Forza 2 racing wheel tuning possible through DiRT

Jun 10th 2007 4:21PM (Joystiq Xbox)
I've been playing forza 2 non stop since it came out....and I'm hooked but come on...is anybody denying that the graphics are like xbox one quality with better anti-aliasing and framerate. Seriously the crowds of people cheering are pathetic...it's distracting. Believe me the physics are top notch...but driving a lambo in forza is nothing like the REAL thing...the graphics just distract from all the hard work turn 10 put everywhere else. Gran tursimo had 10 times better replays...which was my favorite part....watching my race when I was done racin. NOW! the second I played the Dirt demo on my 24 LCD...cranked the sound...I was immersed....it's really good...the grass is 3d...the blur is nice...everything just feels polished...they even modeled some descent driver models for inside the car...unlike forza who use some lame ass dummy with a silver visor. The controls are not nearly as refined as forza or Gran turismo but the feeling I get when I put the hood view or cockpit view are just awsome...and in that regards...it's just as realistic...
Don't get me wrong I'm an amateur motorcycle racer so I will always stick with simulations...but DIRT OWWWWWWNNNNSSSSSSSS FORZA.....it actually looks like a NEXT GEN game...whatever that means....

Metareview - MotoGP 06 (Xbox 360)

Aug 19th 2006 12:26AM (Joystiq)
I'm about 75% done with the 2006 GP championship and I've won every race. I can honestly say that this game is terrible. I've been experiencing the same frame rate issues as everybody else. I went straight from unplugging my ps2 with tourist trophy to plugging in my shiny 360 with motogp 06...what a disapointment. First of all, the physics in touris trophy are a million times better, in motogp...the riders seem notchy and cartoony. Of course, it doesn't help that everything is sped up to make you feel like you are going faster...

No really...if you want an arcade game...knock yourself out...I should have waited for the ps3 :(
