Nothing like Racing simulators to make me scream in frustration and throw the effing controller to the other side of the room.
No thanks,I'll stick to unrealistic racing games.In other words Mario kart Wii where are you?
(You better effing include a kart less Sonic Nintendo)

I think you need both anger and expectation management help.
Mr.ESC @ Feb 8th 2008 12:55PM
I was taking anger management but I beat the crap out of the therapist for calling me violent.
So are you calling me violent? you little **** you son of a *****ing ****** ,I’m going to tear up your****** and shove them right up your ***** ****** ****** and then ****** **** ***** on your ******* ***** with ****** **** in the ***** and **** *** ****** ****** you **** so then you have to ****** sideways *****.
LK reference ftw.

It's not cool when you have to tell everyone you're making a specific reference
common sense ftw!

You think that PGR4 is a racing SIM? Lol far from it. It is a nice game but to call this a SIM would be like calling... well Mario Kart a SIM racer.
tcc3 @ Feb 8th 2008 12:30PM
It may not be a sim, but it has very good driving dynamics and handling.
Its a realisitc arcade racer - thats how I'd put it.
IceOrb @ Feb 8th 2008 12:33PM
Yeah that sounds about right. Not quite realistic enough to be a SIM and yet not "fake" enough to be an arcade racer.
Sloar @ Feb 8th 2008 12:36PM
Am I correct in reading that you have to pay to download additional achievements? What the eff is that?!
IceOrb @ Feb 8th 2008 12:44PM
Not like that is something new to xbox360 DLC. Nothing says that the developer is obligated to give that additional 250 achievement points away in DLC for free. If nothing else look at it as you getting your moneys worth. And at 400 points it really isn't that bad of a deal considering the other things you get.
spodi @ Feb 8th 2008 12:46PM
my guess is it is the way of the future, nickle and dime the games up so you do not realize that you paying over $100 for it by the time it is all said and done with

just glad to see that bizarre is stilling putting out dlc for a MS published game since they got bought up by activision. though that might have been in the contract...

"1987 BMW M3 E30 DTM". that would be maybe the greatest BMW ever made. Forza included it in their December car pack, too. Its about time racing games realize they need to begin including this car...

I say Micro should add none existent cars :) Like the Ferrari F90 :P
Oh, and the Micra :)

"Having won more road races than any other model in history, the E30 M3 is considered by many to be the world's most successful road race car."
Amen to that.
Doug Kaplan @ Feb 8th 2008 2:02PM
Maybe I'm lame but tourist mode sounds cool and a great free addition that I'd be curious to try out.
ThornedVenom @ Feb 8th 2008 2:22PM
That Peugeot Flux looks gorgeous.
pcgamer11 @ Feb 8th 2008 3:30PM
yay for FREE content.
pcgamer11 @ Feb 8th 2008 3:32PM
especially with that beautiful rain dripping off of it... *dr00l*
why not the LS2/LS7? @ Feb 8th 2008 3:39PM
Wow, suddenly I do care when my 360 comes back from being fixed (again).
t_m @ Feb 8th 2008 9:23PM
Why yay for free content that should/could have been in the game from the start?
Maybe i'm just suspicious, but is this trend of announcing new DLC the day after release, for download a month after the release, a way to stop people selling their copies after 3 days and reduce the impact of the 2nd-hand market?

"Seven new cars - Including the "1987 BMW M3 E30 DTM," whatever that means"
Olaf Manthey won the Norisring round of the 1987 DTM in this car..
