speeds with modded Enzos.

Now, combined with the decals and painting custom skins, and some fun custom race settings - the game is fun - but that's it.

RC45 you are at an all time low in your posting career, seriosuly when I used my older account I wasn't as bad as you are now. If its unrealisitic you can tell that to the owner of Road Atlanta who reviewed the game and was amazed by it. I have to admit the cars are off in performance most of the time even my beloved Ford GT am I argueing over it no. RC you have to figure out when a game been beaten on its own ground, but I will respect your oppinion and i'm not here to start a flame war.
