In a brief and somewhat enthusiastic e-mail, Microsoft has today announced that Forza Motorsport 2 is expected to come roaring out of the development pits in May, straight into the open arms of driving enthusiasts. It could get messy, but getting down to the nitty-gritty and tweaking speeding hunks of metal until they reach peak performance is what the game is all about.
The official site has also been updated with a full track listing, which includes such exotically named locales as Nürburgring Nordschleife, Sunset Peninsula Infield and, err, Test Track. If you still crave satisfaction and insist on doing everything you can for za motorsport (OOF!), consider purchasing two more Xbox 360s and indulging in ludicrous, triple screen immersion (as seen above).

Damn, I only have 1 46" Sony rear projection LCD TV. What ever am I to do?

Did you know that if you had 3 copies of GT4 and 3 PS2's and 3 Tv's you could also set up a tripple screen setup in your home? However getting the networking correct was anything but user friendly.
nothing against forza, I plan on buying it as well.
But while in college it was fun to borrow 3 projectors from the university library for some triple screen GT4 action.

I don't necessarily think they should block them. I'd just like to have some kind of marker so that I could tell if a comment was another fanboy rant without having to read through. The star system worked OK, I'd like to see it somehow combined with a system like Engadget's so could could see both the quality of the poster and the individual post.

Because it adds nothing to any discussion about the actual article in question. There are a lot of people who come to this site that have very strong feelings about one particular console. Comments like yours only stir them up and derail the conversation from the actual topic.
As I mentioned before, I have no problem with people saying things like that. I just don't want to have to read through a bunch of mindless comments, that are wholly unrelated to the article, just to find the ones that are worth reading.

The major gripe about the original was the severe lack of tracks to race on. Excellent, so we now have to pay more to get a high-res version of the original game WITH less tracks?

It isn't a hi-res version of Forza with several tracks removed. It is a hi-res sequel to Forza with all new tracks. The total number is lower than the original, but it is a different game. This isn't a GranTurismo HD thing. It is a new game.
It will have improved physics and graphics. It will have solid Live support and hopefully be better than the original in many other ways we don't know yet. If you like realistic racing games like Grand Turismo, then Forza2 will be well worth your money. It is even more realistic and more accurate in the technical details of tuning your car. It will have less tracks and cars to choose from, likely, but will be mostly superior to GranTurismo in most ways, just like Forza1 over GranTurismo.
Or, it could flop. You just never know.

Oh well, the more tweaked the better! I can't wait to get some next-gen Forza on with the Wireless Steering Wheel :D

And this is the dawn of micro transactions. They are probably sitting on 3 or 4 original tracks as we speak.
